This page shows new CMS results presented at the International Conference on High-Energy Physics (ICHEP) during 4—11 July 2012 in Melbourne, including the searches for the Higgs boson, other new physics, and Standard Model measurements.
The results are based on up to XXX fb−1 (inverse femtobarns[1]) of proton-proton data recorded at a collision energy of 7 TeV in 2011 and up to XXX fb−1 at 8 TeV in 2012 (details vary for different results).

About CMS
More information may be found on the CMS web site: http://cern.ch/cms.
CMS is one of two general-purpose experiments at the LHC that have been built to search for new physics. It is designed to detect a wide range of particles and phenomena produced in the LHC's high-energy proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions and will help to answer questions such as: "What is the Universe really made of and what forces act within it?" and "What gives everything substance?" It will also measure the properties of well-known particles with unprecedented precision and be on the lookout for completely new, unpredicted phenomena. Such research not only increases our understanding of the way the Universe works, but may eventually spark new technologies that change the world in which we live as has often been true in the past.
The conceptual design of the CMS experiment dates back to 1992. The construction of the gigantic detector (15 m diameter by nearly 29 m long with a weight of 14000 tonnes) took 16 years of effort from one of the largest international scientific collaborations ever assembled: more than 3100 scientists and engineers from 169 institutions and research laboratories distributed in 39 countries all over the world.

It is common in particle physics, where mass and energy are often interchanged, to use eV/c2, where c is the speed of light in a vacuum (from E = mc2). Even more common is to use a system of natural units with c set to 1 (hence, E = m), and simply use eV as a unit of mass. (Source: Wikipedia)
