Dilepton \ttbar\ events have 2 jets from the top decays, so additional
|
| 11 |
jets from radiation or higher order contributions are required to
|
| 12 |
enter the signal sample. The modeling of addtional jets in \ttbar\
|
| 13 |
events is checked in a \ttll\ control sample,
|
| 14 |
selected by requiring
|
| 15 |
\begin{itemize}
|
| 16 |
\item exactly 2 selected electrons or muons with \pt $>$ 20 GeV
|
| 17 |
\item \met\ $>$ 100 GeV
|
| 18 |
\item $\geq1$ b-tagged jet
|
| 19 |
\item Z-veto ($|m_{\ell\ell} - 91| > 15$ GeV)
|
| 20 |
\end{itemize}
|
| 21 |
Figure~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets} shows a comparison of the jet
|
| 22 |
multiplicity distribution in data and MC for this two-lepton control
|
| 23 |
sample. After requiring at least 1 b-tagged jet, most of the
|
| 24 |
events have 2 jets, as expected from the dominant process \ttll. There is also a
|
| 25 |
significant fraction of events with additional jets.
|
| 26 |
The 3-jet sample is mainly comprised of \ttbar\ events with 1 additional
|
| 27 |
emission and similarly the $\ge4$-jet sample contains primarily
|
| 28 |
$\ttbar+\ge2$ jet events.
|
| 29 |
%Even though the primary \ttbar\
|
| 30 |
%Madgraph sample used includes up to 3 additional partons at the Matrix
|
| 31 |
%Element level, which are intended to describe additional hard jets,
|
| 32 |
%Figure~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets} shows a slight mis-modeling of the
|
| 33 |
%additional jets.

