|
4 |
< |
The methodology for determining the systematics on the background |
5 |
< |
predictions has not changed with respect to the nominal analysis. |
6 |
< |
Because the template method has not changed, the same |
7 |
< |
systematic uncertainty is assessed on this prediction (32\%). |
8 |
< |
The 50\% uncertainty on the WZ and ZZ background is also unchanged. |
9 |
< |
The systematic uncertainty in the OF background prediction based on |
10 |
< |
e$\mu$ events has changed, due to the different composition of this |
11 |
< |
sample after vetoing events containing b-tagged jets. |
12 |
< |
|
13 |
< |
As in the nominal analysis, we do not require the e$\mu$ events |
14 |
< |
to satisfy the dilepton mass requirement and apply a scaling factor K, |
15 |
< |
extracted from MC, to account for the fraction of e$\mu$ events |
16 |
< |
which satisfy the dilepton mass requirement. This procedure is used |
17 |
< |
in order to improve the statistical precision of the OF background estimate. |
18 |
< |
|
19 |
< |
For the selection used in the nominal analysis, |
20 |
< |
the e$\mu$ sample is completely dominated by $t\bar{t}$ |
21 |
< |
events, and we observe that K is statistically consistent with constant with |
22 |
< |
respect to the \MET\ requirement. However, in this analysis, the $t\bar{t}$ |
23 |
< |
background is strongly suppressed by the b-veto, and hence the non-$t\bar{t}$ |
24 |
< |
backgrounds (specifically, $Z\to\tau\tau$ and VV) become more relevant. |
25 |
< |
At low \MET, the $Z\to\tau\tau$ background is pronounced, while $t\bar{t}$ |
26 |
< |
and VV dominate at high \MET\ (see App.~\ref{app:kinemu}). |
27 |
< |
Therefore, the sample composition changes |
28 |
< |
as the \MET\ requirement is varied, and as a result K depends |
29 |
< |
on the \MET\ requirement. |
30 |
< |
|
31 |
< |
We thus measure K in MC separately for each |
32 |
< |
\MET\ requirement, as displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:kvmet} (left). |
33 |
< |
%The systematic uncertainty on K is determined separately for each \MET\ |
34 |
< |
%requirement by comparing the relative difference in K in data vs. MC. |
35 |
< |
The values of K used are the MC predictions |
36 |
< |
%and the total systematic uncertainty on the OF prediction |
37 |
< |
%as shown in |
38 |
< |
(Table \ref{fig:kvmettable}). |
39 |
< |
The contribution to the total OF prediction systematic uncertainty |
40 |
< |
from K is assessed from the ratio of K in data and MC, |
41 |
< |
shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:kvmet} (right). |
42 |
< |
The ratio is consistent with unity to roughly 17\%, |
43 |
< |
so we take this value as the systematic from K. |
44 |
< |
17\% added in quadrature with 7\% from |
45 |
< |
the electron to muon efficieny ratio |
46 |
< |
(as assessed in the inclusive analysis) |
47 |
< |
yields a total systematic of $\sim$18\% |
48 |
< |
which we round up to 20\%. |
49 |
< |
For \MET\ $>$ 150, there are no OF events in data inside the Z mass window |
50 |
< |
so we take a systematic based on the statistical uncertainty |
51 |
< |
of the MC prediction for K. |
52 |
< |
This value is 25\% for \MET\ $>$ 150 GeV and 60\% for \MET\ $>$ 200 GeV. |
53 |
< |
%Although we cannot check the value of K in data for \MET\ $>$ 150 |
54 |
< |
%because we find no OF events inside the Z mass window for this \MET\ |
55 |
< |
%cut, the overall OF yields with no dilepton mass requirement |
56 |
< |
%agree to roughly 20\% (9 data vs 7.0 $\pm$ 1.1 MC). |
57 |
< |
|
58 |
< |
|
59 |
< |
%Below Old |
60 |
< |
|
61 |
< |
%In reevaluating the systematics on the OF prediction, however, |
62 |
< |
%we observed a different behavior of K as a function of \MET\ |
63 |
< |
%as was seen in the inclusive analysis. |
64 |
< |
|
65 |
< |
%Recall that K is the ratio of the number of \emu\ events |
66 |
< |
%inside the Z window to the total number of \emu\ events. |
67 |
< |
%In the inclusive analysis, it is taken from \ttbar\ MC |
68 |
< |
%and used to scale the inclusive \emu\ yield in data. |
69 |
< |
%The yield scaled by K is then corrected for |
70 |
< |
%the $e$ vs $\mu$ efficiency difference to obtain the |
71 |
< |
%final OF prediction. |
72 |
< |
|
73 |
< |
%Based on the plot in figure \ref{fig:kvmet}, |
74 |
< |
%we choose to use a different |
75 |
< |
%K for each \MET\ cut and assess a systematic uncertainty |
76 |
< |
%on the OF prediction based on the difference between |
77 |
< |
%K in data and MC. |
78 |
< |
%The variation of K as a function of \MET\ is caused |
79 |
< |
%by a change in sample composition with increasing \MET. |
80 |
< |
%At \MET\ $<$ 60 GeV, the contribution of Z plus jets is |
81 |
< |
%not negligible (as it was in the inclusive analysis) |
82 |
< |
%because of the b veto. (See appendix \ref{app:kinemu}.) |
83 |
< |
%At higher \MET, \ttbar\ and diboson backgrounds dominate. |

