- I was responsible for the day-to-day supervision of the PhD student who was the main analyser. I provided input to all the major parts of the analysis, from the selection through to the statistical technique used for the search for supersymmetry particles. The paper measures the spin correlation between top-quark pairs with significantly better precision than previously achieved. The paper features the novel use of this precision measurement to set limits on a previously unexplored region of supersymmetric extensions to the Standard Model.
