Description

The inclusive WZ production cross section is measured in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13.6 TeV, using 34.7 fb$^{−1}$ of data recorded in 2022 with the CMS detector at the LHC. This analysis focuses on multileptonic final states and uses a simultaneous likelihood fit to the number of events in four different lepton categories. The WZ process is sensitive to triple gauge couplings that could modify the WZ production cross section and provide evidence for beyond-the-Standard Model physics.
