Wes Thesis Defense

Wimp Miracle ? What was miraculous about it?

• Flying misquote is about 7 TeV.
• Wedge shows more information that is actually there!
  • (How do we know the neutrino cant be dark matter ?)
• Why not taus?
• s26: Actual conversions or effect of efficiency
• Shane on zoom?
• Matt:
  • Wimp Miracle, why cold dark matter. Top-down vs bottom-up
  • Small scales form first and then grow… wouldnt get that with neutrino dark matter.
  • Natural target for WIMPs
  • Direct detection experiments do they have an impact?
• Valentina:
  • How do we get fakes?…W + jets / Z + jets
  • in displaced DY + bjets
  • How much do you gain from low pT
  • How did you optimize the ID ?
  • Why 10s of cms most interesting ?
  • Higgsino / Wino-Bino
• Manfred:
  • Comparison with ATLAS
  • What about conversions
  • How was binning optimized ?
  • HL LHC more data, but with more PU? What changes ?
  • Module: What is the baseplate for ? Why PCB ?
• Eva:
  • How to combined HGC with the analysis
  • Test structures vs Cells in the Modules.
  • Nice that they agree !
• John:
  • Why no e/µ?
