  6. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Current limits Present best limits: • LEP II (indirect) • D0 Run II (see talk from D.Sojot on Friday) • For mSugra: tanb=3, A0=0,m<0, q=u,d,c,s,b: • 4j(gg) :M0=500 GeV-> M(g) >233 GeV/c2 • 3j(gq) :M(g)=M(q) -> M(q) >333 GeV/c2 • 2j(qq) :M0=25 GeV -> M(q) >318 GeV/c2 ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  7. s46 s41 s35 Reference SUSY points • Chosen region not excluded by other experiments • Simulated several mSUGRA points in M0-M1/2 with A0=0, sign(m)=-1, tanb=5 and third generation removed from 2  2 process (Isajet) • Chosen 3 points to optimise the analysis selection criteria GeV/c2 ~ ~ ~ G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  8. Analysis Strategy COUNTING EXPERIMENT • Optimise selection criteria for best signal/background value; • Apply selection criteria to the data • Define the signal region and keep it blind • Test agreement observed vs. expected number of events in orthogonal regions (“control regions”) • Look in the signal region and count number of SUSY events !! • Or set limit on the model G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  9. Trigger and Event pre-Selection • Trigger on Missing Transverse Energy>35 GeV + 2 jets (ET>10 GeV) • Apply “Basic Cuts” to clean up the sample and eliminate effects MC does not reproduce • beam losses • cosmic and beam halo muons • detector failures (hot/dead towers, poorly instrumented regions,…) G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  10. Backgrounds +SUSY • Several SM processes can give jets with missing energy: • Z nn + 3 jets • Wn + 2/3 jets • Top-antitop • Z + 2/3 jets • WW • Hadron jets (“QCD” events) [1] Cacciari et. al., JHEP 404, 68(2004) G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  11. Hadron Jets Background • Selected regiondominated by Jet events in the data satisfying the pre-selection criteria • Compared distributions MC events to data and obtained scale factor to the MC ~1.0 CDF Run II preliminary CDF Run II preliminary Fit: 1.02  0.01 G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  12. Analysis Event selection Selection criteria optimised using S/B To reject QCD To reject electrons Signal region Using these selection criteria: (254pb-1) G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  13. S/B SUSY Monte Carlo Different mSUGRA parameter values have been studied: number of flavours, tanb and sign of mfor the same value of M0-M1/2. CDF Run II CDF Run I and D0 Run II generations CDF Run I changing sign m No large difference observed over all scenarios-> small model dependency G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  14. Control Regions • Several regions different from the signal region (“control regions”) examined to verify the robustness of the Monte Carlo predictions: analysed two: CR1: Veto electron (EM fraction < 0.9) -> QCD dominated Hadron jets: 165  6 EW: 36  2 Tot Expected: 201  6 Observed: 183  14 CR1 & CR2 Signal Region Only statistical uncertainty CR2: Require EM fraction > 0.9 -> EW and QCD similar Hadron Jets: 16  1 EW : 12  1 Tot Expected:281 Observed: 235 CDF Run II preliminary 254 pb-1 CDF Run II preliminary, 254 pb-1 Good agreement Data-MC CR1 CR1 G.

  15. Systematic Uncertainties G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  16. Looking at the Signal Region • In L = 254 pb-1 : • SM Expected Events = 4.1  1.5 • Observed Events = 3 HT distribution after applying all the cuts except HT >350 GeV MET distribution after applying all the cuts except MET >165 GeV G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  17. Event 1 HT = ET(1st) + ET(2nd) + ET(3rd) = 404 GeV ET(1st) = 172 GeV ET(2nd) = 153 GeV ET(4th) = 65 GeV ET (3rd) = 80 GeV Missing ET = 223.3 GeV G. Manca (U.Liverpool) SUSY05, Durham (UK), 20 July 2005

  18. Conclusions and Outlook • Performed blind search for squark and gluinos over 254 pb-1 CDF RUN II data • Selection criteria have been optimised for several mSugra scenarios: • Find relatively small dependence on tanb, sign of m and and number of flavours • Demonstrated good understanding of data and SM backgrounds in “control regions” • No evidence for Squarks and Gluinos • Data agree with background estimate • Full interpretation in progress • Future improvements with increased luminosity G.

  28. Jet Energy Scale at CDF • A Jet = energy deposited in the hadronic calorimeter in a cone of R=0.7(this analysis) • An Energy Correction is necessary to scale the measured energy back to the energy of the final state particle level jet (due to several effects as non-linearity of the calorimeter or un-instrumented regions of the detector) • The factor we apply accounts for all these effects, using different methods; e.g. balancing g-jet Pt of the g-jet system: Before relative corrections After corrections • DATA • Pythia • Herwig G.
