Exploring Contur beyond its default mode: a case study

Abstract

We discuss Contur's different modes by studying a leptophobic Top-Colour (TC) model. We use, for the first time, higher order calculations for both the signal (NLO) and the background (up to NNLO). We compare the results between the different approaches of Contur. Furthermore, we compare these results to the ones coming from a direct search.
