abstract
New sets of parameters ("tunes") for the underlying-event (UE) modeling of the PYTHIA8, PYTHIA6 and HERWIG++ Monte Carlo event generators are constructed using different parton distribution functions. Combined fits to CMS UE proton-proton (pp) data at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV and to UE proton-antiproton (p p-bar) data from the CDF experiment at lower sqrt(s), are used to study the UE models and constrain their parameters, providing thereby improved predictions for proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV. In addition, it is investigated whether the values of the parameters obtained from fits to UE observables are consistent with the values determined from fitting observables sensitive to double-parton scattering processes. Finally, comparisons of the UE tunes to "minimum bias" (MB) events, multijet, and Drell-Yan (q q-bar to Z / gamma* to lepton-antilepton + jets) observables at 7 and 8 TeV are presented, as well as predictions for MB and UE observables at 13 TeV.

Search for narrow dijet resonances in the 0.6-1.8 TeV mass range with data scouting in 117 fb^{-1} of 13 TeV data finds no significant signal and sets model-independent upper limits on various resonance types and dark matter mediator couplings.
Global fit of an x- and μ-dependent Gaussian model for transverse double parton distributions to LHC and Tevatron data extracts parameters for calculating effective cross sections in other observables.
Updated constraints from the full Run 2 dataset show no evidence for anomalous Higgs couplings in gluon fusion, vector boson fusion, and associated production modes decaying to two photons.
A phenomenological fit to double parton scattering data assumes distinct transverse correlations for valence and sea partons and finds sea pairs more correlated.
New CMS PYTHIA 8 tunes using NLO or NNLO PDFs describe minimum-bias, underlying-event, and jet data in top-quark pair events at a level comparable to LO-based tunes.
CMS reports fiducial and differential ttγ cross sections plus ttγ/tt ratios at 13 TeV that agree with Standard Model expectations within uncertainties.
