Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	SUBSEQUENT EVENT Segment Reporting Changes. In December 2023, we decided to re-organize our operating segments and move our cell analysis business, which currently is included in our life science and applied markets segment, to our diagnostics and genomics operating segment. Following this re-organization, we will continue to have three businesses - life sciences and applied markets, diagnostics and genomics and Agilent CrossLab- each of which will comprise a reportable segment. All historical segment financial information will be recast to conform to this new reporting structure in our financial statements and accompanying notes, beginning with our Form 10-Q filing for the first quarter of fiscal year 2024. There will be no change to our Agilent CrossLab business segment.
