1. Introduction
Measurementsofelectroweakdibosonproductioncanbe trans-latedintomeasurementsofgaugebosonself-couplings,whichare amongthemostfundamentalaspectsofthestandardmodel(SM). At leading order (LO), only s-channel qq annihilation diagrams have a triple-boson vertex. In WW production, the WWγ and WWZ verticescontribute, whileinWZ productiononlytheWWZ vertexispresent.PhysicsbeyondtheSMcanmodifythecouplings atthesevertices,leadingtoobservabledifferencesinthecross sec-tionandthekinematicdistributions offinalstate particles [1].In thesearchforanomaloustriplegaugecouplings(aTGCs),weadopt theeffectiveLagrangianandLEPparametrizationinRef. [2], with-out form factors: λγ = λZ= λ, κZ= gZ1− κγ tan2θW. We focus in particular on the parameters λ, κγ , and gZ

cWWW/ 2, cW/ 2, and cB/ 2, where is the scale of new physics[3].

[6,7]. Theadvantages ofreconstructing WVpairs inthe νqq decay mode over purelyleptonic final states are the largerbranchingfractionsofW andZ bosonstoquarks,andinthe caseof two W bosons, the abilityto reconstructtheir transverse momenta(pT).Theseadvantages arepartially offsetbythelarger backgroundsintheνqq channel,arisingmainlyfromW+jets pro-duction.ThesensitivityofWW productionto theWWγ coupling andofbothWW andWZ productiontotheWWZ coupling, espe-ciallyathighboson pT, makestheseprocessesparticularlyuseful asaprobeofaTGCs.

3. Dataandsimulationsamples
The data were collected using single-lepton triggers with pT thresholdsof 24(27)GeV for muons(electrons). Theoverall trig-ger efficiency is about 94% (90%) for the muon (electron) data, withasmalldependence(afewpercent)on pTand pseudorapid-ity η. The total integrated luminosity collected andprocessed is 19.3(19.2)fb−1 formuon(electron)triggers.
Weuse the MadGraph5 1.3.30[9]eventgeneratorto produce both the W+jets and Drell–Yan samples, with up to four addi-tionalpartonsinthematrixelementcalculation.Singletop quark and top quark–antiquark pair (tt) samples are generated with powheg 1.0[10–14]. The dibosonsamples (WW, WZ) are gener-atedon-shellatnext-to-LO(NLO)with MadGraph5_amc@nlo ver-sion2.0.0[15] and MadSpin version3.2[16].ThedecaysW→τ ν
are includedforall processes.The τ lepton decaysare simulated with tauola [17]. The pythia 6.422 generator [18] provides the fragmentationandpartonshowersimulation,withtheparameters ofthe underlyingeventset tothe Z2*tune [19,20].The kT-MLM matching scheme is used to interface pythia6 with MadGraph5 atLO[21].Thesetofpartondistributionfunctions(PDFs)usedis CTEQ6L1[22]forLOgeneratorsandCT10[23]forNLOgenerators. A Geant4-basedsimulation[24]oftheCMSdetectorisusedinthe productionof all MonteCarlo (MC) samples.The simulationalso includesmultipleproton–protoncollisionswithinabunchcrossing (pileup).Simulated eventsare reconstructed and analyzed inthe samewayasmeasured collisionevents,subjectto additional cor-rectionsthataccountfordifferencesbetweendataandsimulation intriggerandselectionefficiencies,andinthevertexmultiplicity distribution.
4. Eventreconstruction
Allobservable objects, namelyleptons, jets, and EmissT , are re-constructed witha particle-flowtechnique [25,26]that combines information from several subdetectors. Muons are reconstructed within|η|<2.4 withtheinnertrackerandthemuonsystem[27]. Electrons are reconstructed within |η|<2.5 from tracks in the trackerpointingtoenergyclustersintheECAL,andidentified us-ingamultivariatediscriminator[28].Theselectionsappliedtothis discriminator are tuned to match the η-binned efficiencies used for Ref. [4]. Muons (electrons) are required to have pT greater than 25(30) GeV. The lepton candidates are required to be con-sistent with originatingfrom the event’s primary vertex, and to beisolatedfromotheractivityintheevent.The isolation require-ments formuons(electrons)are basedon theparticle-flow tech-niquewithan isolation coneof R =0.4(0.3),andare designed to reduce theeffects ofpileup andneutralparticles. Events with additionallooselyidentifiedleptonsarevetoedtoreducethe back-groundsfromfullyleptonicdecays,suchasthoseoriginatingfrom theDrell–Yan process anddibosonproduction. Decaysof the tau leptontoelectronsormuonsthatpassthesecriteriaareincluded aspotentialsignalevents.

