Sandhya Jain Satyaki Bhattacharya University of Delhi, Delhi Generator level study of gamma +MET using Sherpa
Introduction • In 1998, Large extra dimension (LED) were proposed as a solution to hierarchy problem by ADD. • It builds up saying that gravity can propagate in extra dimensions giving rise to a relation given as, Mpl^2 = Md^(n+2) * R ^n where, R is the size of compactified Extra-Dimension, Md and n are the parameters of the theory. • Gravitational field in extra-dimensions is carried by a particle called graviton whose signatures can be found at LHC. • For a direct graviton production, MET becomes a signature. • So, I am interested in looking for + MET as the signal for the direct graviton production at LHC.
Sherpa- A Monte Carlo Event Generator • produces events that are qualified to be put into detector simulations used by various experiments. • versatile to inbuilt matrix element and phase space generator AMEGIC ++ & PHASIC ++ which calculate and integrate tree level amplitudes. This feature makes Sherpa to be used as cross section integrator and parton level event generator as well. • provides the implementation of CKKW merging, which provides the improved description of multi jet production processes .

Cross-section Vs n at Md = 2TeV • As n increases, the x-section decreases.
Cuts used • pt of > 100 GeV • Md = 1TeV, 2TeV • Ecms = 10.0 TeV CMSSW 2_2_4 is being used for this studies.

Summary & Future Plans • Till the time of last meeting, I was looking at the photon reconstruction at CMS using CMSSW (keeping in mind a search with photon in the final state). • I have just started looking at the generator level plots of MET+ gamma (signal). • I have presented my initial results with CMSSW_2_1_10 in the QCD photons group while at CERN in January. • As my next step, I would like to do a study of Z gamma at generator level where Z -> bar, which is a background to this process. • Then, would like to proceed with the simulation and reconstruction.
