Reddiment is a web-based dashboard that links sentiment analysis of subreddit texts with share prices. The system consists of a backend, frontend and various services. The backend, in Node.js, manages the data and communicates with crawlers that collect Reddit comments and stock market data. Sentiment is analyzed with the help of Vader and TextBlob. The frontend, based on SvelteKit, provides users with a dashboard for visualization. The distribution is carried out via Docker containers and Docker Compose. The project offers expansion options, e.g. the integration of cryptocurrency rates. Reddiment enables the analysis of sentiment and share prices from subreddit data.

A search is presented for narrow resonances decaying to dijet final states in proton–proton collisions at s√=13TeV using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 12.9 $fb{−1}$. The dijet mass spectrum is well described by a smooth parameterization and no significant evidence for the production of new particles is observed. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are reported on the production cross section for narrow resonances with masses above 0.6 TeV. In the context of specific models, the limits exclude string resonances with masses below 7.4 TeV, scalar diquarks below 6.9 TeV, axigluons and colorons below 5.5 TeV, excited quarks below 5.4 TeV, color-octet scalars below 3.0 TeV, W′ bosons below 2.7 TeV, Z′ bosons below 2.1 TeV and between 2.3 and 2.6 TeV, and RS gravitons below 1.9 TeV. These extend previous limits in the dijet channel. Vector and axial-vector mediators in a simplified model of interactions between quarks and dark matter are excluded below 2.0 TeV. The first limits in the dijet channel on dark matter mediators are presented as functions of dark matter mass and are compared to the exclusions of dark matter in direct detection experiments.

The cross sections for the production of $t\overline{t}b\overline{b}$ and $t\overline{t}jj$ events and their ratio $\sigma_{t\overline{t}b\overline{b}} / \sigma_{t\overline{t}jj}$ are measured using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 $fb^{−1}$collected in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. Events with two leptons (e or μ) and at least four reconstructed jets, including at least two identified as b quark jets, in the final state are selected. In the full phase space, the measured ratio is $0.022 \pm 0.003(stat) \pm 0.006(syst)$, the cross section $\sigma_{t\overline{t}b\overline{b}}$ is $4.0 \pm 0.6(stat) \pm 1.3(syst)pb$ and $\sigma_{t\overline{t}jj}$ is $184 \pm 6(stat) \pm 33(syst)pb$. The measurements are compared with the standard model expectations obtained from a powheg simulation at next-to-leading-order interfaced with pythia.