It should be noted that in the case of \ttll\ events
|
| 49 |
with a single reconstructed lepton, the other lepton may be
|
| 50 |
mis-reconstructed as a jet. For example, a hadronic tau may be
|
| 51 |
mis-identified as a jet (since no $\tau$ identification is used).
|
| 52 |
In this case only 1 additional jet from radiation may suffice for
|
| 53 |
a \ttll\ event to enter the signal sample. As a result, both the
|
| 54 |
samples with $\ttbar+1$ jet and $\ttbar+\ge2$ jets are relevant for
|
| 55 |
estimating the top dilepton background in the signal region.
|
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
%In this section we discuss a correction to $ N_{2 lep}^{MC} $ in Equation XXX
|
| 58 |
%due to differences in the modelling of the jet multiplicity in data versus MC.
|
| 59 |
%The same correction also enters $ N_{peak}^{MC}$ in Equation XXX to the extend that the
|
| 60 |
%dilepton contributions to $ N_{peak}^{MC}$ gets corrected.
|
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
%The dilepton control sample is defined by the following requirements:
|
| 63 |
%\begin{itemize}
|
| 64 |
%\item Exactly 2 selected electrons or muons with \pt $>$ 20 GeV
|
| 65 |
%\item \met\ $>$ 50 GeV
|
| 66 |
%\item $\geq1$ b-tagged jet
|
| 67 |
%\end{itemize}
|
| 68 |
%
|
| 69 |
%This sample is dominated by \ttll. The distribution of \njets\ for data and MC passing this selection is displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:dilepton_njets}.
|
| 70 |
%We use this distribution to derive scale factors which reweight the \ttll\ MC \njets\ distribution to match the data. We define the following
|
| 71 |
%quantities
|
| 72 |
%
|
| 73 |
%\begin{itemize}
|
| 74 |
%\item $N_{2}=$ data yield minus non-dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\leq$ 2
|
| 75 |
%\item $N_{3}=$ data yield minus non-dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ = 3
|
| 76 |
%\item $N_{4}=$ data yield minus non-dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\geq$ 4
|
| 77 |
%\item $M_{2}=$ dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\leq$ 2
|
| 78 |
%\item $M_{3}=$ dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ = 3
|
| 79 |
%\item $M_{4}=$ dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\geq$ 4
|
| 80 |
%\end{itemize}
|
| 81 |
%
|
| 82 |
%We use these yields to define 3 scale factors, which quantify the data/MC ratio in the 3 \njets\ bins:
|
| 83 |
%
|
| 84 |
%\begin{itemize}
|
| 85 |
%\item $SF_2 = N_2 / M_2$
|
| 86 |
%\item $SF_3 = N_3 / M_3$
|
| 87 |
%\item $SF_4 = N_4 / M_4$
|
| 88 |
%\end{itemize}
|
| 89 |
%
|
| 90 |
%And finally, we define the scale factors $K_3$ and $K_4$:
|
| 91 |
%
|
| 92 |
%\begin{itemize}
|
| 93 |
%\item $K_3 = SF_3 / SF_2$
|
| 94 |
%\item $K_4 = SF_4 / SF_2$
|
| 95 |
%\end{itemize}
|
| 96 |
%
|
| 97 |
%The scale factor $K_3$ is extracted from dilepton \ttbar\ events with \njets = 3, which have exactly 1 ISR jet.
|
| 98 |
%The scale factor $K_4$ is extracted from dilepton \ttbar\ events with \njets $\geq$ 4, which have at least 2 ISR jets.
|
| 99 |
%Both of these scale factors are needed since dilepton \ttbar\ events which fall in our signal region (including
|
| 100 |
%the \njets $\geq$ 4 requirement) may require exactly 1 ISR jet, in the case that the second lepton is reconstructed
|
| 101 |
%as a jet, or at least 2 ISR jets, in the case that the second lepton is not reconstructed as a jet. These scale
|
| 102 |
%factors are applied to the dilepton \ttbar\ MC only. For a given MC event, we determine whether to use $K_3$ or $K_4$
|
| 103 |
%by counting the number of reconstructed jets in the event ($N_{\rm{jets}}^R$) , and subtracting off any reconstructed
|
| 104 |
%jet which is matched to the second lepton at generator level ($N_{\rm{jets}}^\ell$); $N_{\rm{jets}}^{\rm{cor}} = N_{\rm{jets}}^R - N_{\rm{jets}}^\ell$.
|
| 105 |
%For events with $N_{\rm{jets}}^{\rm{cor}}=3$ the factor $K_3$ is applied, while for events with $N_{\rm{jets}}^{\rm{cor}}\geq4$ the factor $K_4$ is applied.
|
| 106 |
%For all subsequent steps, the scale factors $K_3$ and $K_4$ have been
|
| 107 |
%applied to the \ttll\ MC.
|
| 108 |
|
| 109 |
|
| 110 |
Table~\ref{tab:njetskfactors} shows scale factors ($K_3$ and $K_4$)
|
| 111 |
used to correct the
|
| 112 |
fraction of events with additional jets in MC to the observed fraction
|
| 113 |
in data. These scale factors are calculated from Fig.~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets}
|
| 114 |
as follows:
|
| 115 |
\begin{itemize}
|
| 116 |
\item $N_{2}=$ data yield minus non-dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\leq$ 2
|
| 117 |
\item $N_{3}=$ data yield minus non-dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ = 3
|
| 118 |
\item $N_{4}=$ data yield minus non-dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\geq$ 4
|
| 119 |
\item $M_{2}=$ dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\leq$ 2
|
| 120 |
\item $M_{3}=$ dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ = 3
|
| 121 |
\item $M_{4}=$ dilepton \ttbar\ MC yield for \njets\ $\geq$ 4
|
| 122 |
\end{itemize}
|
| 123 |
\noindent then
|
| 124 |
\begin{itemize}
|
| 125 |
\item $SF_2 = N_2 / M_2$
|
| 126 |
\item $SF_3 = N_3 / M_3$
|
| 127 |
\item $SF_4 = N_4 / M_4$
|
| 128 |
\item $K_3 = SF_3 / SF_2$
|
| 129 |
\item $K_4 = SF_4 / SF_2$
|
| 130 |
\end{itemize}
|
| 131 |
\noindent This insures that $K_3 M_3/(M_2 + K_3 M_3 + K_4 M_4) = N_3 /
|
| 132 |
(N_2+N_3+N_4)$ and similarly for the $\geq 4$ jet bin.
|
| 133 |
|
| 134 |
|
| 135 |
The factors $K_3$ and $K_4$ are applied to the \ttll\ MC throughout the
|
| 136 |
entire analysis, i.e.
|
| 137 |
whenever \ttll\ MC is used to estimate or subtract
|
| 138 |
a yield or distribution.
|
| 139 |
%
|
| 140 |
In order to do so, it is first necessary to count the number of
|
| 141 |
additional jets from radiation and exclude leptons mis-identified as
|
| 142 |
jets. A jet is considered a mis-identified lepton if it is matched to a
|
| 143 |
generator-level second lepton with sufficient energy to satisfy the jet
|
| 144 |
\pt\ requirement ($\pt>30~\GeV$). Then \ttll\ events that need two
|
| 145 |
radiation jets to enter our selection are scaled by $K_4$,
|
| 146 |
while those that only need one radiation jet are scaled by $K_3$.

\subsubsection{Validation of the ``Physics'' Modelling of the \ttdl\
|
| 173 |
MC in CR4}
|
| 174 |
\label{sec:CR4-valid}
|
| 175 |

[THE TEXT IN THIS SUBSECTION IS ESSENTIALLY COMPLETE]
|

|
| 178 |
As mentioned above, $t\bar{t} \to $ dileptons where one of the leptons
|
| 179 |
is somehow lost constitutes the main background.
|
| 180 |
The object of this test is to validate the $M_T$ distribution of this
|
| 181 |
background by looking at the $M_T$ distribution of well identified
|
| 182 |
dilepton events.
|
| 183 |
We construct a transverse mass variable from the leading lepton and
|
| 184 |
the \met. We distinguish between events with leading electrons and
|
| 185 |
leading muons.
|
| 186 |
|
| 187 |
The $t\bar{t}$ MC is corrected using the $K_3$ and $K_4$ factors
|
| 188 |
from Section~\ref{sec:jetmultiplicity}. It is also normalized to the
|
| 189 |
total data yield separately for the \met\ requirements of signal
|
| 190 |
regions A, B, C, and D. These normalization factors are listed
|
| 191 |
in Table~\ref{tab:cr4mtsf} and are close to unity.
|
| 192 |
|
| 193 |
The underlying \met\ and $M_T$ distributions are shown in
|
| 194 |
Figures~\ref{fig:cr4met} and~\ref{fig:cr4mtrest}. The data-MC agreement
|
| 195 |
is quite good. Quantitatively, this is also shown in Table~\ref{tab:cr4yields}.
