Search for New Physics in the $\gamma + b + j + \not\!\!{E_{T}}$ + X Final State

ORAL

Abstract

Given the large number of predicted and as-yet-unknown models of new physics, the first signals of new processes may appear in any final state. In this study we analyse the $\gamma+b+jet+\not\!\!{E_{T}}$ state. Without the constraints of a particular model prediction, we examine the kinematics of the events and compare to the standard model prediction. We use 1.8 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by CDF at the Tevatron at $\sqrt s = 1.96$ TeV.
