Search for excited quarks in the γ + jet final state in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV

A search for excited quarks decaying into the γ+jet final state is presented. The analysis is based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb[superscript −1] collected by the CMS experiment in proton–proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV at the LHC. Events with photons and jets with hig...
