A data-directed paradigm for BSM searches: the bump-hunting example

Abstract We propose a data-directed paradigm (DDP) to search for new physics. Focusing on the data without using simulations, exclusive selections which exhibit significant deviations from known properties of the standard model can be identified efficiently and marked for further study. Different pr...
