Search for heavy diboson resonances decaying to W → ℓ ν and h → τ τ with CMS — •Thomas Esch, Thomas Hebbeker, Kerstin Hoepfner, and Swagata Mukherjee — III. Physikalisches Institut A, RWTH Aachen, Germany

Heavy resonances that decay to two bosons could be an interesting signature for new physics. With increasing resonance masses, the two bosons get higher momenta and their decay products get closer to each other.

In this talk, the analysis for a search for heavy charged Wh resonances with the full CMS dataset of 2016 for the case where the W boson decays leptonically and the h boson decays to τ leptons will be presented. It will concentrate on semileptonic and fully hadronic h → τ τ decays and the reconstruction techniques for nearby τ decay products.
