@article{10902/13965, year = {2015}, month = {5}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10902/13965}, abstract = {Five mutually exclusive searches for supersymmetry are presented based on events in which b jets and four W bosons are produced in proton–proton collisions at vs = 8 TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb-1, were collected with the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2012. The five studies differ in the leptonic signature from the W boson decays, and correspond to all-hadronic, single-lepton, opposite-sign dilepton, same-sign dilepton, and =3 lepton final states. The results of the five studies are combined to yield 95% confidence level limits for the gluino and bottom-squark masses in the context of gluino and bottom-squark pair production, respectively. In the limit when the lightest supersymmetric particle is light, gluino and bottom squark masses are excluded below 1280 and 570 GeV, respectively.}, publisher = {Elsevier}, publisher = {Physics Letters B, Vol. 745, Pp. 5–28, 2015}, title = {Searches for supersymmetry based on events with b jets and four W bosons in pp collisions at 8 TeV}, author = {Khachatryan, Vladimir and Brochero Cifuentes, Javier Andrés and Cabrillo Bartolomé, José Iban and Calderón Tazón, Alicia and Duarte Campderros, Jorge and Fernández García, Marcos and Gómez Gramuglio, Gervasio and Graziano, Alberto and López Virto, María Amparo and Marco de Lucas, Jesús and Marco de Lucas, Rafael José and Martínez Rivero, Celso and Matorras Weinig, Francisco and Muñoz Sánchez, Francisca Javiela and Piedra Gómez, Jonatan and Rodrigo Anoro, Teresa and Rodríguez Marrero, Ana Yaiza and Ruiz Jimeno, Alberto and Scodellaro, Luca and Vila Álvarez, Iván and Vilar Cortabitarte, Rocío}, }
