CMS Results at the $\text{t}\bar{\text{t}}$ threshold

Recent results of CMS at the top-antitop quark pair production threshold in the dileptonic and semileptonic decay channels are presented. The results were obtained analyzing $138{\mathrm{f}\mathrm{b}}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data taken at $\sqrt{s}=13\mathrm{T}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{V}$ with the CMS detector. Spin-sensitive variables are combined with the $t\bar{t}$ invariant mass $m_{t\bar{t}}$ to achieve high sensitivity for intermediate heavy pseudoscalar or scalar states. An excess in the data is observed for low values of $m_{t\bar{t}}$, favoring a pseudoscalar over a scalar hypothesis. The results are given in the interpretation of a simplified $t\bar{t}$ bound state model ${\eta }_t$ and in a generic model for heavy (pseudo)scalar production. The observed excess is compatible with non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) calculations for a $t\bar{t}$ bound state.
