Measurement of W γ production cross section inproton-proton collisions at √ s =
13 TeV and constraints oneffective field theory coefficients
The CMS Collaboration * Abstract
A fiducial cross section for W γ production in proton-proton collisions is measured ata center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 137 fb − of data collected using the CMS detectorat the LHC. The W → e ν and µν decay modes are used in a maximum-likelihood fitto the lepton-photon invariant mass distribution to extract the combined cross sec-tion. The measured cross section is compared with theoretical expectations at next-to-leading order in quantum chromodynamics. In addition, 95% confidence level in-tervals are reported for anomalous triple-gauge couplings within the framework ofeffective field theory.

[ h e p - e x ] F e b The associated production of a W boson and a photon in proton-proton (pp) collisions cor-responds to a fundamental process that has bearing on the basic ingredients of the standardmodel (SM). A precise measurement of the pp → W γ cross section probes the WW γ triple-gauge coupling (TGC) and higher-order corrections to it. The structure and strength of theWW γ TGC are closely related to the SU(2) × U(1) gauge symmetry of the SM and the mech-anism for its breaking, which can be altered through the presence of new physics with al-ternative symmetries or symmetry-breaking mechanisms, such as composite W models [1].Physics at high energy scale can be described in a generic way in the framework of effectivefield theory (EFT), and the pp → W γ production cross section has direct implications for thelowest-dimension operators in the EFT expansion, including O WWW = Tr [ W µν W νρ W µρ ] , whichdirectly affects the WW γ TGC [2]. Previous measurements of W γ production from the LHCuse the data collected in 2011 at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV [3, 4]. Here we report thefirst measurement of the pp → W γ cross section at 13 TeV based on data collected by the CMSexperiment in 2016–2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb − .At leading order in quantum chromodynamics (QCD), (cid:96) + ν (cid:96) γ and (cid:96) − ν (cid:96) γ (where (cid:96) = e/ µ ) pro-duction in pp collisions with an s -channel W boson can proceed through initial-state radiation(ISR) from one of the incoming quarks, final-state radiation (FSR) from the outgoing chargedlepton, or the WW γ TGC vertex shown in Fig. 1. At higher orders in QCD, additional quarkscan appear in the final state, and the photon can arise by FSR from an outgoing quark or lepton. d u W + W + ν e e γ Figure 1: Representative Feynman diagram for pp → (cid:96) + ν (cid:96) γ production with a TGC vertex.The central feature of the CMS apparatus is a superconducting solenoid of 6 m internal di-ameter, providing a magnetic field of 3.8 T. A silicon pixel and strip tracker, a lead tungstatecrystal electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL), and a brass and scintillator hadron calorimeter,each composed of a barrel and two end sections, are located within the magnetic field of thesolenoid. Forward calorimeters extend the pseudorapidity ( η ) coverage provided by the bar-rel and end detectors. Muons are measured using in gas-ionization chambers, including drifttubes, cathode strip chambers, and resistive plate chambers, embedded in the steel flux-returnyoke outside the solenoid. A more detailed description of the CMS detector, as well as thedefinition of the coordinate system and the relevant kinematic variables, is reported in Ref. [5].Electrons and photons are measured in the range | η | < | η | < ments in the gas-ionization chambers and matched tracks in the silicon tracker [8].The missing transverse momentum vector (cid:126) p missT is computed as the negative vector p T sum ofall measured particles in an event, reconstructed with the particle flow algorithm [9], and itsmagnitude is denoted by p missT [10]. The (cid:126) p missT of an event is intended to represent the neutrinosassociated with a single pp interaction within a bunch crossing. The contribution to (cid:126) p missT due toparticles from additional pp interactions within the same bunch crossing (pileup) is mitigatedthrough the pileup-per-particle identification algorithm [11, 12]. The (cid:126) p missT is also modified toinclude corrections to the energy scale and resolution of the reconstructed jets in the event.The W γ production cross section has been calculated with next-to-leading-order (NLO) QCDcorrections at fixed order matched to parton shower [13, 14], with NLO electroweak correctionsat fixed order [15], and with next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections at fixedorder [16–18]. For an inclusive cross section, the NLO QCD corrections are large and positive,more than 100% compared to the LO prediction, whereas the NLO electroweak corrections arenegligible compared to experimental precision. The NNLO QCD corrections are positive and20–30% relative to the NLO QCD prediction.The signal processes pp → (cid:96) + ν (cid:96) γ and pp → (cid:96) − ν (cid:96) γ are simulated at NLO in QCD using M AD -G RAPH MC @ NLO version 5.2.6 [13] with up to one additional jet in the matrix element calcu-lation, merged with jets from the parton showering using the FxFx merging scheme [19]. Thesetwo processes are also simulated at NLO in QCD with
POWHEG version 2.0 [14, 20–22] using theNLO competition option selected for handling the radiation of a photon or a jet from Born-levelW boson production with a jet. For both M AD G RAPH MC @ NLO and
POWHEG , the partonshowering and hadronization are performed using

