1 Highlights of Recent CMS Results Dmytro Kovalskyi (UCSB)
2 Introduction Number of CMS publication is over 0 already It is very hard to review all the recent results in one talk This talk concentrates on a few topics: Higgs Searches Dark Matter Searches Searches for Physics Beyond the Standard Model Complete information about all CMS results: May 8, 0
3 Standard Model at 7 TeV Standard Model is explored in details Higgs is next... May 8, 0
4 Higgs Search Results 95% CL limit on!/! SM CMS Preliminary Observed Expected (68%) s = 7 TeV Expected (95%) L = fb LEP excluded CMS excluded Best fit!/! SM CMS Preliminary s = 7 TeV L = fb 68% CL band Higgs boson mass (GeV) Higgs boson mass (GeV) Only narrow range is still allowed: [47.5] GeV Largest deviation from background: 5GeV -.σ global significance for 45 GeV window Consistent with the excess in ATLAS Phys.Lett.

H WW weight is defined as /μ, i.e. inverse expected signal strength squared Currently not a single channel has sensitivity to see Higgs at ~5 GeV H γγ and H WW have same sensitivity in the region of interest H ZZ 4 is close and can improve in future Convenient mass to measure all couplings H ττ and H bb while contribute less, will soon provide unique information about couplings May 8, 0 5

7 Expectations for Exclusion in 0 5/fb(0) + 5/fb (0) 5/fb(0) + 5/fb (0) Projections take into account observed 0 results By ICHEP 0 we may have ~ 5/fb If Higgs doesn t exist we should exclude it at 95% CL with ~60% probability By the end of 0 if LHC performs CMS will have enough sensitivity to certainly exclude Higgs in low mass range May 8, 0 7
8 Expectations for Discovery in 0 5/fb(0) + 5/fb (0) 5/fb(0) + 5/fb (0) Projections take into account observed 0 results By ICHEP 0 we may have ~ 5/fb If Higgs exist and its mass is around 5 GeV the local significance is likely to increase from ~σ to 4σ By the end of 0 CMS should be able to discover Higgs at 5σ for Higgs masses above 0GeV May 8, 0 8
9 Dark Matter
10 Dark Matter at Collider Dark matter existence is well established based on gravitational effects We don t know what it is, but in the best case it s weakly interacting In the detector it s undetectable as neutrinos Large amount of dark matter in the Universe suggests that it can have reasonably high interaction rate with Standard Model particles LHC can produce Dark Matter via the same process that is used in direct (dark matter-nucleon scattering) and indirect (dark matter annihilation) searches May 8, 0
11 Dark Matter Production May 8, 0

13 Dark Matter Production at LHC Direct Detection Mono-jet partonic production For heavy mediator (M>0GeV), mono-jet production is ~ 00 larger than direct-detection one For light mediator, mono-jet production is smaller than the direct-detection one If DM is observed in direct-detection experiments and not at LHC it can suggest existence of a light mediator May 8, 0
14 Dark Matter Search Results Collider results dominate in spin dependent searches Cover low mass range for spin independent searches May 8, 0 4
