CMS results and status
Abstract
The CMS experiment is a multi-purpose detector successfully operated at the LHC where predominantly pp collisions take place at various centre of mass energies up to sqrt(s)=8 TeV at present. Discussed are pp collision results until end of 2011, corresponding to centre of mass energies of up to sqrt(s)=7 TeV. The excellent performance of the accelerator and the experiment allows for dedicated physics measurements over a wide range of subjects, starting from particle identification, encompassing Standard Model measurements in multijet, boson, heavy flavour and top quark physics, building the basis for new physics searches interpreted within the framework of various models and theories.
