In this Section we discuss the systematic uncertainty on the BG |
| 5 |
|
prediction. This prediction is assembled from the event |
| 6 |
|
counts in the peak region of the transverse mass distribution as |
| 14 |
|
region, |
| 15 |
|
for electrons and muons separately. |
| 16 |

The choice to normalizing to the peak region of $M_T$ has the |

> |
The choice to normalize to the peak region of $M_T$ has the |
| 18 |
|
advantage that some uncertainties, e.g., luminosity, cancel. |
| 19 |
|
It does however introduce complications because it couples |
| 20 |
|
some of the uncertainties in non-trivial ways. For example, |
| 25 |
|
the $t\bar{t} \to$ dilepton BG estimate because it changes the |
| 26 |
|
$t\bar{t}$ normalization to the peak region (because some of the |
| 27 |
|
events in the peak region are from rare processes). These effects |
| 28 |

are carefully accounted for. The contribution to the overall |

uncertainty from each BG source is tabulated in |

uncertainty from each background source is tabulated in |

Section~\ref{sec:bgunc-bottomline}. |

Here we discuss the uncertainties one-by-one and comment |
| 32 |
|
on their impact on the overall result, at least to first order. |
| 33 |

Second order effects, such as the one described, are also included. |

\subsection{Statistical uncertainties on the event counts in the $M_T$ |
| 36 |
|
peak regions} |
| 37 |
< |
These vary between XX and XX \%, depending on the signal region |
| 37 |
> |
These vary between 2\% and 20\%, depending on the signal region |
| 38 |
|
(different |
| 39 |
|
signal regions have different \met\ requirements, thus they also have |
| 40 |
< |
different $M_T$ regions used as control. |
| 40 |
> |
different $M_T$ regions used as control). |
| 41 |
|
Since |
| 42 |
< |
the major BG, eg, $t\bar{t}$ are normalized to the peak regions, this |
| 42 |
> |
the major backgrounds, eg, $t\bar{t}$ are normalized to the peak regions, this |
| 43 |
|
fractional uncertainty is pretty much carried through all the way to |
| 44 |
|
the end. There is also an uncertainty from the finite MC event counts |
| 45 |
|
in the $M_T$ peak regions. This is also included, but it is smaller. |
| 46 |
|
|
| 47 |
+ |
Normalizing to the $M_T$ peak has the distinct advantages that |
| 48 |
+ |
uncertainties on luminosity, cross-sections, trigger efficiency, |
| 49 |
+ |
lepton ID, cancel out. |
| 50 |
+ |
For the low statistics regions with high \met\ requirements, the |
| 51 |
+ |
price to pay in terms of event count is that statistical uncertainties start |
| 52 |
+ |
to become significant. In the future we may consider a different |
| 53 |
+ |
normalization startegy in the low statistics regions. |
| 54 |

\subsection{Uncertainty from the choice of $M_T$ peak region} |
| 56 |
– |
IN 7 TEV DATA WE HAD SOME SHAPE DIFFERENCES IN THE MTRANS REGION THAT |
| 57 |
– |
LED US TO CONSERVATIVELY INCLUDE THIS UNCERTAINTY. WE NEED TO LOOK |
| 58 |
– |
INTO THIS AGAIN |

\subsection{Uncertainty on the Wjets cross-section and the rare MC cross-sections} |
| 57 |
> |
This choice affects the scale factors of Table~\ref{tab:mtpeaksf}. |
| 58 |
> |
If the $M_T$ peak region is not well modelled, this would introduce an |
| 59 |
> |
uncertainty. |
| 60 |
> |
|
| 61 |
> |
We have tested this possibility by recalculating the post-veto scale factors for a different |
| 62 |
> |
choice |
| 63 |
> |
of $M_T$ peak region ($40 < M_T < 100$ GeV instead of the default |
| 64 |
> |
$50 < M_T < 80$ GeV). This is shown in Table~\ref{tab:mtpeaksf2}. |
| 65 |
> |
The two results for the scale factors are very compatible. |
| 66 |
> |
We do not take any systematic uncertainty for this possible effect. |

