- Author contribution statement
- I led the analysis team of three people and performed the majority of the spin correlation measurement and interpretation, including investigating potential sources of a 3.2 sigma deviation from the Standard Model (SM). The high precision of the result and the tension with SM predictions led to numerous phenomenology papers and improved theoretical calculations in an attempt to explain this tension. The result also excludes the possibility of light supersymmetric stop particles in a region that was previously unexplored and which is not accessible in traditional searches.
