First measurements of vector boson scattering in W±W± and WZ production in all-leptonic final states at √s = 13.6 TeV
Abstract
The production cross sections of W±W± and WZ boson pairs in association with two jets in proton-proton collisions are measured at √s = 13.6 TeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 171 fb−1, collected with the CMS detector during 2022−2024. The measurements are performed in the leptonic decay modes: W±Z → ℓ±νℓ′±ℓ′∓ and W±W± → ℓ±νℓ′±ν, where ℓ, ℓ' = e or μ. The electroweak productions of W±W± and WZ bosons are each observed with a significance greater than five standard deviations from the background-only hypothesis. Differential fiducial cross sections as functions of several observables are also measured.
