Searches for new physics in CMS in events with jets, leptons and photons in the final state

Recent results are presented from the CMS Collaboration on four searches for beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics in prompt, R-parity conserving final states that include jets, leptons, and/or photons. These searches explore previously uncovered regions of BSM parameter space involving unique signatures, a wide range of motivating models, and a powerful set of novel analysis techniques. Concepts such as low $p_\mathrm{T}^\mathrm{miss}$ signatures, stealth supersymmetry (SUSY), gauge-mediated SUSY breaking (GMSB), dark photon and dark Higgs models, and data scouting techniques are all covered in the featured analyses. In all cases, no significant excesses above SM expectations are observed, and limits are placed on various model interpretations, improving greatly upon previous limits in many portions of the parameter space or, in some cases, establishing the first-ever sets of such limits.
