Abstract:
We describe QUAERO, a method that (i) enables the automatic optimization of searches for physics beyond the standard model, and (ii) provides a mechanism for making high energy collider data generally available. We apply QUAERO to searches for standard model WW, ZZ, and tt¯ production, to searches for these objects produced through a new heavy resonance, and to the first direct search for W′→WZ. Through this interface, we make three data sets collected by the D0 experiment at s=1.8TeV publicly available.Received 7 June 2001DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.87.231801©2001 American Physical Society
