The measured Drell-Yan production rates, normalised to the production rates in the Z-boson region, show good agreement with the theoretical predictions.

The observed numbers of events in both decay modes are consistent with those expected in the Standard Model.
Upper limits on the branching fraction have been determined at 90% and 95% confidence levels (CL).
The CMS collaboration is presenting its latest results this week at the 2011 Europhysics Conference on High-Energy Physics, held in Grenoble, France.
A number of EPS talks will be previewed centrally on Tuesday 19 and Wednesday 20 of July.
The schedule for these previews can be found on

The PAS of EXO-10-022 "Search for New Ditau Resonances in pp Collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV" is now public. You find it on CDS at
The PAS of EXO-11-005 "Search for T/t' decays to tZ in pp Collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV" is now public.
Building 40 at CERN is going to change its appearance. A beautiful 1:1 maxi-poster of CMS is being installed in the central hall. To celebrate the completion of this installation we would like to invite you to a short drink this coming Friday from 12 to 1PM.
CMS is now running with 1236 bunches of protons !
This year's LHC physics run started in March. Since then the machine has broken many records, bringing its luminosity — the number of proton-proton collisions per second — to much higher levels than expected for this year.
