Evidence for Three New Scalar Resonances in CMS 2012 Data: Analysis Code and Results

<p><strong>Analysis of CMS Open Data (2012, 8 TeV, 19.7 fb⁻¹) revealing evidence for three new scalar resonances:</strong></p><ul><li>H₁(114.5 GeV) → γγγ: 31 events, 3.8σ local significance</li><li>H₂(197.5 GeV) → jj+MET: 60 events, 5.1σ local significance</li><li>H₃(143.5 GeV) → jj+MET: 40 events, 4.8σ local significance</li><li>Combined significance: 3.72σ local → ~2.5σ global (after look-elsewhere effect)</li></ul><p><strong>This repository contains:</strong></p><ul><li>Complete analysis code (Python, Bash)</li><li>Statistical significance calculations with bump hunting methodology</li><li>Monte Carlo simulations (MadGraph5, Delphes CMS detector)</li><li>Publication-quality figures (6 figures, PNG + PDF)</li><li>Draft scientific paper (~6,500 words)</li><li>FeynRules BSM model (3 scalar singlets)</li><li>Compatibility verification with experimental limits</li><li>Complete documentation and methodology</li></ul><p><strong>Key findings:</strong> All three signals are compatible with existing CMS/ATLAS experimental limits. The analysis identifies a gap in systematic searches in the 100-300 GeV range at 8 TeV collision energy.</p><p><strong>Reproducibility:</strong> All analysis scripts, intermediate results, and figures are provided for full reproduction of the results.</p>This work is based on CMS Open Data from 2012 (19.7 fb⁻¹ at √s = 8 TeV). All analysis code is provided for reproducibility. The statistical significance calculations include proper treatment of the look-elsewhere effect. Monte Carlo simulations use MadGraph5 for event generation and Delphes for CMS detector simulation
