Measurements of Higgs boson properties in the H → γγ decay channel are reported. The analysis is based on data collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 TeV during the 2016 LHC running period, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb-1. Allowing the Higgs mass to float, the measurement yields a signal

The mass of the top quark is measured using a sample of {{ {t}}\overline{{ {t}}}} events collected by the CMS detector using proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 {TeV} at the CERN LHC. Events are selected with one isolated muon or electron and at least four jets from data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 {fb}^{-1}. For each event

The production of a { {Z}} boson, decaying to two charged leptons, in association with jets in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 {TeV} is measured. Data recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC are used that correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.19 {fb}^ {-1}. The cross section is measured as a function of the jet

A search for tau neutrino induced showers with the MAGIC telescopes is presented. The MAGIC telescopes located at an altitude of 2200 m a.s.l. in the Canary Island of La Palma, can point towards the horizon or a few degrees below across an azimuthal range of about 80°. This provides a possibility to search for air showers induced by tau leptons

We present the discovery and confirmation of two new transiting giant planets from the Kepler extended mission K2. K2-260 b is a hot Jupiter transiting a V = 12.7 F6V star in K2 Field 13, with a mass and radius of M⋆ = 1.39_{-0.06}^{+0.05} M_{⊙} and R⋆ = 1.69 ± 0.03 R_{⊙}. The planet has an orbital period of P = 2.627 d, and a mass and radius of M

The stellar initial mass function (IMF) is commonly assumed to be an invariant probability density distribution function of initial stellar masses. These initial stellar masses are generally represented by the canonical IMF, which is defined as the result of one star formation event in an embedded cluster. As a consequence, the galaxy-wide IMF
