Golden electron Big-brem electron Electron reconstruction – global view • Electron: an object consisting of ECAL SuperCluster + Track • Offline reconstruction different from HLT one • Important effects: • Bremsstrahlung in the tracker material • Incomplete containment in ECAL • Energy lost in the tracker material • Cracks • ECAL superclustering • SuperCluster threshold: ET > 1 GeV • road extended for better bremsstrahlung collection al low pT • GSF tracking algorithm • SuperCluster driven pixel match seeding • With relaxed parameters for offline electrons • Track followed to the outermost layer • Usefull estimate of the bremsstrahlung loss • SuperCluster – Track matching and combinations • Classification for better corrections • E-p combination for better momentum estimation • Many usefull variables for better identification S.Baffioni6Réunion CMS-France, 30/03 /06

Offline analysis - global view Starting with: • Impact parameter • Transverse IP significance • To supress electrons from displaced vertices in tt and Zbb • Isolation • Track isolation • Hadronic isolation • Electron identification • Refining further selection using characteristic variables • Missing ET • Suppresing mainly tt • Kinematical cuts • Electron pT • On and off-shell Z mass windows S.Baffioni8Réunion CMS-France, 30/03 /06

Track Isolation • Track based electron isolation • Sum tracks within an isolation cone around each electron direction in () planeR = ()1/2 = 0.2 cut: (pT)/pT < 0.1 • A veto cone R = 0.015 is defined around the electron track • Consider only tracks coming from the electron primary vertex |Lip| < 0.1, with pT > 1.5 GeV • If another electron in the isolation cone: not considered if mee >10 GeV • All 4 electrons required isolated Total (loose included) isolation Signal (150 GeV) efficiency Background(tt) rejection power wrt to IP acceptance S.Baffioni10Réunion CMS-France, 30/03 /06

Electron Pt cuts • Motivation: • Backgrounds have important fraction of low pT electrons • But low mass Higgs has them too need balancing • Impose cuts for pT sorted electrons After electron Pt cuts wrt to missing Et acceptance S.Baffioni15Réunion CMS-France, 30/03 /06
