A search is presented for narrow resonances decaying to dijet final states in proton–proton collisions at
√
s=13 TeV using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 12.9 fb−1. The dijet mass spectrum
is well described by a smooth parameterization and no significant evidence for the production of new particles is observed. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are reported on the production cross section for narrow resonances with masses above 0.6 TeV. In the context of specific models, the limits exclude string resonances with masses below 7.4 TeV, scalar diquarks below 6.9 TeV, axigluons and colorons below 5.5 TeV, excited quarks below 5.4 TeV, color-octet scalars below 3.0 TeV, Wbosons below
2.7 TeV, Z bosons below 2.1 TeV and between 2.3 and 2.6 TeV, and RS gravitons below 1.9 TeV. These
extend previous limits in the dijet channel. Vector and axial-vector mediators in a simplified model of interactions between quarks and dark matter are excluded below 2.0 TeV. The first limits in the dijet channel on dark matter mediators are presented as functions of dark matter mass and are compared to the exclusions of dark matter in direct detection experiments.

We present model-independent results and, in addition, con-sider the following benchmark models of s-channel dijet reso-nances: string resonances [17,18], scalar diquarks [19], axiglu-ons [20,21], colorons [21,22], excited quarks (q∗) [23,24], color-octet scalars [25], new gauge bosons (W and Z) with SM-like orleptophobiccouplings[26],DMmediators[27,28],andRandall– Sundrum (RS) gravitons (G) [29]. In the color-octet scalar model the squaredanomalous couplingusedis k2

width andacross section that ishalf thevalue used inthe pre-vious CMSsearch[2].FollowingtherecommendationsofRef.[27] the DM mediator in a simplified model [28] is assumedto be a spin-1particleandtodecayonlytoqq andpairsofDMparticles, with unknown mass mDM, and with a universal quark coupling