\subsubsection{Check of the impact of Signal Contamination} |
| 183 |
> |
|
| 184 |
> |
We examine the contribution of possible signal events in the \ttll\ |
| 185 |
> |
control regions (CR4 and CR5). It should be emphasized that these |
| 186 |
> |
regions are not used to apply data/MC SFs. They are used only to quantify |
| 187 |
> |
the level of data/MC agreement and assign a corresponding uncertainty. |
| 188 |
> |
As a result, if signal events were to populate these control regions |
| 189 |
> |
this would not lead to an increase in the predicted background. |
| 190 |
> |
|
| 191 |
> |
To illustrate how much signal is expected to populate these control |
| 192 |
> |
regions, we examine signal points near the edge of the analysis |
| 193 |
> |
sensitivity (m(stop) = 450 m($\chi^0$) = 0 for T2tt, m(stop) = 450 |
| 194 |
> |
m($\chi^0$) = 0, x=0.75 for T2bw) |
| 195 |
> |
Table~\ref{tab:signalcontamination} compares the expected signal |
| 196 |
> |
yields and the raw total MC background prediction in the control |
| 197 |
> |
regions with the \met\ and \mt\ requirements corresponding to SRB, SRC |
| 198 |
> |
and SRD (these are the signal regions that dominate the |
| 199 |
> |
sensitivity). The signal contamination is smaller than the uncertainty |
| 200 |
> |
on the dilepton background and smaller than the signal/background in |
| 201 |
> |
the signal regions. |
| 202 |
> |
Based on the fact that the CR4 and CR5 are not used to extract |
| 203 |
> |
data/MC scale factors and that we do not observe evidence for signal |
| 204 |
> |
contamination in these control regions (CR5, the control region with |
| 205 |
> |
larger statistical precision, actually shows a slight deficit of data w.r.t. MC), we |
| 206 |
> |
do not assign a correction for signal contamination in these control regions. |

\subsubsection{Check of the uncertainty on the \ttll\ Background} |
| 288 |
> |
|
| 289 |
> |
We check that the systematic uncertainty assigned to the \ttll\ background prediction |
| 290 |
> |
covers the uncertainty associated with |
| 291 |
> |
the theoretical modeling of the \ttbar\ production and decay |
| 292 |
> |
by comparing the background predictions obtained using |
| 293 |
|
alternative MC samples. It should be noted that the full analysis is |
| 294 |
|
performed with the alternative samples under consideration, |
| 295 |
|
including the derivation of the various data-to-MC scale factors. |
| 297 |
|
|
| 298 |
|
\begin{itemize} |
| 299 |
|
\item Top mass: The alternative values for the top mass differ |
| 300 |
< |
from the central value by $5~\GeV$: $m_{\mathrm{top}} = 178.5~\GeV$ and $m_{\mathrm{top}} |
| 300 |
> |
from the central value by $6~\GeV$: $m_{\mathrm{top}} = 178.5~\GeV$ and $m_{\mathrm{top}} |
| 301 |
|
= 166.5~\GeV$. |
| 302 |
|
\item Jet-parton matching scale: This corresponds to variations in the |
| 303 |
|
scale at which the Matrix Element partons from Madgraph are matched |
| 309 |
|
value for the scale used is $Q^2 = m_{\mathrm{top}}^2 + |
| 310 |
|
\sum_{\mathrm{jets}} \pt^2$. |
| 311 |
|
\item Alternative generators: Samples produced with different |
| 312 |
< |
generators include MC@NLO and Powheg (NLO generators) and |
| 119 |
< |
Pythia (LO). It may also be noted that MC@NLO uses Herwig6 for the |
| 120 |
< |
hadronisation, while POWHEG uses Pythia6. |
| 312 |
> |
generators, Powheg (our default) and Madgraph. |
| 313 |
|
\item Modeling of taus: The alternative sample does not include |
| 314 |
|
Tauola and is otherwise identical to the Powheg sample. |
| 315 |
|
This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible. |
| 316 |
|
\item The PDF uncertainty is estimated following the PDF4LHC |
| 317 |
< |
recommendations[CITE]. The events are reweighted using alternative |
| 317 |
> |
recommendations. The events are reweighted using alternative |
| 318 |
|
PDF sets for CT10 and MSTW2008 and the uncertainties for each are derived using the |
| 319 |
< |
alternative eigenvector variations and the ``master equation''. In |
| 320 |
< |
addition, the NNPDF2.1 set with 100 replicas. The central value is |
| 319 |
> |
alternative eigenvector variations and the ``master equation''. |
| 320 |
> |
The NNPDF2.1 set with 100 replicas is also used. The central value is |
| 321 |
|
determined from the mean and the uncertainty is derived from the |
| 322 |
|
$1\sigma$ range. The overall uncertainty is derived from the envelope of the |
| 323 |
|
alternative predictions and their uncertainties. |
| 324 |
|
This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible. |

