CDF Logo Search for Anomalous Diphoton+X Production Exotics Logo
This document describes a search for events with two photons and additional identified objects. So far, the additional object may be an electron, muon, missing Et or a third photon. The data are collected in p-pbar collisions at s1/2=1.96 TeV with the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron, Run II. We use nominal high-ET object identification and kinematic selections. We report observed event counts, Standard Model background predictions, and kinematic distributions.

Note that in order to make the error bars on the total number of background visible, the "Antialias" option in the ghostview has to be "unchecked".
All the background are stacked.