2. Jetreconstructionandeventselection
TheCMSdetectoranditscoordinatesystem, includingthe az-imuthalangleφandthepseudorapidity η,aredescribedindetail inRef.[31].The centralfeature oftheCMSapparatusis a super-conductingsolenoid of6 m internal diameterproviding an axial fieldof3.8T.Withinthefield volumearelocatedthesiliconpixel andstriptracker(|η|<2.4) andthebarrelandendcap calorime-ters(|η|<3),whichconsistofaleadtungstatecrystal electromag-neticcalorimeter,anda brass andscintillator hadroncalorimeter. Anironandquartz-fiberhadron calorimeterislocatedinthe for-wardregion(3<|η|<5),outsidethefieldvolume.Fortriggering purposesandto facilitatejet reconstruction,the calorimetercells aregroupedintotowersprojectingradiallyoutwardfromthe cen-terofthedetector.
Aparticle-flow(PF)eventalgorithmreconstructsandidentifies each individual particle with an optimized combination of infor-mation from the various elements of the CMS detector [32,33]. Particles are classified as muons, electrons, photons, and either chargedorneutralhadrons.Jetsarereconstructedeitherusing par-ticleflow, givingPF-jets, orfromenergydepositsinthe calorime-ters,givingCalo-jets. PF-jets reconstructed offlineare used inthe high-masssearch,andCalo-jetsreconstructedbytheHLTareused inthelow-masssearch. Toreconstructbothtypesofjets, weuse the anti-kT algorithm [34,35] with a distance parameter of 0.4,
as implemented in the FastJet package [36]. For the high-mass search,atleastone reconstructedvertexisrequired.The primary vertexisdefinedasthevertexwiththehighestsumof p2
T ofthe
associatedtracks.ForPF-jets, chargedPFcandidates not originat-ingfromtheprimary vertexareremoved priorto thejetfinding. Forboth typesof jets, an event-by-event correction basedon jet area[37,38] isappliedto thejetenergyto removetheestimated contribution from additional collisions in the same or adjacent bunchcrossings(pileup).
Eventsareselectedusingatwo-tiertriggersystem.Events sat-isfyingloosejetrequirementsatthe firstlevel(L1)are examined bytheHLT.TheHLTuses HT,thescalarsumofthejet pT fromall
jetsintheeventwith|η|<3 thatsatisfy ajet pT requirement,to
selectevents.Forthehigh-mass search,PF-jets with pT>30GeV
are used to compute HT, andevents are accepted by the HLT if
theysatisfytherequirement HT>800GeV.Wethenselectevents
withmjj>1.06TeV for which the combined L1 trigger and HLT
arefound tobe fullyefficient.Forthelow-mass search,when an eventpasses the HLT, the Calo-jets reconstructed at the HLT are saved,alongwiththeeventenergydensityandmissingtransverse momentumreconstructed fromthe calorimeter.The shorter time foreventreconstructionofcalorimeterquantitiesandthereduced eventsize recordedfor theseevents allow areduced HT
thresh-old compared to thehigh-mass search. Forthe low-mass search, Calo-jets with pT>40GeV are used to compute HT, the
thresh-oldis HT>250GeV,andweselecteventswith mjj>0.45TeV for
whichthetriggerisfullyefficient.
Thejet momentaand energies are corrected usingcalibration constantsobtainedfromsimulation,testbeamresults,andpp col-lision data at √s=13TeV. The methods described in Ref. [38] are used and all in-situ calibrations are obtained from the cur-rentdata.AlljetsarerequiredtohavepT>30GeV and |η|<2.5.
The two jets with largest pT are defined as the leading jets. Jet
identification(ID)criteriaareapplied toremove spurious jets as-sociatedwithcalorimeternoise.ThejetIDforPF-jetsisdescribed
in Ref. [39]. The jet ID for Calo-jets requires that the jet be de-tectedbyboththeelectromagneticandhadroniccalorimeterswith the fraction of jet energy deposited within the electromagnetic calorimeterbetween 5and95% of the totaljet energy. An event isrejectedifeitherofthetwoleadingjetsfailsthejetIDcriteria.
Spatially closejetsare combinedinto “wide jets”andusedto determine the dijet mass, asin the previous CMS searches [4,6, 7,10]. The wide-jet algorithm,designed fordijetresonance event reconstruction, reduces the analysis sensitivity to gluon radia-tion from the final-state partons. The two leading jets are used as seeds and the four-vectors of all other jets, if within R =
(η)2+ (φ)2<1.1, are added to the nearest leading jet to
obtaintwowidejets,whichthenformthedijetsystem.The back-groundfrom t-channel dijeteventspeaksatlargevaluesof|ηjj|
and is suppressed by requiring the pseudorapidity separation of thetwo wide jetstosatisfy |ηjj|<1.3. Theabove requirements
maximize thesearch sensitivityforisotropicdecaysof dijet reso-nancesinthepresenceofQCDdijetbackground.Forthelow-mass search,afterwidejetreconstructionandeventselection,weusea correctionderivedfromasmallersample ofdijetdatatocalibrate the wide jetsreconstructed fromCalo-jets atHLT. With this cor-rection,basedona dijetbalancetag-and-probemethodsimilarto that discussed inRef. [38], thewide jetsfrom Calo-jetshave the sameresponseasthosereconstructedfromPF-jets.
3. Dijetmassspectrumandfit

The highest mass event has a dijetmassof7.7 TeV.Thedijetmassspectraforboththehigh- and low-masssearchesarefitwiththefollowingparameterization:

where x =mjj/√s and P0, P1, P2, and P3 are four free
param-eters. The functional form in Eq. (1) was also used in previous searches [2–13,16,40] to describe the data. In Fig. 1 we show the result of binned maximum likelihood fits, performed inde-pendently, whichyields the followingchi-squared pernumber of degreesoffreedom: χ2/NDF=33.3/42 for thehigh-mass search
and χ2/NDF=17.3/22 for the low-mass search. The dijet mass

We search for narrowresonances in the dijetmass spectrum. Fig. 1showsexamplesofdijetmassdistributionsforsignalevents generatedwiththe pythia 8.205[41]programwiththeCUETP8M1 tune [42,43] and including a Geant4-based [44] simulation of the CMS detector.

