The TaNC algorithm has been with the goal of maximizing the discriminatory
|
| 2 |
|
|
information available to the algorithm, and can be broken down into four
|
| 3 |
|
|
steps:
|
| 4 |
|
|
|
| 5 |
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
| 6 |
|
|
\item Collect a set of particle-flow objects consistent with a
|
| 7 |
|
|
hadronic tau decay.
|
| 8 |
|
|
\item Merge photon pairs into candidate neutral pions and compute the decay mode of
|
| 9 |
|
|
the tau candidate.
|
| 10 |
|
|
\item Remove objects that are consistent with underlying event
|
| 11 |
|
|
contamination.
|
| 12 |
|
|
\item Apply a discriminant \emph{specific to the reconstructed
|
| 13 |
|
|
decay mode} to the tau candidate.
|
