187   \subsection{\WZ candidate selection}
188  
189   Events are accepted if they contain at least three charged leptons,
190 < either electrons or muons, with $p_t > 15\,\mathrm{GeV}$ and $| \eta | < 2.5$ for
191 < electrons,$| \eta | < 2.4$ for muons.
136 < as discussed in~\ref{sec:leptonId}.
190 > either electrons or muons, with $p_T > 15\,\mathrm{GeV}$ and $| \eta | < 2.5$ for
191 > electrons,$| \eta | < 2.4$ for muons, as discussed in Section~\ref{sec:leptonId}.
192  
193   The \WZ candidate selection proceeds from building all possible
194   \Z-boson candidates from same-flavour opposite-charge lepton pairs.
195 < For $\Z \to ee$ decays, electrons have to fullfil the loose requirements
195 > For $\Z \to ee$ decays, electron candidates have to fulfill the loose requirements
196   defined in~\cite{noteElectronID}.
197  
198 < Events are retained if the mass of this \Z-boson candidate is
199 < within 20 GeV of the Z-boson mass,$m_Z$. The event is
200 < rejected if a second Z candidate is found. This second Z candidate is done
201 < with all possible same-flavour opposite-charge combinations which are left
202 < after removing the two leptons already used for the first Z candidate. This
203 < veto on the presence of a second Z helps to suppress $ZZ$ events. The invariant
204 < mass distribution for accepted \Z candidates is shown in
205 < Figure~\ref{fig:zcandidates}.
198 > Events are retained if the mass of the \Z boson candidate is
199 > within 20 GeV of the \Z boson mass, $m_Z$. The event is
200 > rejected if a second \Z candidate is found. This second \Z boson candidate is formed
201 > using all possible same-flavour opposite-charge combinations which are left
202 > after removing the two leptons already used for the first \Z boson candidate. This
203 > secondary \Z boson veto helps to suppress $\Z\Z$ events.
204 > %The invariant
205 > %mass distribution for accepted \Z candidates is shown in
206 > %Figure~\ref{fig:zcandidates}.

208   % and the \Z mass resolution is shown in
209   %Figure~\ref{fig:dzmass}.
210  
211 < After the \Z-boson candidate is identified, the lepton associated
212 < to the  \W-boson decay is chosen from the remaining electrons and muons
213 < in the event that have not been used for reconstructing the \Z-boson.
214 < Electrons are required to pass the tight criteria described in
215 < \cite{noteElectronID}.  If the event contains more than three leptons,
216 < the highest $p_t$ is chosen as the one from the \W-boson decay, and
217 < the additional leptons are not considered further.
218 < The transverse momentum of this lepton is required to be larger
219 < than 20 GeV. This last requirement is effective in rejecting
220 < the \Zbbbar and \Zjets backgrounds, see Figure~\ref{fig:wlpt_cuteff},
221 < and the cut value is chosen in
222 < the range that maximises the significance as shown in
223 < Figure~\ref{fig:wlpt_cutS}.
224 <
225 < An additional requirement on the isolation between electron and muons is applied
226 < for the $2\mu 1e$ channel, by demanding $\Delta R$ between the electron associated
171 < to the \W-decay and any of the two muons associated to the \Z-decay be greater than
172 < 0.1. This requirement allows to suppress the contributions of $\Z \to \mu\mu$
211 > After the \Z boson candidate is identified, the remaining leptons in the event
212 > are required, for electrons, to pass the tight criteria described in~\cite{noteElectronID}
213 > or, for muons, all criteria described in section~\ref{sec:leptonId}.
214 > If more than one lepton candidate satisfies the tight requirements, the one with the
215 > highest $p_T$ is associated with \W boson decay. This lepton's $p_T$ is effective
216 > discriminant against \Zbbbar and \Zjets production (see Fig.~\ref{fig:wlpt_cuteff}).
217 > We require the transverse momentum to exceed 20 GeV, as it maximizes
218 > the significance of the \WZ\ signal with respect to background as shown in
219 > Fig.~\ref{fig:wlpt_cutS}.
