Abstract:
We present a search for a massive vector-like quark T, with charge 2$e$/3, that is pair-produced together with its antiparticle. In 2015, proton-proton collisions were collected by the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. We analyze 2.3 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity for evidence of T quark pair production, assuming the T quark is able to decay through three channels, bW, tZ, and tH. This search is performed in final states with one charged lepton and several jets.
