  3. Outline • Introduction • Event Selection • Background Estimations • Systematic uncertainties • 1.02fb-1 Results (full EPS datasets) • Conclusion

  4. Introduction • Motivation: • Irreducible background for H→W+W- search • Possible approach to new physics through aTGCs S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  5. WW→lνlν characteristics • Dileptonic decay channels allow signal extraction from large BG • Isolated high pT di-lepton final states are considered: ee, eµ, µµ • Cascaded W→τ+X → e/µ+X also included in addition to the promt W(e or µ) decays • Experiment signature in WW: two OS isolated high pT leptons plus large Etmiss • Backgrounds: • Top (both single and pair production): real leptons and MET • use data-driven normalisation • W+jets: 1 real + 1 fake lepton, real MET • use data-driven shape and normalisation • Drell-Yan Z/g*: real leptons + fake MET • use data-driven systematic uncertainty • Other Dibosons(WZ, ZZ, Wɣ/Zɣ) • based on MC S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  6. 2010 results • 8 WW observed (1 ee, 2 µµ, 5 eµ) with 34pb-1 • 6.85±0.07±0.66 signal Vs 1.68±0.37±0.42 bgd • 3σ evidence for WW processes Documents: Conf. Note, INT Note, PRL draft (accepted) With now 1.02fb-1 more precise measurements expected ! S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  7. Object Selection • Selection strategy similar to 2010 analysis: 2010, 2011 • Optimization driven by increased Luminosity, worse pileup effects and better S/B • Muon definition: • STACO Combined muon, pT>20 GeV, |η|<2.4, z0, d0 significance, other MCP recommended cuts • Isolation: pT(cone20)/pT< 0.1 • Electron definition: • Tight, ET>20GeV (leading electron ET>25 GeV for ee and eμ), |η|<2.47 w/o crack region, z0, d0 significance, OTX cleaning cut (acceptance loss weighted in MC) • Isolation: Etcone30_corrected<4GeV (electron energy leakage and pileup corrections inside the isolation cone applied) • Jet definition (antiKt4topo jet): EM+JES pT>30GeV and |η|<4.5) • MET definition: MET_LocHadTopo with |η|<4.5, lepton energy smearing/rescaling corrections as well as Mutag Muon correction are propogated • Latest MCP/Egamma Energy Rescaling/smearings/eff SFs are applied. S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  8. Event Selection • General pre-selection: • Combine Muons and Egamma streams with duplication removed • Official GRL: WZjets all channels, period D-H • Object overlap removal(e/e, e/µ, e/jet) • MET cleaning (reject larError events, reject SumET<0 events & events with jets in LAr Hole in 2011) • PV (at least 3 associated tracks for the first vertex, Pileup Reweighting applied in MC using official package PileupReweighting-00-00-13accounting both in-time and out-time pileup in 2011) • Trigger: EF_e20_medium (ee), EF_mu18_MG||EF_mu40_MSonly_barrel (μμ), OR of both triggers (eμ), trigger matching applied • Channel-specific selection: • Exactly two prompt, isolated, opposite charge leptons with pT>20GeV • Standard offline physics object –trigger objects matching cone size (0.15 for electrons and 0.1 for muons) S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  9. Event Selection • Remove Drell-Yan contribution: • |Mll-MZ|>15GeV for ee and μμ • Mll>15GeV for ee and μμ, and Mll> 10 GeV for eμ • Further remove Drell-Yan and QCD multi-jet contributions: • METRel > 45,40 GeV for µµ and ee; • > 25 GeV for eµ • Remove top contribution: • Jet veto: no jets of ET > 30 GeV within |η| < 4.5 S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  10. ee: METrel>40GeV reject DY µµ: METrel>45GeV reject DY Jet Veto: reject Top eµ: METrel>25GeV reject DY

  15. Data-driven Drell-Yan background estimation S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  16. Data-driven Drell-Yan background estimation • DY background: lepton or jet energy not well measured • Data-driven method: (ATLAS note: ATL-COM-PHYS-2010-176) • Assume the fraction of DY events after the METrel cut is the same inside or outside of the Z mass window • The non-DY backgrounds can be estimated either using MC simulation or eμ events • e/μ acceptance and efficiency differences accounted using Z→ee/μμ events • MC closure test performed: good agreement between the input and the estimated non-DY background has been observed • Drell-Yan background determined from Alpgen MC prediction and syst. uncertainties determined by comparing METrel distribution in DATA/MC within Z peak Estimated DY yields: Data-driven results: 15.8±1.55±1.7 16.1±1.39±2.7 13.5±2.34±1.9 ee µµ METrel in Z control region

  17. Data-driven W+jets background estimation S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  18. Data-driven W+jets background treatment • Wjets backgrounds estimated by scaling the number of events in the W+jet control sample, Nlepton ID+ Jet-Rich ID with a measured fake factor: • Fake factors(for both e and µ) measured from dijet sample driven from data: • Way-side jet pT requirement assigned to different sub-samples and lepton fake factors are calculated respectively with corresponding syst. addressed e fake factor µ fake factor e fake factor

