Search for Narrow Resonances in the b -Tagged Dijet Mass Spectrum in Proton-Proton Collisions at √s = 8  TeV

A search for narrow resonances decaying to bottom quark-antiquark pairs is presented, using a data sample of proton-proton collisions at √s=8  TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7  fb[superscript −1]. The search is extended to masses lower than those reached in typical searches for...
