Search for WWW production with data collected by the CMS Detector at √s = 13 TeV

ORAL

Abstract

We present a search for WWW production at √s = 13 TeV with 35.9 fb-1 of data collected by the CMS detector. The analysis is performed in the same-signed dilepton and trilepton final states. The former final state arises from the production of W±W±W, where two W bosons decay leptonically, while the third W boson decays hadronically. The latter final state results from the purely leptonic decays of the W boson. In addition, we also probe the existence of anomalous quartic gauge couplings and place limits on Wilson coefficients associated with dim-8 CP conserving operators. The existence of a photo-phobic axion-like particle, that is expected to decay into a triboson final state, is also explored.
