Search for fractionally charged particles in pp collisions at √s=7  TeV

A search is presented for free heavy long-lived fractionally charged particles produced in pp collisions at √s=7  TeV. The data sample was recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0  fb[superscript -1]. Candidate fractionally charged particles are iden...
