Resonances decaying into a pair of particles are an obvious place to look for phenomena beyond the Standard Model. This talk summarizes recent results on searches for resonances in pairs of jets, lepton
pairs, leptons and missing transverse energy and pairs of photons or W/Z bosons. Various models are considered such the Z' and W', the Randall-Sundrum gravitons as well as the ADD large extra...

The latest searches for new physics in jet final states are presented using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. Searches for diet resonances are predicted by various models such as string resonance, excited quarks, and heavy vector bosons. The dijet data are also used to search for massive resonances decaying into vector bosons and high-mass b-jet pairs. Analyses of multijet...

We present the latest results on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation leptoquark searches at CMS, using data collected at sqrt(s)=7 TeV and 8 TeV. We examine a variety of final states including leptons, jets, and missing transverse energy.

We present searches for massive top and bottom quark partners at CMS using data collected at sqrt(s)=7 and 8 TeV. Such partners can be seen in 4th generation models, or can be found in models predicting vector-like quarks to solve the Hierarchy problem and stabilize the Higgs mass. The searches span a range of final states, from multileptonic to entirely hadronic, and limits are set on mass...

Various extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence
of new types of quarks. We report on several search channels such as
vector-like quarks decaying to a Higgs boson and a top quark or to
a W boson and a b quark. The talk presents results from
searches for new resonances decaying to a top-antitop pair, including
the use of boosted top quark reconstruction techniques.
These...

In this talk, I will discuss the spectacular collider signatures of macroscopically long-lived, neutral particles that decay to Higgs boson and missing energy. I show that such long-lived particles arise naturally in a very minimal extension of the Standard Model with only two new fermions with electroweak interactions. The lifetime of the longlived neutral fermion can range from less than 0.1...

The deviation of the measured value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment from the standard model prediction can be completely explained by mixing of the muon with extra vectorlike leptons, L and E, near the electroweak scale. This mixing simultaneously contributes to the muon mass. We show that the correlation between contributions to the muon mass and muon g-2 is controlled by the mass of...

In this talk the pair production of color triplet spin-3/2 quarks and their subsequent decays at the LHC will be discussed. This particle, if produced, will most likely decay into top quark and gluon, bottom quark and gluon, or a light quark jet and gluon, depending on the quantum number of the spin-3/2 particle. This would lead to signals with ttjj, bbjj, or 4j in the final states. A detailed...
