Screenshot of lyrics: [Verse 1] I was raised up believing I was somehow unique Like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes Unique in each way you'd conceive And now after some thinking I'd say I'd rather be A functioning cog in some great machinery Serving something beyond me
Histogram showing jet mass spectrum, dominated by QCD background, ttbar is barely visible
Histograms showing a comparison between pseudodata and the fitted estimates of signal and background in four different features.
A plot showing delta log likelihood curves of different methods to compare sensitivity. The new method HI-SIGMA, is seen to be the most precise, having the narrowest curve
Significance of normal bump hunt (x-axis) versus the achieved signifcance of our anomaly detection approach (y-axis) for the three different signal models. All reach 5 sigma with the anomaly detection approach for x values less then 2 sigma
Three feynman diagrams producing di-tau resonances in association with additional particles
A comparison of CMS's data and their predicted backgrounds. An excess of data is seen at low invariant masses. The excess is well described by a new particle (shown in as a red line)
A pie chart showing the yes/no answers to the question 'Would you prioritize R&D for a multi-TeV muon collider over Higgs factory construction?'. 70% of respondents answered yes
A bar chart showing the average rankings of different collider options. Linear collider with muon collider R&D and FCC-ee with muon collider R&D have the highest average ranking (2.6), followed by a straight to FCC-hh option (3.1 average), FCC-ee followed by FCC-hh (3.2 average) and Linear ee with FCC-hh magnet R&D (3.5 average)
A box and whisker plot showing the ratings for excitement (on a 1 to 5 scale) FCC-ee (mean 3.2), Linear-ee (mean 3.2), FCC-hh at 85 TeV (mean 3.7), Muon collider at 3 TeV (mean 4.1) and Muon collider at 10 TeV (mean 4.6)
A contour diagram showing the likelihood of the excess cross section, showing > 5 sigma away from the background only hypothesis
Slide showing a timeline for magnet development for FCC-hh
A plinko style arcade game titled the Small Hadron Collider and various particle themed winning bins
A man in an orange hard hat smiling in front of the open cms detector
Plot showing upper limits on the cross section four different signal models from the 6 different anomaly detection methods used in the search
