Quaero@Aleph

Data collected at Aleph have been incorporated into Quaero, an algorithm designed to automate tests of specific hypotheses with high energy collider data. The resulting prototype is Quaero@Aleph (presently password restricted to members of the Aleph collaboration). This article describes the Aleph input to Quaero@Aleph: data, Standard Model processes, systematic errors, and detector simulation. The use of Quaero@Aleph to test minimal supergravity, to search for excited electrons, and to search for Higgs bosons provide examples to develop intuition for the algorithm's performance.
