 Measurements of Higgs boson production and properties in the WW decay channel with both W's decaying into electrons or muons plus neutrino using the CMS detector / Govoni, Pietro (INFN, Milan Bicocca ; Milan Bicocca U.) /CMS Collaboration A search for the Higgs boson has been carried out in the Higgs to WW decay mode with the CMS detector at the LHC collider, where each W decays into an electron or photon and a neutrino. The analysis is based on pp collision data collected at centre-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to integrated luminosities of 5/fb and 20/fb, respectively.

 Measurements of the hadronic activity and the electroweak production in events with a Z boson and two jets in proton-proton collisions with the CMS experiment / Azzurri, Paolo (INFN, Pisa) /CMS Collaboration The observation of the electroweak production of a Z boson with two jets in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8$~TeV with the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC is presented, based on a data sample with an integrated luminosity of 19.7~fb$^{-1}$. The cross section measurement, combining the muon and electron channels, is in agreement with the theoretical expectations. Radiation patterns of selected Z plus two jets events, and the hadronic activity in the rapidity interval between the jets are also measured. These results are of substantial importance in the more general study of vector boson fusion processes, of relevance for Higgs boson searches and for measurements of electroweak gauge couplings and vector boson scattering..

 Search for anomalous single top quark production in association with a photon in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV. / Goldouzian, Reza (IPM, Tehran) /CMS Collaboration A search for single top quark production through flavor-changing neutral currents at an anomalous $tq\gamma$ vertex is performed in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. The analysis is based on a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.1 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the CMS detector. [...] CMS-CR-2014-330.- Geneva : CERN, 2014 - 4 p.

 Model uncertainties in top-quark physics / Seidel, Markus (Hamburg U.) /ATLAS and CMS Collaborations The ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are studying the top quark in pp collisions at 7 and 8 TeV. Due to the large integrated luminosity, precision measurements of production cross-sections and properties are often limited by systematic uncertainties.

 Measurements of single top quark cross sections in pp collisions at 8 TeV with the CMS detector / Merola, Mario (INFN, Naples) /CMS Collaboration Measurements are presented of the single top quark production in proton-proton collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, using data collected with the CMS experiment during 2012. The first analysis, in the t-channel single top production mode, considers decay channels where the W comes from the top decays into electron-neutrino or muon-neutrino.

 Design options for the upgrade of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter / Paramatti, Riccardo (INFN, Rome) /CMS Collaboration The CMS scintillating lead-tungstate calorimeter was designed to operate for at least ten years at the LHC, assuming an instantaneous luminosity of $10^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$. The measurements obtained with data collected in LHC Run1 (2010-2012) show that the detector has performed according to design specifications and will survive with excellent performance through the lifetime of the LHC.