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 |
7 |
> |
well as Monte Carlo |
8 |
> |
with a number of correction factors, as described previously. |
9 |
> |
The |
10 |
> |
final uncertainty on the prediction is built up from the uncertainties in these |
11 |
> |
individual |
12 |
> |
components. |
13 |
> |
The calculation is done for each signal |
14 |
> |
region, |
15 |
> |
for electrons and muons separately. |
16 |
> |
|
17 |
> |
The choice to normalizing 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, |
21 |
> |
the primary effect of an uncertainty on the rare MC cross-section |
22 |
> |
is to introduce an uncertainty in the rare MC background estimate |
23 |
> |
which comes entirely from MC. But this uncertainty also affects, |
24 |
> |
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 |
29 |
> |
uncertainty from each BG source is tabulated in |
30 |
> |
Section~\ref{sec:bgunc-bottomline}. |
31 |
> |
First, however, we discuss the uncertainties one-by-one and we 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. |
34 |
> |
|
35 |
> |
\subsection{Statistical uncertainties on the event counts in the $M_T$ |
36 |
> |
peak regions} |
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. |
41 |
> |
Since |
42 |
> |
the major BG, 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 statistical uncertainties starts |
52 |
> |
to become significant. In the future we may consider a different |
53 |
> |
normalization startegy in the low statistics regions. |
54 |
> |
|
55 |
> |
\subsection{Uncertainty from the choice of $M_T$ peak region} |
56 |
> |
|
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. |