220 >
221 > An additional requirement on the isolation between electron and muon candidates is applied
222 > for the $2\mu 1e$ channel, by demanding the value of $\Delta R$ between the electron
223 > candidate associated with the \W boson decay and any of the two muons associated with
224 > the \Z boson decay to be greater than 0.1.
225 >
226 > This requirement allows suppressing the contribution of $\Z \to \mu\mu$
227   decays, where one of the two muons radiates a photon which is reconstructed
228 < as electrons, possibly after conversion, which shows up as a peak at  around 60 GeV
229 < in the Z mass distribution, as shown in figure~\ref{fig:Z2mu1e_60GeVPeak}.
228 > as an electron, possibly after conversion. This can be seen as a peak in the dimuon
229 > invariant mass at  around 60 GeV in Fig.~\ref{fig:Z2mu1e_60GeVPeak}.
230  
231 < The summary of the selection can be seen in Table~\ref{tab:allcuts}.
231 > The summary of the selection criteria is given in Table~\ref{tab:allcuts}.
232  
233 < The expected number of events passing the various steps of the selection
234 < is listed in Tables~\ref{tab:sel-effA} and~\ref{tab:sel-effB}.
235 < Table~\ref{tab:wz-effimatrix} lists the final selection efficiency for
236 < the different generated \W and \Z decays. It can be seen there that \WZ\
237 < events with both the \W and the \Z boson decaying into electrons or muons
238 < almost always get reconstructed with the correct flavour. It is to be
239 < noted in addition that each of our four selection channels gets a small
240 < contribution from $W \to \tau \to e/\mu$ decays as one would expect. The
241 < selection efficiency for these events is however smaller which is mostly due
242 < to the \pt cut on the third lepton, since the \pt spectrum of electrons or
243 < muons from $W \to \tau \to e/\mu$ decays is softer.
233 > The expected number of the events satisfying the sequential steps of the selection
234 > is listed in Tables~\ref{tab:sel-effA}.  
235 > In Table~\ref{tab:wz-effimatrix} we list the total selection efficiency for  different
236 > \W and \Z boson decay modes. It can be seen lepton candidates from \W and \Z
237 > boson decays are almost always are reconstructed with the correct flavor. As expected,
238 > there is a small contribution from $\W \to \tau \nu_\tau \to \ell \nu_\ell \nu_\tau$
239 > decays. However, this contribution is suppressed, mostly due to $p_T$ requirement
240 > on the third lepton, as leptons from $\tau$ decays are not as energetic as those from
241 > $\W \to \ell \nu$ processes.
242 >
243 > In Tables~\ref{tab:wz-matcheffi-Zee} and \ref{tab:wz-matcheffi-Zmumu} we
244 > display the fraction of reconstructed \WZ events with correctly-matched leptons.
245 > It can be seen that the lepton associated with the \W boson decay is correctly matched
246 > to the true Monte Carlo lepton from the \W boson decay in more than 90\% of
247 > the cases, even for events with several lepton candidates available to be associated
248 > to the \W boson decay. The choice to take the lepton candidate with the leading $p_T$ is,
249 > therefore, justified.

468 + \subsection{Complementary studies: can we use the neutrino?}
469 +
470 + In $\WZ \to  \ell^{\pm}\nu \ellell (\ell=e,\mu)$ events, the neutrino
471 + coming from the \W-boson decay leaves the detector with a significant
472 + amount of energy, which should reflect in a large transverse missing
473 + energy measurement. On the other side, no large MET is expected for
474 + the  most  important background categories, especially \Zjets,
475 + \Zbbbar, \ZZ and \Zgamma. This expectation is confirmed, as can be
476 + seen in Figure~\ref{fig:met}.
477 +
478 + Another variable sensitive to the presence of the neutrino
479 + is the W transverse mass $m_T^W$, obtained by combining the missing
480 + energy vector and the lepton associated to the \W-boson decay.
481 + The distribution of $m_T^W$ is shown in Figure~\ref{fig:mtw}.
482 + The signal yield could be extracted from that distribution.
483 + This requires however additional studies and it has not been
484 + done at this stage.
