Content
In many models of physics beyond the Standard Model the coupling of new
physics to third generation quarks is enhanced and signatures are
expected that mimic top production. We present a review of non-MSSM
based searches for new physics beyond the standard model in final states
containing top quarks and/or bottom quarks. This includes includes
searches for heavy gauge bosons, excited quarks, chirall and vector-like
top quark partners. The searches span a range of final states, from
multi-leptonic to entirely hadronic, and many results use novel analysis
techniques to reconstruct the highly boosted final states that are
created in these topologies. The searches are performed on data
collected with the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at the LHC
at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 and 8 TeV.
