64 Ronan McNulty, Irish Quantum Foundations 64 Inelastic background Signal shape Estimated from Superchic using exp(- b p 2 T ) (arxiv: ) Take b from HERA data. Extrapolate to LHCb energies to get b= 6.1 +/- 0.3 GeV -2 Crosscheck: Fit to spectrum below with b free gives b = 5.8 +/- 1 GeV -2 JPG 40 (2013) Purity of exclusive signal below 900 MeV/c p T = (70 ± 4 ± 6)% Inelastic background shape Estimated from data. Characterise shape for 3-8 tracks and extrapolate to 2 tracks. This approach works for QED production of dimuons, tested using LPAIR simulation. Also checked with PYTHIA simulation of diffractive events.

65 Ronan McNulty, Irish Quantum Foundations 65 LHCb compared to theory & experiment * All predictions (bar Schaefer&Szcaurek) have similar approach and give similar results and are consistent with our data.

72 Ronan McNulty, Irish Quantum Foundations 72 Conclusions Rich variety of physics available from LHC Standard Model has so far resisted all our attempts to break it! Precision physics and new energy regimes are key to improved understanding Irish physics very much involved at the energy frontier.

Experimentally difficult to separate three resonances and determine non-resonant background for each.
