Search for a scalar or vector particle decaying into Zγ in p over(p, ̄) collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV

Journal article

We present a search for a narrow scalar or vector resonance decaying into Zγ with a subsequent Z boson decay into a pair of electrons or muons. The data for this search were collected with the DØ detector at the Fermilab Tevatron p over(p, ̄) collider at a center of mass energy sqrt(s) = 1.96   TeV. Using 1.1 (1.0) fb-1 of data, we observe 49 (50) candidate events in the electron (muon) channel, in good agreement with the standard model prediction. From the combination of both channels, we de...
