The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 42 pb(-1). No significant deviation from the standard model is observed in the dimuon mass spectrum, allowing the following 95% C. L. limits to be set on the energy scale of contact interactions: Lambda > 4: 9 TeV (4.5 TeV) for constructive (destructive) interference in the left-left isoscalar compositeness model. These limits are the most stringent to date for μμqq contact interactions. %R 10.1103/PhysRevD.84.011101 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1104.4398 %U https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.84.011101 %P 011101-18pp
