Search for a W′ boson decaying to a bottom quark and a top quark in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

Results are presented from a search for a W′ boson using a dataset corresponding to 5.0 fb[superscript −1] of integrated luminosity collected during 2011 by the CMS experiment at the LHC in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV. The W′ boson is modeled as a heavy W boson, but different scenarios for the couplin...
