- raverbashing 12y agoThe relevant part: " Two leptonic production mechanisms are considered: decays of squarks and gluinos with Z bosons in the final state, resulting in a peak in the dilepton invariant mass distribution around the Z-boson mass; and decays of neutralinos (e.g. ˜χ 0 2 → ` + ` −χ˜ 0 1 ), resulting in a kinematic endpoint in the dilepton invariant mass distribution. For the former,an excess of events above the expected Standard Model background is observed, with a significance of 3 standard deviations. In the latter case, the data are well-described by the expected Standard Model background."
- jesuslop 12y agoWhithout pretending to be in the know by the least, I recall that around 3 sigmas in favour of the Higgs, Peter Woit was reporting about the rumorology on that discovery that later was confirmed, I think that the consensus target could be about 5 sigmas. http://kipac.stanford.edu/kipac/how-special-3-sigma http://kipac.stanford.edu/kipac/how-special-3-sigma http://blog.higgshunters.org/tag/5-sigma/ http://blog.higgshunters.org/tag/5-sigma/ http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/?p=4772 http://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/?p=4772
- krastanov 12y agoWhenever an arxiv link is posted this comes up: It is more useful to link to the arxiv page for the article (http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.03290 http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.03290), not just to the pdf file.
- dang 12y agoThanks. We changed the url.
- raverbashing 12y agoSo maybe remove the pdf indication as well?
- dang 12y agoSure.
