Researchers have conducted a search for dark matter produced in association with a Z boson using CMS Run 2015D open data. The study employed Neural Spline Flows to model background and signal densities, reducing observational data into a 37-dimensional feature vector. While the analysis did not find evidence for dark matter, it established upper limits on signal-strength parameters for scalar, vector, and axial-vector mediators, noting that observed limits were weaker than expected due to a background modeling discrepancy.