In Fig.~\ref{fig:ttllsyst} we compare the alternate MC \ttll\ background predictions |
| 380 |

for regions A through E. We can make the following observations based |
| 381 |
> |
on this Figure. |
| 382 |
|
|
| 383 |
+ |
\begin{itemize} |
| 384 |
+ |
\item In the tighter signal regions we are running out of |
| 385 |
+ |
statistics. |
| 386 |
+ |
\item Within the limited statistics, there is no evidence that the |
| 387 |
+ |
situation changes as we go from signal region A to signal region E. |
| 388 |
+ |
%Therefore, we assess a systematic based on the relatively high |
| 389 |
+ |
%statistics |
| 390 |
+ |
%test in signal region A, and apply the same systematic uncertainty |
| 391 |
+ |
%to all other regions. |
| 392 |
+ |
\item In signal regions B and above, the uncertainties assigned in Section~\ref{sec:ttdilbkgunc} |
| 393 |
+ |
fully cover the alternative MC variations. |
| 394 |
+ |
\item In order to fully (as opposed as 1$\sigma$) cover the |
| 395 |
+ |
alternative MC variations in region A we would have to take a |
| 396 |
+ |
systematic |
| 397 |
+ |
uncertainty of $\approx 10\%$ instead of $5\%$. This would be driven by the |
| 398 |
+ |
scale up/scale down variations, see Table~\ref{tab:fracdiff}. |

However, we have two pieces of information indicating that the |
| 427 |
+ |
scale up/scale down variations are inconsistent with the data. |
| 428 |
+ |
These are described below. |
| 429 |
+ |
|
| 430 |
+ |
The first piece of information is that the jet multiplicity in the scale |
| 431 |
+ |
up/scale down sample is the most inconsistent with the data. This is shown |
| 432 |
+ |
in Table~\ref{tab:njetskfactors_met100}, where we tabulate the |
| 433 |
+ |
$K_3$ and $K_4$ factors of Section~\ref{sec:jetmultiplicity} for |
| 434 |
+ |
different \ttbar\ MC samples. The data/MC disagreement in the $N_{jets}$ |
| 435 |
+ |
distribution |
| 436 |
+ |
for the scale up/scale down samples is also shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets_scaleup} |
| 437 |
+ |
and~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets_scaledw}. This should be compared with the |
| 438 |
+ |
equivalent $N_{jets}$ plots for the default Powheg MC, see |
| 439 |
+ |
Fig.~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets}, which agrees much better with data. |

The second piece of information is that we have performed closure |
| 469 |

tests in CR5 using the alternative MC samples. These are exactly |
| 470 |

the same tests as the one performed in Section~\ref{sec:CR5} on the |
| 471 |

Powheg sample. As we argued previously, this is a very powerful |
| 472 |

test of the background calculation. |
| 473 |

The results of this test are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields}. |
| 474 |

Concentrating on the relatively high statistics CR5A region, we see |
| 475 |

for all \ttbar\ MC samples except scale up/scale down we obtain |
| 476 |

closure within 1$\sigma$. The scale up/scale down tests closes |
| 477 |

worse, only within 2$\sigma$. This again is evidence that the |

Based on the two observations above, we argue that the MC |
| 483 |

scale up/scale down variations are too extreme. We feel that |
| 484 |
> |
a reasonable choice would be to take one-half of the scale up/scale |
| 485 |

down variations in our MC. This factor of 1/2 would then bring |
| 486 |

the discrepancy in the closure test of |

Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields} for the scale up/scale down variations |
| 488 |

from about 2$\sigma$ to about 1$\sigma$. |

|

Then, going back to Table~\ref{tab:fracdiff}, and reducing the scale |
| 491 |

up/scale |
| 492 |

down variations by a factor 2, we can see that a systematic |

uncertainty |

of 5\% covers the range of reasonable variations from different MC |

models in SRA and SRB. |

%The alternative MC models indicate that a 6\% systematic uncertainty |

Note that this 5\% is also consistent with the level at which we are |

able to test the closure of the method with alternative samples in CR5 for the high statistics |

