Search for high-mass Zγ resonances in proton–proton collisions at s=8 and 13 TeV using jet substructure techniques

A search for massive resonances decaying to a Z boson and a photon is performed in events with a hadronically decaying Z boson candidate, separately in light-quark and b quark decay modes, identified using jet substructure and advanced b tagging techniques. Results are based on samples of proton–...
