Search for excited leptons in ℓℓγ final states in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV

A search is presented for excited electrons and muons in ``γ final states at the LHC. The search is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector in 2016. This is the...