\subsection{Uncertainty on the Wjets cross-section and the rare MC cross-sections} |
115 |
+ |
These are taken as 50\%, uncorrelated. |
116 |
+ |
The primary effect is to introduce a 50\% |
117 |
+ |
uncertainty |
118 |
+ |
on the $W +$ jets and rare BG |
119 |
+ |
background predictions, respectively. However they also |
120 |
+ |
have an effect on the other BGs via the $M_T$ peak normalization |
121 |
+ |
in a way that tends to reduce the uncertainty. This is easy |
122 |
+ |
to understand: if the $W$ cross-section is increased by 50\%, then |
123 |
+ |
the $W$ background goes up. But the number of $M_T$ peak events |
124 |
+ |
attributed to $t\bar{t}$ goes down, and since the $t\bar{t}$ BG is |
125 |
+ |
scaled to the number of $t\bar{t}$ events in the peak, the $t\bar{t}$ |
126 |
+ |
BG goes down. |
127 |
+ |
|
128 |
+ |
\subsection{Scale factors for the tail-to-peak ratios for lepton + |
129 |
+ |
jets top and W events} |
130 |
+ |
These tail-to-peak ratios are described in Section~\ref{sec:ttp}. |
131 |
+ |
They are studied in CR1 and CR2. The studies are described |
132 |
+ |
in Sections~\ref{sec:cr1} and~\ref{sec:cr2}), respectively, where |
133 |
+ |
we also give the uncertainty on the scale factors. See |
134 |
+ |
Tables~\ref{tab:cr1yields} |
135 |
+ |
and~\ref{tab:cr2yields}, scale factors $SFR_{wjet}$ and $SFR_{top})$. |
136 |
+ |
|
137 |
+ |
\subsection{Uncertainty on extra jet radiation for dilepton |
138 |
+ |
background} |
139 |
+ |
As discussed in Section~\ref{sec:jetmultiplicity}, the |
140 |
+ |
jet distribution in |
141 |
+ |
$t\bar{t} \to$ |
142 |
+ |
dilepton MC is rescaled by the factors $K_3$ and $K_4$ to make |
143 |
+ |
it agree with the data. The 3\% uncertainties on $K_3$ and $K_4$ |
144 |
+ |
comes from data/MC statistics. This |
145 |
+ |
result directly in a 3\% uncertainty on the dilepton BG, which is by far |
146 |
+ |
the most important one. |
147 |
+ |
|
148 |
+ |
\subsection{Uncertainty from MC statistics} |
149 |
+ |
This affects mostly the \ttll\ background estimate, which is taken |
150 |
+ |
from |
151 |
+ |
Monte Carlo with appropriate correction factors. This uncertainty |
152 |
+ |
is negligible in the low \met\ signal regions, and grows to about |
153 |
+ |
15\% in SRG. |
154 |
+ |
|
155 |
+ |
|
156 |
+ |
\subsection{Uncertainty on the \ttll\ Acceptance} |
157 |
+ |
|
158 |
+ |
The \ttbar\ background prediction is obtained from MC, with corrections |
159 |
+ |
derived from control samples in data. The uncertainty associated with |
160 |
+ |
the theoretical modeling of the \ttbar\ production and decay is |
161 |
+ |
estimated by comparing the background predictions obtained using |
162 |
+ |
alternative MC samples. It should be noted that the full analysis is |
163 |
+ |
performed with the alternative samples under consideration, |
164 |
+ |
including the derivation of the various data-to-MC scale factors. |
165 |
+ |
The variations considered are |
166 |
+ |
|
167 |
+ |
\begin{itemize} |
168 |
+ |
\item Top mass: The alternative values for the top mass differ |
169 |
+ |
from the central value by $5~\GeV$: $m_{\mathrm{top}} = 178.5~\GeV$ and $m_{\mathrm{top}} |
170 |
+ |
= 166.5~\GeV$. |
171 |
+ |
\item Jet-parton matching scale: This corresponds to variations in the |
172 |
+ |
scale at which the Matrix Element partons from Madgraph are matched |
173 |
+ |
to Parton Shower partons from Pythia. The nominal value is |
174 |
+ |
$x_q>20~\GeV$. The alternative values used are $x_q>10~\GeV$ and |
175 |
+ |
$x_q>40~\GeV$. |
176 |
+ |
\item Renormalization and factorization scale: The alternative samples |
177 |
+ |
correspond to variations in the scale $\times 2$ and $\times 0.5$. The nominal |
178 |
+ |
value for the scale used is $Q^2 = m_{\mathrm{top}}^2 + |
179 |
+ |
\sum_{\mathrm{jets}} \pt^2$. |
180 |
+ |
\item Alternative generators: Samples produced with different |
181 |
+ |
generators, Powheg (our default) and Madgraph. |
182 |
+ |
\item Modeling of taus: The alternative sample does not include |
183 |
+ |
Tauola and is otherwise identical to the Powheg sample. |
184 |
+ |
This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible. |
185 |
+ |
\item The PDF uncertainty is estimated following the PDF4LHC |
186 |
+ |
recommendations[CITE]. The events are reweighted using alternative |
187 |
+ |
PDF sets for CT10 and MSTW2008 and the uncertainties for each are derived using the |
188 |
+ |
alternative eigenvector variations and the ``master equation''. In |
189 |
+ |
addition, the NNPDF2.1 set with 100 replicas. The central value is |
190 |
+ |
determined from the mean and the uncertainty is derived from the |
191 |
+ |
$1\sigma$ range. The overall uncertainty is derived from the envelope of the |
192 |
+ |
alternative predictions and their uncertainties. |
193 |
+ |
This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible. |

