Search for a heavy bottom-like quark in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

A search for pair-produced bottom-like quarks in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV is conducted with the CMS experiment at the LHC. The decay b'→tW is considered in this search. The b'[bar over b'] →tW[superscript -][bar over t]W[superscript +] process can be identified by the distinctive s...
