Global search for new physics at CDF

arXiv:0809.0048 · doi:10.1063/1.3052045

Abstract

A model-independent global search for new physics has been performed at the CDF experiment. This search examines 399 final states, looking for discrepancies between observation and the standard model expectation in populations, kinematic shapes, bumps in mass distributions suggestive of new resonances and the tails of the summed transverse momentum distribution. This global search reveals no evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model in 2.0 fb^-1 of p-pbar collisions at sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV.