However, since the LO W+jets predictionfalls below the data, we choose to extract the normalizations of the largestbackgroundcomponentsfirstfromanunbinned maximum-likelihoodfitto thedatadistributionofthe mergedjetmass, mJ. The diboson mJ shapeinthefitregionisunaffectedbytheaTGC signalatthelevelofsensitivityofthisanalysis.
5.1. Normalization extractions from the mJfit
Forthispartoftheanalysisweemployatwo-stageprocedure: firstwefitthedistributioninsimulationforeachprocess individ-ually.TheMCtemplatesusedinthe7 TeV analysisarereplacedby analytical functions, whichprovide additionalflexibility to model the data accurately. Second, we utilize the results from the first setoffitstoperformanunbinnedmaximum-likelihoodfittodata thatincludesallcomponents.Duetothedifferencesinbackground compositions andshapes, the fitto data is performedseparately for the muon andelectron channels. All fits are performed over the mass range40<mJ<140 GeV. Withineach fit to data,the normalizationforeachbackgroundprocessiseitherfreetofloator allowed tovaryaroundacentralvaluesubjecttoaGaussian con-straint.Somecomponentshavebeencombinedbecauseof similar-ityinshape,orbecausetheW andZ bosonsarenotwell-resolved in mJ.Finally,theyieldsusedtonormalizebackground pTJ compo-nentsareextractedfromthesignalregionof70<mJ<100 GeV.
Toassistinthebackgrounddetermination,wedefinea control sample intended to isolatepure top quark eventsforcomparison with simulation[36].The sample isconstructed by inverting the selectiononthenumberofb-taggedAK5jetsoutsidetheCA8jet, thus requiring that there be at least one AK5 b-taggedjet. This

Thedibosonprobabilitydensityfunction(pdf)in mJ is param-etrizedbya sumoftwoGaussian functionscorresponding tothe W and Z resonances. The position and width of the Z Gaussian are fixed withrespect to those ofthe W Gaussian, which is ini-tially taken from simulation. The relative fractions of WW (84% of the total) and WZ (16%) are also taken from simulation. The broad background from jets misassigned to Vhad is modeled by anerror functiontimesan exponential function.The W Gaussian parametersaresubsequentlycorrectedwithMC-to-datascale fac-torsdeterminedfromthetop controlsample, inordertoaccount formismodelingofthemerged-jetmassinsimulation.Alldiboson shapeparametersarethenfixedduring thefitstothedata,while thenormalizationsarefreeparameterstobemeasured.

Theindividual processyields, asdetermined bythefit,are re-portedin Table 1.The acceptancetimes efficiency(Aε) is deter-mined fromthe diboson MC.The electron channel has asmaller
Aε because ofits higherkinematic threshold.The top quark re-sultsreflect theinabilityofthe fitto furtherconstrain this back-ground. The W+jets yields are about 20% higher than the prefit value of 1.3times the LO prediction, which exhibits our limited knowledge of this boostedregime. For the diboson process, 1.35 (2.23) times the expected event count is observed in the muon (electron) channel. This excess isstatistically consistent withthe SM NLO prediction [15]. Overall, the approach produces a high quality model of the data (Fig. 1 (left)), with pull distributions consistent withzero(Fig. 1(right)), thatallows usto extract the dibosoncontributiontotheVhadresonance(Fig. 1(center)). 5.2. Fit validation
We validate the fit procedure by performing pseudo-exper-iments.Foreachexperiment,wegeneratethe mJ pseudo-datafor the SM processes using the fitted pdf, taking into account the correlations between the yields, and then perform a fit to each pseudo-data mJ distribution asifitwere the realdata.Likewise, weensurethat theparametrizationusedissufficientlygeneralby

