A preselection serves two purposes, first to ensure that passing events only utilize a "good" region of the detector with

## Setup Ahead of Session
To more efficiently help with debugging, we are going to use remote access of your terminal through [tmate](https://tmate.io/). The way this application works is that you can initialize it (by calling 'tmate') and it'll start a session of your terminal that is viewable and editable online. In the website linked it shows how that looks like. If you feel comfortable letting the facilitators use this with you, follow the steps below to install tmate.

## Idea of 2D Alphabet
Normally, we do a shape hunt along some observable and measure our background is near-by kintemtic regions to estimate its expected yield in the signal region. For our case, there is a clever way to do all these tasks simultaneously. Since we are scanning across m<sub>tW</sub>, with a window designated as a Signal Region, we can use all the non-window space to fit a smooth function that extrapolates over the SR window.
