Summary of alphaS running

The strong coupling αS(Q) (solid line) and its total uncertainty (band) as determined in JHEP 03 (2017) 156 analysis using a 2-loop solution to the RGE as a function of the momentum transfer Q=pT. The extractions of αS(Q) in nine separate ranges of Q are shown together with results from the H1, ZEUS, and D0 experiments at the HERA and Tevatron colliders. Recent other CMS measurements are displayed as well. ( R32 : Eur. Phys. J. C (2013) 73:2604 , ttbar cross section: Phys. Lett. B 738 (2014) 526, 3-jet mass : Eur. Phys. J.

SUSY summary plots

Summary of exclusion limits CMS SUSY searches assuming RPC and RPV

summary "bar" plots	caption
	Best exclusion limits for the masses of the mother particles, for RPC scenarios, for m(LSP) = 0 GeV (dark shades) and m(mother) - m(LSP) = 200 GeV (light shades); for each topology, for all results. In this plot, the lowest mass range is m(mother)=0, but results are available starting from a certain mass depending on the analyses and topologies. Branching ratios of one are assumed, values shown in plot are to be interpreted as upper bounds on the mass limits, see the analyses documentations for details. (Note: theory uncertainties not included.)
