RE: A crash course on particle physics (towards our steemSTEM meetup at CERN) - 6 - pushing the frontiers further with particle accelerators

Yes exactly. For instance, if one is are looking for the Higgs boson in a final state where there are four muons, we will ignore, in our analysis, any collision that does not contain any muon. This sounds logical, but the basic idea is there :)