PYTHIA → τ ν τ decays,which are considered part of the signal when a τ decays with an emission of an electron or amuon. No EW or NNLO QCD corrections are applied.We select W + γ → (cid:96) + ν (cid:96) γ and W − γ → (cid:96) − ν (cid:96) γ events from the set of events that pass a level-one [29] and a high-level [30] trigger that require a single muon or electron that is isolatedfrom other detector activity and is therefore likely to be promptly produced as opposed toproduced during the hadronization of a jet. The p T threshold of the high-level trigger leptonvaries between 24 and 32 GeV, depending on the year of data taking and the lepton flavor.We require the presence of a single high-quality [31] reconstructed photon, p missT exceeding40 GeV, and that the isolated electron or muon satisfies additional quality criteria [8, 32]. Offlinekinematical requirements on the selected objects, based on the detector acceptance and thetrigger thresholds, are photon p T >
25 GeV, photon | η | < | η | < p T >
30 (26) or >
35 (30) GeV, depending on the year of data taking. To reducethe background from Z γ events, we reject events that contain an additional muon or electronwith p T >
20 GeV that satisfies minimal quality criteria. Finally, ∆ R = (cid:112) ( ∆ η ) + ( ∆ φ ) , where ∆ φ and ∆ η are the spatial separations in azimuthal angle φ (in radians) and η between thelepton and photon, is required to exceed 0.5.The signal is defined as the W γ process originating from a fiducial region defined with isolatedprompt photons and isolated prompt dressed (as defined below) leptons. A lepton or photonis considered isolated if the p T sum of all stable particles within ∆ R = p T of the lepton or photon, is less than 0.5. A lepton is considered prompt if it originates from the hard process; a photon is considered prompt if it originates from the hard process or an FSR orISR process involving a particle that originates from the hard process. A lepton is dressed byadding to its four-momentum the four-momenta of all photons within ∆ R = | η | < p T >

8, in a manner similar to that for the signal samples. The back-ground due to photon conversions in the detector material that lead to reconstructed electronsis estimated with a simulated sample of γγ events made with Sherpa version 2.2.5[33]. Thebackground due to events containing nonprompt leptons and photons, including those frominstrumental mismeasurements and genuine leptons/photons within jets, is estimated fromdata. The ratio of well-isolated, high-quality leptons to less-well-isolated, lower-quality lep-tons is measured in a dijet control region in data as a function of the lepton | η | and p T , andcorrected for prompt leptons and prompt photon conversions based on simulated samples. Asimilar procedure is applied for photons based on a W+jets control region. In the nonpromptphoton case, a fit to the width of the photon ECAL shower is used to determine the nonpromptphoton fraction in the well-isolated, high-quality category, as described in Ref. [34]. The twoprocedures are combined in a way that avoids double counting to estimate the contributionfrom events containing both a nonprompt lepton and a nonprompt photon. The backgroundcontribution from events that contain a prompt lepton from the primary interaction and aprompt photon from a pileup interaction, mainly W+jets primary interaction events with γ +jetspileup interaction events, is estimated using simulated samples. Finally, the background fromelectron-induced photons, occurring when an electron track is misreconstructed in the trackeror not properly matched to the corresponding ECAL cluster, is estimated using a fit to the m (cid:96) γ distribution in data, which is sharply peaked because of the Z resonance, with a templateconstructed from simulation.The observed distributions of m (cid:96) γ are compared with the expected distributions based on theM AD G RAPH MC @ NLO simulation in Fig. 2. The experimental data agrees with the predic-tion within uncertainties. The expected and observed numbers of events are listed in Table 1.The signal strength is extracted from a binned maximum likelihood fit to the m (cid:96) γ distribution,where the likelihood function is the product of a Poisson probability density functions for eachbin. A simultaneous fit of the electron and muon channels is used for our main results; in addi-tion, muon-channel-only and electron-channel-only fits are performed as a consistency check.In order to efficiently maximize the likelihood function with the large number of parametersthat we consider, we use a T ENSOR F LOW -based minimizer [35, 36]. The fit is performed in therange 10 to 250 GeV with 2 GeV bins. In the electron-channel-only fit and the simultaneous fit,the normalization of the electron-induced photon template is a free parameter in addition tothe W γ normalization, whereas in the muon-channel-only fit, the normalization of the electron-induced photon template is constrained by a 100% log-normal uncertainty around its nominalvalue and the W γ signal normalization is the only free parameter.A variety of sources of systematic uncertainty are considered as nuisance parameters in the fitsubject to log-normal constraints. Experimental sources of systematic uncertainty include: thejet energy scale and resolution (which affect the (cid:126) p missT ), the lepton and photon identification effi-ciency, the integrated luminosity measurement, the statistical power of our simulated samplesand data control regions, and the nonprompt photon and nonprompt lepton background es-timation methods. Theoretical sources of systematic uncertainty include: the renormalization
