    Interpretation studies

    Searches for BSM signatures at the LHC often involve sophisticated analyses which exploit numerous kinematic and detector level discriminators to distinguish a potential signal from the large SM backgrounds and achieve the highest sensitivity. Exact re-interpretations of such searches often require detailed knowledge about the likelihood models used, which are impractical to provide to the...

  5. 13. Reinterpretation of Flavour Constraints
    Marcin Chrzaszcz (Universitaet Zuerich (CH), Institute of Nuclear Physics (PL)), Nazila Mahmoudi (CERN and Lyon University (FR))
    12/12/2016, 14:00

    The talk presents the recasting of LHCb results of the electroweak penguin decays in terms of Wilson Coefficient fits. We will furthermore discuss methods of publishing flavour likelihoods that allow for easier interpretations

  6. 30. LHADA update
    Sezen Sekmen (Kyungpook National University (KR))

    The Les Houches Analysis Description Accord (LHADA) proposal is a formalism capable of describing the physics content of an LHC analysis in a standard and unambiguous way independent of any computing framework. Since the initial proposal in May 2016, we designed code to parse LHADA and interface it with various existing analysis frameworks; we wrote several example analysis implementations in...

  9. 11. CERN Analysis Preservation: A Platform for Capturing and Reusing Analyses
    Tibor Simko (CERN)
    12/12/2016, 16:30

    The preservation and reuse of analyses require access to the virtual environment, code, data, and workflow configuration that was used to produce the original results. We are developing a set of tools that will support researchers in preserving the knowledge around analyses so that capturing, sharing and reusing becomes easier.

    The presentation will demonstrate the nascent CERN Analysis...
