Description
Results are presented from a search for the direct electroweak
production of charginos and neutralinos in signatures with either two or
more leptons (electrons or muons) of the same electric charge, or with
three or more leptons, which can include up to two hadronically decaying
tau leptons. The results are based on a sample of proton-proton
collision data collected at √{s}=13 TeV, recorded with the CMS
detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9
fb-1. The observed event yields are consistent with the
expectations based on the standard model. The results are interpreted in
simplified models of supersymmetry describing various scenarios for the
production and decay of charginos and neutralinos. Depending on the
model parameters chosen, mass values between 180 GeV and 1150 GeV are
excluded at 95% CL. These results significantly extend the parameter
space probed for these particles in searches at the LHC. In addition,
results are presented in a form suitable for alternative theoretical
interpretations. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]
