Abstract: A search for the production of events containing three W bosons predicted by the standard model is reported. The search is based on a data sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC and corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$. The search is performed in final states with three leptons (electrons or muons), or with two same-charge leptons plus two jets. The observed (expected) significance of the signal for $ \mathrm{ W^{\pm} W^{\pm} W^{\mp} } $ production is 0.60 (1.78) standard deviations, and the ratio of the measured signal yield to that expected from the standard model is 0.34$^{+0.62}_{-0.34}$. Limits are placed on three anomalous quartic gauge couplings and on the production of massive axion-like particles. | ||

Summary |
A search for $ \mathrm{ W^{\pm} W^{\pm} W^{\mp} } $ production using proton-proton collision data at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV was presented. Events with either two same-sign leptons (electrons or muons) and two jets or with three leptons with total charge $\pm$1 were selected. The data were collected with the CMS experiment and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$. The dominant sources of standard model backgrounds include nonprompt leptons, three-lepton events such as those from the process ${\mathrm{W}\mathrm{Z}} \to3\ell\nu$, as well as ${\mathrm{W^{\pm}}\mathrm{W^{\pm}}}$+jets and ${\mathrm{t\bar{t}}\mathrm{W^{\pm}}}$ production. Predictions for these backgrounds were derived or validated using data in dedicated control regions. The observed (expected) significance for $ \mathrm{ W^{\pm} W^{\pm} W^{\mp} } $ production is 0.60 (1.78) standard deviations and the ratio of measured signal yield to that expected from the standard model is $0.34^{+0.62}_{-0.34}$, which corresponds to a measured cross section of 0.17$^{+0.32}_{-0.17}$ pb. New physics processes that could lead to an excess of events were considered. Limits on anomalous quartic gauge couplings are set, for example; $-1.2 < {f_{\mathrm{T},0}} / \Lambda^4 < $ 1.2 TeV$^{-4}$ at 95% confidence level. Limits are also set on the production of axion-like particles in association with a W boson: mass points between ${m_{{\mathrm{a}} }} = $ 200 and 480 GeV are excluded for the parameter value $1/{f_{{\mathrm{a}} }} = $ 5 TeV$^{-1}$. |
