"Figure 001" of "Stairway to discovery: a report on the CMS programme of cross section measurements from millibarns to femtobarns"

Cross sections of selected high-energy processes measured by the CMS experiment. Measurements performed at different LHC pp collision energies are marked by unique symbols and the coloured bands indicate the combined statistical and systematic uncertainty of the measurement. Grey bands indicate the uncertainty of the corresponding SM theory predictions. Shaded hashed bars indicate the excluded cross section region for a production process with the measured 95% CL upper limit on the process indicated by the solid line of the same colour.

本数据集收录了紧凑渺子线圈（CMS）实验所测量的若干选定高能物理过程的截面（cross section）数据。在大型强子对撞机（LHC）不同质子-质子（pp）碰撞能量下开展的测量以独特符号标注，彩色色带代表对应测量的统计与系统误差综合不确定度。灰色色带代表对应标准模型（Standard Model，SM）理论预言的不确定度。带阴影的斜线填充柱形代表某产生过程的排除截面区域，该过程的测量所得95%置信上限（Confidence Limit，CL）由同色实线标注。
