Search for neutral long-lived particles that decay to dileptons with the CMS detector

This thesis presents a search for exotic, neutral, long-lived particles, which decay to final states that include a pair of electrons or a pair of muons. The search is performed with proton-proton collision data collected by the CMS detector at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy √s = 8 TeV. The expe...
