STXS Topics

References of interest:

Initial discussion (June 7)

Goal of the session: identify topics for detailed discussion

To be discussed Thursday 10:30-12:00:

STXS:

  • presentation of the experimental results (which information to make public and how)
  • interpretation of STXS results (what is needed from experiment and theory for a simple interpretations such as STXS → production mode signal strength by someone outside of the experiments)
  • merging of STXS bins (in case of no experimental sensitivity to a given bin, and/or large correlations. Do we want to propose a “stage-0.5”?)

Differential xs:

  • additional variables of interest for differential measurements
  • how to estimate uncertainties related to model dependence (assuming SM in the calculation of acceptance corrections)

Discussion summaries:  blackboard and  whiteboard at the end of the discussion.

To be discussed Thursday 16:30-18:30:

STXS:

  • parametrization of theory uncertainties for VBF and VH (identification of uncorrelated sources in the predictions)
  • treatment of gg→Z(→qq)H (currently this is absorbed into gg→H, should it stay like this? should we define dedicated STXS bins?)
  • ttH: introduction of dedicated STXS bins?

Presentation and interpretation of experimental results (June 8)
