Description
Many new physics models beyond the Standard Model produce same-sign
dilepton pairs. Supersymmetry, universal etra dimentions, left-right
symmetry, Higgs triplets and Little Higgs are examples of such new models.
Same-sign dilepton pairs are clean signature in the collisions of two
protons because not many Standard Model process to produce such final
states exist. This makes it an ideal place to look for new physics. Using
20 fb-1 of 8 TeV data, we set limits on new physics cross sections,
especially on doubly-charged Higgs production.
