We have investigated the sensitivity of the CMS experiment
|
| 5 |
ymaravin |
1.6 |
to the detection and study of the $\proton\proton\to\W\Z\to 3 \ell\nu$ process.

Signal and background samples were processed through full simulation,
|

reconstruction and analysis chain of CMS.

The present analysis expects a yield of 35 signal and 13 background events per 300 \invpb of the
|
| 10 |
ymaravin |
1.6 |
CMS integrated luminosity. Chances are, therefore, that first observation of
|
| 11 |
ymaravin |
1.5 |
\WZ\ pair production can be achieved by the end of the first CMS
|
| 12 |
ymaravin |
1.6 |
physics run. We estimate a statistical significance $S_L\simeq 7$ for 300~\invpb.

In this note we develop methods for measuring the background yield
|
| 15 |
|
|
from data. The largest challenge in the background suppression is proved to be the
|
| 16 |
vuko |
1.2 |
rejection of fake electrons originating from hadronic jets or photons. Even
|
| 17 |
|
|
though less problematic, the rejection of true leptons from heavy quark
|
| 18 |
ymaravin |
1.5 |
decays is also an important key in reducing the background. Further work is
|
| 19 |
|
|
planned in these directions together with e$\gamma$ and $\mu$ POGs.

The relatively large signal yield and low level of background for the
|
| 22 |
ymaravin |
1.5 |
the $\WZ\to 3l$ mode makes it particularly attractive for the study of
|
| 23 |
|
|
anomalous neutral triple gauge boson couplings, which should
|
| 24 |
|
|
be done with as little as 500 \invpb. Larger data samples allows restrict or
|
| 25 |
ymaravin |
1.6 |
discover Technicolor and ED Higgs-less \WZ production phenomena.
