Search for Single and Pair-Production of Dijet Resonances with the CMS Detector

Understand

Searches for new physics in the single and paired dijet mass spectrum are performed using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC at a collision energy of sqrt{s}=7 or sqrt{s}=8 TeV.

• No evidence for new physics is found and upper limits are set for various models.
• At 95% confidence level, a string resonance in the single dijet spectrum is excluded for masses between 1 and 4.7 TeV and, for the first time, a coloron in the paired dijet spectrum is excluded for masses between 250 and 740 GeV.
