Top quarks take the t-channel express at 5.02 TeV
For the first time, the CMS experiment measures the production of single top quarks in a mode called the “t-channel” at 5.02 TeV, reporting results aligned with the standard model expectations.
-
CMS has sharpened its eyesight for highly collimated electron-positron pairs
The CMS collaboration has developed a new technique to distinguish electron-positron pairs travelling so closely together that we see them as a single cluster of deposited energy.

Beyond the script: Does the Higgs boson improvise in its interactions?
By observing decays of Higgs bosons into pairs of photons, the CMS experiment probes anomalous interactions, including those between Higgs bosons and W/Z bosons or gluons when all particles are replaced with their antiparticles and space is reflected.

First ever oxygen and neon LHC collisions are studied by CMS
This year, the LHC is colliding more than protons and lead ions: oxygen and neon have also made it into the collider, and are being studied by CMS and the other LHC experiments in order to understand the early universe!

Chasing light-weight particles in Higgs boson decays using pairs of electrons
The CMS experiment sets limits for BSM particles down to tens-of-MeV aided by machine learning techniques.

Teaching machines to see the invisible: the DeepMET algorithm
The CMS experiment employs a new machine-learning algorithm to improve the reconstruction of invisible particles.

B* mesons are excited to (finally) show up
For the first time ever, the excited states of three beauty mesons are fully reconstructed and their masses are measured directly, using data from the CMS experiment.

CMS at LHCP 2025
The CMS Collaboration announced 14 new results for LHCP 2025. In top quark physics, CMS presents the first observation of production of a single top quark in association with a W and a Z boson.

Search for boosted Higgs advances our understanding of dark matter
The CMS Collaboration hunts for Higgs bosons recoiling against dark matter particles Dark matter is one of the most perplexing mysteries of our universe, accounting for roughly 27% of its total energy.
