Model Unspecific Search for New Physics in CMS with 2010 LHC Data    [PDF]

Paul Papacz, for the CMS Collaboration
We present the results of the Model Unspecific Search in CMS (MUSiC), which
systematically scans the data taken by the CMS detector for deviations from the
Standard Model predictions. Due to the minimal theoretical bias this approach
is sensitive to a variety of models for new physics. Events containing at least
one electron or muon are classified according to their content of reconstructed
objects (muons, electrons, photons, jets and missing transverse energy). A
broad scan of three kinematic distributions in those classes is performed by
identifying deviations from Standard Model expectations, accounting for
systematic uncertainties.
In this particular search data taken by CMS in the year 2010, corresponding
to an integrated luminosity of 36.1/pb, have been analysed.
