Recent results of the searches for Supersymmetry in final states with one or two leptons at CMS are presented. Many Supersymmetry scenarios, including the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (CMSSM), predict a substantial amount of events containing leptons, while the largest fraction of Standard Model background events -which are QCD interactions -gets strongly reduced by requiring isolated leptons. The analyzed data was taken in 2011 and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of approximately L = 1 fb −1 . The center-of-mass energy of the pp collisions was √ s = 7 TeV.

CMS is a general purpose experiment, designed to study the physics of pp collisions at 14 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It currently involves more than 2000 physicists from more than 150 institutes and 37 countries. The LHC will provide extraordinary opportunities for particle physics based on its unprecedented collision energy and luminosity when it begins operation in 2007.The principal aim of this report is to present the strategy of CMS to explore the rich physics programme offered by the LHC. This volume demonstrates the physics capability of the CMS experiment. The prime goals of CMS are to explore physics at the TeV scale and to study the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking-through the discovery of the Higgs particle or otherwise. To carry out this task, CMS must be prepared to search for new particles, such as the Higgs boson or supersymmetric partners of the Standard Model particles, from the start-up of the LHC since new physics at the TeV scale may manifest itself with modest data samples of the order of a few fb −1 or less. The analysis tools that have been developed are applied to study in great detail and with all the methodology of performing an analysis on CMS data specific benchmark processes upon which to gauge the performance of CMS. These processes cover several Higgs boson decay channels, the production and decay of new particles such as Z and supersymmetric particles, B s production and processes in heavy ion collisions. The simulation of these benchmark processes includes subtle effects such as possible detector miscalibration and misalignment. Besides these benchmark processes, the physics reach of CMS is studied for a large number of signatures arising in the Standard Model and also in theories beyond the Standard Model for integrated luminosities ranging from 1 fb −1 to 30 fb −1 . The Standard Model processes include QCD, B-physics, diffraction, detailed studies of the top quark properties, and electroweak physics topics such as the W and Z 0 boson properties. The production and decay of the Higgs particle is studied for many observable decays, and the precision with which the Higgs boson properties can be derived is determined. About ten different supersymmetry benchmark points are analysed using full simulation. The CMS discovery reach is evaluated in the SUSY parameter space covering a large variety of decay signatures.

We determine the top quark mass m t using t t pairs produced in the DO " detector by ͱsϭ1.8 TeV pp collisions in a 125 pb Ϫ1 exposure at the Fermilab Tevatron. We make a two constraint fit to m t in t t→bW ϩ b W Ϫ final states with one W boson decaying to qq and the other to e or . Likelihood fits to the data yield m t (lϩjets)ϭ173.3Ϯ5.6 (stat) Ϯ 5.5 (syst) GeV/c 2 . When this result is combined with an analysis of events in which both W bosons decay into leptons, we obtain m t ϭ172.1Ϯ5.2 (stat) Ϯ 4.9 (syst) GeV/c 2 . An alternate analysis, using three constraint fits to fixed top quark masses, gives m t (lϩjets)ϭ176.0 Ϯ7.9 (stat)Ϯ 4.8 (syst) GeV/c 2 , consistent with the above result. Studies of kinematic distributions of the top quark candidates are also presented. ͓S0556-2821͑98͒06815-5͔

We report the results of a polarized-2-beta-decay experiment carried out in the Fermilab Proton Center charged-hyperon beam. These results are based on 49 671 observed 2 -+ n e -V decays. The 2-beam had a nominal momentum of 250 GeV/c and was produced by 400-GeV/c protons impinging on a Cu target. At a production angle of 2.5 mrad, the polarization was (23.6f 4.31%. The decay asymmetries of the electron ( a , = -0.519+0.104), neutron ( a , = +0.509+0.102), and antineutrino (a,= -0.230f 0.061) were measured and used to establish sign and approximate magnitude of the axial-vector-to-vector form-factor ratio g , / f , . The form-factor ratios g , / f l / and f 2 / f were determined most sensitively from the neutron and electron center-of-mass spectra, respectively. We obtain 1 g , / f l -0.237g,/f1 =0.327i0.007i0.019 and f , ( O ) / f , ( 0 ) = -0.96 f0.07k0.13, where the stated errors are statistical and systematic, respectively. A general fit that includes the asymmetries and makes the conventional assumption g , =O gives the final value g , ( O ) / f , ( 0 ) = -0.328k0.019. The data are also compatible with positive values for g , / f , combined with corresponding reduced values for g , / f , / .
