title: "Total Covariance for 2017" of "Search for excited tau leptons in the $\tau\tau\gamma$ final state in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13\,\mathrm{TeV}$"

description: Background-only-fit total covariance matrix for all channels and regions. 
 Values are extracted from the Higgs Combine tool's fitDiagnostics option. 
 Please see associated image ("fitRegions.pdf") for guide on region and channel setup.
description: Results are presented for a test of the compositeness of the heaviest charged lepton, tau, using data collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV at the CERN LHC. The data were collected in 2016-2018 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 inverse femtobarn. This analysis searches for tau lepton pair production in which one of the tau leptons is produced in an excited state and decays to a ground state tau lepton and a photon. The event selection consists of two isolated tau lepton decay candidates and a high-energy photon. The mass of the excited tau lepton is reconstructed using the missing transverse momentum in the event, assuming the momentum of the neutrinos from each tau lepton decay are aligned with the visible decay products. No excess of events above the standard model background prediction is observed. This null result is used to set lower bounds on the excited tau lepton mass. For a compositeness scale lambda equal to the excited tau lepton mass, excited tau leptons with masses below 4700 GeV are excluded at 95% confidence level; for Lambda = 10 TeV this exclusion is set at 2800 GeV. This is the first experimental result covering this production and decay process in the excited tau mass range above 175 GeV.

title: "Fig. 2" of "Search for the Z boson decay to $\tau\tau\mu\mu$ in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV"

description: Distribution of $m_{4\mu}$ after the maximum likelihood fit of the background-only model (stacked histograms) to the data (black points). The nuisance parameters are set to their post-fit values and the signal (black dotted line) is overlaid, scaled to the upper limit on its cross section of 6.9 times the SM expectation. The gray shaded areas in both panels correspond to the total uncertainty in the background prediction. The black vertical bars indicate the statistical uncertainty in the data.
description: The first search for the Z boson decay to $\tau\tau\mu\mu$ at the CERN LHC is presented, based on data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $13\,\text{TeV}$ and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $138\,\text{fb}^{-1}$. The data are compatible with the predicted background. For the first time, an upper limit at the $95\%$ confidence level of 6.9 times the standard model expectation is placed on the ratio of the ${\text{Z}\to\tau\tau\mu\mu}$ to ${\text{Z}\to4\mu}$ branching fractions. Limits are also placed on the six flavor-conserving four-lepton effective-field-theory operators involving two muons and two tau leptons, for the first time testing all such operators.
