If new particles are produced at the LHC, it is vital that we can extract as much information as possible from them about the underlying theory. I will discuss some recent work on extracting spin information from invariant mass distributions of new particles. I will then introduce the Kullback-Leibler method of quantifying our ability to distinguish different scenarios.