The results indicate that biases in all background yields and yield uncertainties are small.
5.3. Signal modeling
The dependence of the pTJ distribution on specific aTGCs is modeled by reweighting the simulations of SM WW and WZ by theratioofsquaredmatrixelementswithandwithoutthe anoma-louscoupling,i.e.,|M|2/|M|SM2 ,where|M|2isthesquaredmatrix element in the presence of anomalous couplings and |M|2SM is thesquaredmatrixelementintheSM,calculatedwith mcfm ver-sion 6.0[38].Theseratiosare calculated,parametrizedwith poly-nomials, and the polynomials encapsulated into a unified signal modelintwo-dimensional(2D)spaceforthreepairwise combina-tionsoftheeffectiveLagrangianparametersbeingstudied.
5.4. Preparing pTJdistributions
Distributionsof pTJ intheformofhistograms binnedover the range200–800 GeV (Fig. 2)are usedtocomputelimits. All selec-tions havebeenapplied,includingthe signalwindow, 70<mJ< 100 GeV. The W+jets and top quark background normalizations are fixedaccordingto theresultsfromthe mJ fits.The SM dibo-son components,however,arenormalizedtotheNLOpredictions, sincea)wearesearchingforenhancementstothediboson produc-tion relative to those predictions, andb) given the excess ofSM diboson events obtained fromthe fits in both channels, normal-izingto theorypredictions yieldssubstantially moreconservative, lesssensitive expectedlimits. We treatthe twolepton categories asseparatechannelsinthelimitsettingprocess.
Since the W+jets shape is only calculated to LO, and we are exploring a newregion ofphase space, we adjust theshape and normalizationfrom MCby comparing itto a distributionderived using an alternative method. This method involves extrapolating theW+jets pTJ distributionfroma mJ datasidebandtothesignal region bymeans ofatransfer function.The transferfunctionis a ratio ofcurvesfittedto theW+jets pTJ distributions inthesignal andsidebandregionsofW+jetssimulation[36,39].Thecomparison showsthattheratiooftheW+jetsbackgroundsderivedusingthe twomethodsisstatisticallyconsistentwithunity.
6. Systematicuncertainties
Themainsourceofsystematicuncertaintyisthenormalization uncertaintyintheW+jetsbackgroundestimate.Fromthe alterna-tivemethoddescribedinSec.5.4,weextracta20%uncertaintyin thetotal backgroundnormalizationby takingtheprecision ofthe ratiooftheW+jetsbackgrounddistributionderived fromthetwo methods and summing over the high pT region (400–800 GeV), wherethesignalisexpected.
The theoretical uncertainties in the signal normalization are associated with the renormalizationand factorizationscales, and with the choice of PDF, for pW
T >1 TeV. For PDF uncertainties we compare amc@nlo samples employing 41 alternative sets of CTEQ6MPDFsfollowingtheprescriptioninRef.[22].Factorization andrenormalizationscaleuncertainties areestimatedby simulta-neouslyvaryingthemupordownbyafactorof2.Both scaleand PDFuncertaintiesareestimatedtobeapproximately18–26%.
Theuncertaintyinthesignalshapecomingfromtheeffectsof reconstruction is estimated by comparing the aTGC/SM ratios at the generator levelandthe aTGC/SM ratios atthe reconstruction level after all major selectionsare applied forboth samples.The ratioisconsistentwithunity,andthereforeonlythestatistical er-rorontheratioispropagatedasanuncertaintyinthemodelingof differentaTGCsignalgridpoints.
The uncertainty in the luminosity measurement is 2.6% [40]. Additional sources of uncertainty from limited MC sample size, jet energyscaleandresolution, Emiss
T resolution,triggerefficiency, lepton reconstruction andselection efficiency, additionaljet veto, pileup,andb-tagefficiencyarenegligibleincomparisontothe pri-marysources.Theseuncertaintiesaretreatedasnuisance parame-tersinthemodelandprofiledaccordingtoRef.
