Invariant mass and angular distributions are compared to background predictions and no significant deviation is observed. For resonance searches, a new method for fitting the background component of the invariant mass distribution is employed. The dataset is then used to set upper limits at a 95{\%} confidence level on a range of new physics scenarios. Excited quarks with masses below 6.0 TeV are excluded, and limits are set on quantum black holes, heavy W{\textquoteright} bosons, W* bosons, and a range of masses and couplings in a Z{\textquoteright} dark matter mediator model. Model-independent limits on signals with a Gaussian shape are also set, using a new approach allowing factorization of physics and detector effects. From the angular distributions, a scale of new physics in contact interaction models is excluded for scenarios with either constructive or destructive interference. These results represent a substantial improvement over those obtained previously with lower integrated luminosity.", optnote="WOS:000411988800002", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3325), last updated on Mon, 30 Oct 2017 08:37:52 +0000", issn="2470-0010", doi="10.1103/PhysRevD.96.052004", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1703.09127", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.96.052004", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1703.09127", language="English" }
