Selection of candidates Each candidate is required to satisfy: The invariant mass of the two tracks, treated as massless is required to satisfy: (to remove conversions) For all plots except mass reconstruction, The invariant mass of the two tracks, treated as pions is required to satisfy
Reconstruction of mass • The mass distribution of candidates fitted to a single Gaussian:
The mass distribution of candidates fitted to a double Gaussian:
Attempt to measure efficiencies from data • It was thought that the reconstruction efficiency might be obtainable from the measured decay distance and distributions without MC input by using the known lifetime distribution. • This set of equations describes the relationship between the distributions after binning: • Without further assumptions there is variables and equations. One must make further assumptions to be able to solve these equations • However, since the reconstruction efficiency is a strong function of the parameters this is problematic
Prospects • Seeking new approaches for measuring the reconstruction efficiency from data
