Description
This seminar will cover ht measurement of the ZZ production cross section at 7 and 8 TeV using proton-proton collisions acquired by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The decay channel ZZ → 2l2ν is selected from data corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 10 fb−1. We measure a cross section in good agreement with the SM NLO predictions. The selected data is analyzed to seek for anomalous triple gauge couplings (aTGC) envolving the ZZ final state.
