Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author presents a search for anomalous kinematics of t$ar{t}$ dilepton events in p$ar{p}$ collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV using 193 pb-1 of data collected with the CDF II detector. They developed a new a priori technique designed to silate the subset in a data sample revealing the largest deviation from Standard Model expectations and to quantify the significance of this departure. In the four-variable space considered, no particular subset shows a significant discrepancy and they find that the probability to obtain a data sample less consistent with the Standard Model than what is observed is 1.0-4.5%.
