Test Beam Performance Measurements for the Phase I Upgrade of the CMS Pixel Detector
M. Dragicevic, M. Friedl, J. Hrubec +481
A new pixel detector for the CMS experiment was built in order to cope with the instantaneous luminosities anticipated for the Phase~I Upgrade of the LHC. The new CMS pixel detecto…
Frequentist Evaluation of Intervals Estimated for a Binomial Parameter and for the Ratio of Poisson Means
Robert D. Cousins, Kathryn E. Hymes, Jordan Tucker
Confidence intervals for a binomial parameter or for the ratio of Poisson means are commonly desired in high energy physics (HEP) applications such as measuring a detection efficie…
Evaluation of three methods for calculating statistical significance when incorporating a systematic uncertainty into a test of the background-only hypothesis for a Poisson process
Robert D. Cousins, James T. Linnemann, Jordan Tucker
Hypothesis tests for the presence of new sources of Poisson counts amidst background processes are frequently performed in high energy physics (HEP), gamma ray astronomy (GRA), and…