In this section we compare the performance of the isolated track veto in data and MC using tag-and-probe studies |
| 761 |
|
with samples of Z$\to$ee and Z$\to\mu\mu$. The purpose of these studies is to demonstrate that the efficiency |
| 762 |
|
to satisfy the isolated track veto requirements is well-reproduced in the MC, since if this were not the case |
| 763 |
< |
we would need to apply a data-to-MC scale factor in order to correctly predict the \ttll\ background. This study |

This study |
| 767 |
|
addresses possible data vs. MC discrepancies for the {\bf efficiency} to identify (and reject) events with a |
| 768 |
|
second {\bf genuine} lepton (e, $\mu$, or $\tau\to$1-prong). It does not address possible data vs. MC discrepancies |
| 769 |
|
in the fake rate for rejecting events without a second genuine lepton; this is handled separately in the top normalization |
| 770 |
|
procedure by scaling the \ttlj\ contribution to match the data in the \mt\ peak after applying the isolated track veto. |
| 771 |
+ |
|
| 772 |
|
Furthermore, we test the data and MC |
| 773 |
|
isolated track veto efficiencies for electrons and muons since we are using a Z tag-and-probe technique, but we do not |
| 774 |
|
directly test the performance for hadronic tracks from $\tau$ decays. The performance for hadronic $\tau$ decay products |
| 781 |
|
Second, hadronic tracks may undergo nuclear interactions and hence their tracks may not be reconstructed. |
| 782 |
|
As discussed above, independent studies show that the MC reproduces the hadronic tracking efficiency within 4\%, |
| 783 |
|
leading to a total background uncertainty of less than 0.5\% (after taking into account the fraction of the total background |
| 784 |
< |
due to hadronic $\tau$ decays with \pt\ $>$ 10 GeV tracks), and we hence regard this effect as neglgigible. |
| 784 |
> |
due to hadronic $\tau$ decays with \pt\ $>$ 10 GeV tracks), and we hence regard this effect as negligible. |
| 785 |

All events must contain a tag-probe pair (details below) with opposite-sign and satisfying the Z mass requirement 76--106 GeV. |
| 788 |
|
We compare the distributions of absolute track isolation for probe electrons/muons in data vs. MC. The contributions to |
| 789 |
|
this isolation sum are from ambient energy in the event from underlying event, pile-up and jet activitiy, and hence do |
| 838 |
|
The absolute track isolation distributions for passing probes are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:tnp}. In general we observe |
| 839 |
|
good agreement between data and MC. To be more quantitative, we compare the data vs. MC efficiencies to satisfy |
| 840 |
|
absolute track isolation requirements varying from $>$ 1 GeV to $>$ 5 GeV, as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:isotrk}. |

In the $\geq 0$ and $\geq 1$ jet bins where the efficiencies can be tested with statistical precision, the data and MC |

efficiencies agree within 6\%, and we apply this as a systematic uncertainty on the isolated track veto efficiency. |
| 843 |
|
For the higher jet multiplicity bins the statistical precision decreases, but we do not observe any evidence for |
| 844 |

a data vs. MC discrepancy in the isolated track veto efficiency. |

The contribution from each source to the total uncertainty on the background yield is given in Tables~\ref{tab:relativeuncertaintycomponents} and~\ref{tab:uncertaintycomponents} for the relative and absolute uncertainties, respectively. In the low-\met\ regions the dominant uncertainty comes from the top tail-to-peak ratio, $R_{top}$ (Section~\ref{sec:ttp}), while in the high-\met\ regions the \ttll\ systematic uncertainty dominates (Section~\ref{sec:ttdilbkgunc}). |
