Exotic top partners
Some BSM theories predict the existence of: heavy top quark partner heavy bottom
• Model suggested by Contino and Servant : arXiv:0801.1679 (2008) “Discovering the top partners at the LHC using same-sign dilepton final states”Perform a sensitivity study using CMS fast simulation samples:

• Look for same-sign di-lepton states • reduces the ttbar background
• Look for a resonant tW invariant mass peak (T5/3)

• pT > 50 GeV for the leading lepton• pT > 25 GeV for the second leading lepton.• Missing transverse energy > 20 GeV.

CMS Discovery Potential
• Background is under control for such a signal
• Triggers: Single lepton, di-lepton (including e+mu and same-sign triggers); Lepton + jets
• Estimate the following for T5/3 + B: 5 observation: ~ 240 pb-1
with sys errors: 30% for signal and 50% for bkgwith no sys errors: ~ 230 pb-1# of Signal events 25.8; bkg events: 0.96

Reconstructing the heavy T• Reconstructing the first W (from top decay) (eff: 0.84)
– Take the two jets with invariant mass consistent within 20 GeV of W boson.
– If a btagged jet is found close to the second leading lepton, the jet is removed from consideration.
– Require Rjet< 1.5 and the W(pT) > 50 GeV.
• Reconstructing the second W (from heavy exotic top)– Remove jets associated with first W.– Take the two jets with invariant mass consistent within 25 GeV of W
boson.– Require Rjet< 1.5 and the W(pT) > 30 GeV.W from top decay W from heavy top

Reconstructing the heavy T• Reconstructing the heavy Top (from top decay)
– Discard the four jets that were assigned to the two W bosons – Combine the btagged jet with one of the two W bosons to get the top
quark• Take the one that is closest to top quark mass (within 40 GeV)
– The top quark candidate is combined with the other W boson to yield the heavy top partner - T(-5/3)
