Search for TeV top resonances into jets plus muon

Many physics models beyond the Standard Model predict heavy new particles preferentially decaying to top pairs. The first long physics run of LHC is expected to take place at a center-of-mass energy of 10 TeV, and to go on until an integrated luminosity of 200/pb has been collected. We search for re...

Sumario:Many physics models beyond the Standard Model predict heavy new particles preferentially decaying to top pairs. The first long physics run of LHC is expected to take place at a center-of-mass energy of 10 TeV, and to go on until an integrated luminosity of 200/pb has been collected. We search for resonances in the muon+jets channel of the top pairs mass spectrum for such a scenario. Due to the heavily boosted top quarks from these high-mass resonances, the standard top pair muon+jets selection fails and we present new methods for the selection and reconstruction of those events.
