Effects of Tracking Limitations On Jet Mass Resolution Chris Meyer UCSC ILC Simulation Reconstruction Meeting July 3, 2007
Motivation No one has yet studied how tracking limitations effect Jet Reconstruction. • Limit in PT reach • Limit in cos θ reach • Non prompt tracks (KS) • Photon conversion in tracker material
Approach • Use e+ e - q qbar at Ecm = 500 GeV (turn off ISR so that events are evenly distributed) • Find “perfect jets” from MCtruth particles that: • Originate within 1cm and terminate outside 1cm from the origin • Are FINALSTATE or INTERMEDIATE • Are not backscatter • Confirmed Ei = 500 ± a few GeV for this selection • Using a ycut of 0.07 select events with only 2 jets • Calculate Jet/Jet invariant mass
Approach cont. • Apply tracking limitation (e.g. PT > 0.5 GeV cut) • Find jets with cut applied. • If no ycut gives two jets, toss event (<1%) • Compare Jet/Jet mass with “perfect” reconstruction. • Accumulate RMS (δm) of Jet/Jet mass degradation.
Goal For Maximum Degradation: 1% Need to distinguish W’s from Z’s using the Jet/Jet invariant mass from high energy Jets. Our sample has high energy Jets but a Jet/Jet mass of 500 GeV (rather than 100 GeV). Taking two jets of the same energy we find the invariant mass and associated error go as: m2 = 2 (1 – cos θ ) p2 δm2 = 2 (1 – cos θ )δp2 Error on momentum is constant wrt mass, to eliminate the mass dependence from cos θ form fractional error on mass, so that δm2 / m2 = const. wrt mass, so that δm / m = const. wrt mass also To distinguish between a Z and W 10% resolution is required, and to be outside 3 standard deviations brings it down to 3%. Finally to disregard error on tracking we require the error to be 1%. Using 500 GeV uds events, m = 500, which means δm ≤ 5 To keep from degrading W and Z seperation we need an error on invariant mass of less then 5 GeV.
Cuts on charged track PT PT cut of 0.75 GeV δm= 5.62 GeV PT cut of 0.5 GeV δm= 3.49 GeV
K Shorts Finding NO K Shorts δm= 43.61 GeV Finding 90% of K Shorts δm= 11.11 GeV But RMS is still dominated by tails…
K Shorts Finding 90% K Shorts (cutting top 3%) δm= 2.86 GeV
Gamma’s Low energy photons that convert will miss the calorimeter. How many low energy ( < 1 GeV ) photons do we need to find then? Finding NO Photons < 1 GeV δm= 3.45 GeV Finding 90% of Photons < 1 GeV δm= 0.65 GeV
Gamma’s How many photons (no energy cut) do we need to find? Finding NO Photons δm= 69.28 GeV Finding 90% of Photons δm= 14.96 GeV
Conclusions Looking at simple cuts on Jets we have found: • The PT range of any proposed ILC tracker looks fine. • We have to find a good percentage (90%) of the K shorts. • Low energy photons don’t play an enormous role, but when you include higher energy photons you need to find them. Next we plan on running over cos θ cuts and put more stringent cuts on material parameters. This should be accomplished within the next week.
