Search for new physics in high-mass diphoton events from proton-proton collisions at s... by Hayrapetyan, A., Tumasyan, A., Adam, W., Andrejkovic, J. W., Bergauer, T., Chatterjee, S., Damanakis, K., Dragicevic, M., Hussain, P. S., Jeitler, M., Krammer, N., Li, A., Liko, D., Mikulec, I., Schieck, J., Schöfbeck, R., Schwarz, D.

“…Events with a diphoton invariant mass greater than 500 GeV are considered. Two different techniques are used to predict the standard model backgrounds: parametric fits to the smoothly-falling background and a first-principles calculation of the standard model diphoton spectrum at next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics calculations. …”
