Abstract

A search for a W' boson is presented using a dataset corresponding to 5.0 fb−1 of integrated luminosity collected during 2011 by the CMS experiment at the LHC in pp collisions at √s = 7TeV. The W' to tb decay mode is analyzed leading to a final state signature with a single electron or muon, missing transverse energy, and jets, at least one of which is identified as a b-jet. Different scenarios involving an arbitrary mixture of both left-handed and right-handed chiral projections of the fermions are considered. A W' boson that couples to the right-handed (left-handed) chiral projections of the fermions with the same coupling constants as the Standard Model W boson is excluded for masses below 1.85 (1.51)TeV at the 95% confidence level.