  19. W+jets background estimation & Same Sign region validation • Final estimation(total contribution: 50.5±4.8(stat)±14.7(syst)): • Systematics: trigger bias, way-side jet pT sub-sample deviation, sample dependence (W+jet vs dijet), real lepton contaminations, etc. • 30% systematics assigned for the fake factor for both electron and muon • Validated in Same Sign Control Region: • Xchecked by Matrix method with good agreement (see backup) S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  20. Syst. study: Sample Dependence • Fake factors are different between Wjets and dijets sample, which is the major syst. Uncertainty of the method. Take the deviation as the corresponding syst.(40%) • Fake factors measured from HF samples(bbcc->e) look a bit surprising. Haven’t assigned yet. Should not be a big deal because of smaller cross section. Zoom in

  21. Syst. study: Trigger Bias • Using JF17 pythia MC sample by removing signal component at truth level • Not dramatic systematic eff observed. • Statistics in numerator sample are still not that much • Assign overall deviation~10% conservatively as trigger bias systematic uncertainty

  22. Syst. study: Electron Fake period dependence • Almost negligible : take 8% conservatively

  23. Wjets background estimation: ee and eµ channel • ee channel: 5.26±0.39±2.21, eµ channel: 7.08±0.57±2.97 • MC extraction effect is dramatic in Fake Rate estimation but not that much in Wjet background yields correction(so neither pseudo nor pure data-driven) • Compatible with John’s results for periodD-H(1fb-1) those syst. need to be further studied:

  24. Data-driven top background estimation S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  25. Data-driven top background estimation • Full jet veto suppress top background(single top and ttbar) • A semi-data-driven method: • Njet≥2: control sample • Assume Events fraction with Njet= 0 and Njet≥2 similar in data and MC (residual SM backgrounds for Njet≥2 in data removed using MC simulation) Njet= 0 top events: 58.6±2.1(stat)±22.3(syst) JES (37%) dominant MC estimation: 56.7 events Cross checked with b-tagged top control sample (see backup) WW signal region

  26. Other diboson backgrounds and final results • Purely MC prediction (normalized to 1 fb−1). • Zγexcluded from total contribution due to overlap with Z+jet backgrounds. • Final results: S+B 63.9 98.8 239.6 402.2 S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  27. Systematics • Syst. Sources accounted: (see backup for detailed summary) • Lepton Systematic: • Lepton reconstruction and identification efficiencies • Lepton isolation efficiency • Lepton energy/momentum scaling and smearing • Jet Veto • MET syst.(in-time and out-time pileup included) • PDF uncertainty. • Dedicated syst. uncertainty from Data-driven background estimation • The luminosity uncertainty (3.7%, listed separately) • The systematic uncertainty of the total cross section measurement is 13.4%, which includes the signal acceptance uncertainty ( ) of 6.8% and uncertainty of the background estimation ( ) of 11.5%. The systematic error is calculated using propagation: S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  28. WW fiducial cross section • Fiducialcross section measured in the following phase space: (Aww and Cww denotation and detail treatment see backup) • Lepton pT>20 GeV, |η|<2.4 for µ and |η|<1.37 or 1.52<|η|<2.47 for electron • Jet pT>30 GeV, |η|<4.5 and ΔR(e, jet) >0.3 • ee channel: MET>40 GeV, mee>15 GeVand |m-mZ|>15 GeV • μμ channel: MET>45 GeV, mμμ>15 GeVand |m-mZ|>15 GeV • eμ channel: MET>25 GeV, meμ>10 GeV Expectation: 46±3 pb and 5.84±0.37 pb S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  29. Conclusion • WW cross section measurement in dileptonic channel using 1.02fb-1 data • 414 candidates observed in 2011 compared to 8 in 2010 • Data-driven methods used for almost all the backgrounds (Drell-Yan, top and W+jets) • Detailed studies done on systematic uncertainties for both signal and backgrounds • 13.4% overall systematic uncertainty and 3.7% for Luminosity accounted separately • Measured xsection 48.2±4.0(stat.)±6.4(syst.)±1.8(lumi.) is consistent with the theoretical prediction of 46±3 pb. Both inclusive and fiducial cross sections measured for three channels S. Li (USTC/CPPM)

  30.

  38. WW cross section measurement strategy • The W+W− fiducial cross section and total cross section are determined from the three dilepton channels (WW→eνeν, μνμν and eνμν) by maximizing log-likelihood functions shown in the following equations: • the coefficients AWW andCWW are definedas follows: • AWW denotes the acceptance for the W+W− decays under consideration, defined as the fraction of decays satisfying the geometrical and kinematical constraints at the generator level (fiducial acceptance). This quantity can only be determined from Monte-Carlo simulations. It is defined here after the decay leptons emit photons via QED final state radiation; photons within a DR < 0.1 cone are added back to the deca leptons (“dressed” leptons). • CWW denotes the ratios between the total number of generated events which pass the final selection requirements after reconstruction and the total number of generated events within the fiducial acceptance. This corrections factor includes the efficiencies for triggering, reconstructing, and identifying the W+W− decays falling within the acceptance. S. Li (USTC/CPPM)