Thedominantsourcesofsystematicuncertaintyarethejet en-ergyscaleandresolution,integratedluminosity,andtheestimation ofbackground.Theuncertaintyinthejetenergyscaleinboththe low-massandthehigh-mass searchis2%andisdeterminedfrom √
s=13TeV data using the methods described inRef. [38]. This uncertainty ispropagated to thelimitsby shiftingthe dijetmass shape for signal by ±2%. The uncertainty in the jet energy res-olution translatesintoan uncertaintyof10% in theresolution of the dijetmass[38],andis propagated tothe limitsby observing the effect ofincreasing anddecreasing by 10% the reconstructed widthofthedijetmassshapeforsignal.Theuncertaintyinthe in-tegratedluminosityis6.2%,andispropagatedtothenormalization of thesignal. Changesinthe valuesofthe parametersdescribing thebackgroundintroduceachangeinthesignalstrength,whichis accountedforasasystematicuncertaintyasdiscussedinthenext paragraph.
The modified frequentist method[45,46] isutilized toset up-per limitson signal crosssections,following theprescription de-scribed inRefs. [47,48].We usea multi-bincountingexperiment likelihood,whichisaproductofPoissondistributions correspond-ing todifferentbins.Weevaluate thelikelihoodindependentlyat each value ofresonancepolemass from0.6to1.6 TeVin 50-GeV steps inthelow-masssearch, andfrom1.6to 7.5 TeVin100-GeV stepsinthehigh-masssearch.Thesystematicuncertaintiesare im-plemented asnuisance parameters in the likelihood model,with Gaussian constraintsfor the jet energy scale andresolution, and log-normal constraints fortheintegratedluminosity. The system-atic uncertaintyin the backgroundis automatically evaluated via profiling, effectively refitting for the optimal values of the back-groundparametersforeachvalueofresonancecrosssection.This procedure givesthe same limits asthe Bayesian procedure used previously for dijetresonance searches at CMS [4]. For both the Bayesian and modified frequentist statistical procedures we find that the backgroundsystematicuncertainty hasthe largesteffect on thelimit.The extentto whichthebackgrounduncertainty af-fects thelimit dependssignificantly on thesignal shapeand the resonance mass,with the largesteffect occurringfor the gg res-onances because they are wider, and the smallest effect for qq resonances.The effectdecreasesastheresonancemassincreases.

5. Limitsondarkmatter
Weuse ourlimitsto constrainsimplified models ofDM,with leptophobicvector andaxial-vector mediatorsthatcoupleonlyto quarks and DM particles [27,28]. Fig. 4 shows the excluded val-ues of mediator mass as a function of mDM for both types of
mediators. For mDM=1GeV,indistinguishable fromzero,the
ex-cludedrangeofmediatormass(MMed)isbetween0.6and2.0 TeV,
as also shown in Fig. 2 and listed in Table 1. An additional ex-cludedrangeof0.5<MMed<0.6TeV,notshown,comesfromthe
low-mass search at √s=8TeV [16]. In Fig. 4 the expected up-per value of excluded MMed increases with mDM to as high as
2.65 TeVbecausethebranchingfractiontoqq increaseswith mDM.
If mDM>MMed/2,themediatorcannotdecaytoDMparticles,and
thedijetcrosssectionfromthemediatormodelsbecomesidentical tothatintheleptophobicZmodelusedinFig. 3withacoupling
gq =gq=0.25. Therefore for thesevalues of mDM the limitson
the mediator mass inFig. 4 are identicalto the limitson the Z massat gq=0.25 inFig. 3.Similarly,if mDM=0,thelimitsonthe
mediatormassinFig. 4areidenticaltothelimitsontheZmass at gq =gq/
1+16/(3Nf)≈0.182 inFig. 3,where Nf isthe ef-fective number ofquark flavorscontributingto the width ofthe resonance.
