1 benhoob 1.1 \section{Interpretation}
2    
3 benhoob 1.3 In this section, we interpret the results of the targeted search in the context of the \wzmet\ model depicted in Fig.~\ref{fig:diagrams} (right).
4     An interpretation in the GMSB model which produces a signature of \zzmet\ will be added. The results of the targeted search presented here
5     will be combined with those of the trilepton ewkino search for the final \wzmet\ interpretation, and with the quadlepton ewkino search
6     for the final GMSB \zzmet\ interpretation.
7    
8     The exclusion is performed using the results of simultaneous counting experiments in the exclusive \MET\ signal regions defined by \MET\ $>$ 80 GeV,
9     as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:results_targ} (commonly referred to as a ``shape analysis'').
10     The signal efficiency times acceptance and cross section upper limits are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:results_wzmet},
11     along with the observed and expected exclusion contours, which are compared to the 2011 observed exclusion contour.
12     Figure~\ref{fig:results_wzmetpoints} shows the excluded points used to derive the exclusion contours. We note that the map of exclusion
13     contours appears quite ragged since for many of the points the cross section upper limit is very close to the theory cross section.
14     Therefore we do not expect the ragged exclusion region to be an issue for the final results since
15     we currently have 9.2 fb$^{-1}$ and expect the luminosity to increase significantly. A {\bf VERY APPROXIMATE} projection of the expected excluded region
16     for an integrated luminosity of 15 fb$^{-1}$ (a rough guess at the final HCP data sample) is obtained by scaling the expected cross section limits by
17     $\sqrt{(9.2 \rm{fb}^{-1})/(15 \rm{fb}^{-1})}$, as displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:results_15fb}.