These are described below. |

|
297 |

The first piece of information is that the jet multiplicity in the scale |

in Table~\ref{tab:njetskfactors_met100}, where we tabulate the |

The second piece of information is that we have performed closure |
336 |

tests in CR5 using the alternative MC samples. These are exactly |
337 |

the same tests as the one performed in Section~\ref{sec:CR5} on the |
338 |

Powheg sample. As we argued previously, this is a very powerful |
339 |

test of the background calculation. |
340 |
> |
The results of this test are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields}. |
341 |
> |
Concentrating on the relatively high statistics CR5A region, we see |
342 |
> |
for all \ttbar\ MC samples except scale up/scale down we obtain |
343 |
> |
closure within 1$\sigma$. The scale up/scale down tests closes |
344 |

worse, only within 2$\sigma$. This again is evidence that the |
345 |

scale up/scale down variations are in disagreement with the data. |

Based on the two observations above, we argue that the MC |
350 |
> |
scale up/scale down variations are too extreme. We feel that |
351 |
> |
a reasonable choice would be to take one-half of the scale up/scale |
352 |
> |
down variations in our MC. This factor of 1/2 would then bring |
353 |

the discrepancy in the closure test of |
354 |
> |
Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields} for the scale up/scale down variations |
355 |
> |
from about 2$\sigma$ to about 1$\sigma$. |
356 |
> |
|
357 |
> |
Then, going back to Table~\ref{tab:fracdiff}, and reducing the scale |
358 |
> |
up/scale |
359 |
> |
down variations by a factor 2, we can see that a systematic |
360 |
> |
uncertainty |
361 |
> |
of 6\% would fully cover all of the variations from different MC |
362 |
> |
samples in SRA and SRB. |
363 |
> |
{\bf Thus, we take a 6\% systematic uncertainty, constant as a |
364 |
> |
function of signal region, as the systematic due to alternative MC |
365 |
> |
models.}. |
366 |
> |
Note that this 6\% is also consistent with the level at which we are |
367 |

able |
368 |

to test the closure of the method in CR5 for the high statistics |

470 |

% |
471 |

%As in the nominal analysis, we do not require the e$\mu$ events |

%to satisfy the dilepton mass requirement and apply a scaling factor K, |

% |
477 |

%For the selection used in the nominal analysis, |

%the e$\mu$ sample is completely dominated by $t\bar{t}$ |
479 |

%respect to the \MET\ requirement. However, in this analysis, the $t\bar{t}$ |
481 |

%background is strongly suppressed by the b-veto, and hence the non-$t\bar{t}$ |
482 |
> |
%backgrounds (specifically, $Z\to\tau\tau$ and VV) become more relevant. |
483 |

%At low \MET, the $Z\to\tau\tau$ background is pronounced, while $t\bar{t}$ |
484 |

%and VV dominate at high \MET\ (see App.~\ref{app:kinemu}). |
485 |
> |
%Therefore, the sample composition changes |
486 |

%as the \MET\ requirement is varied, and as a result K depends |
487 |

%on the \MET\ requirement. |
488 |

% |

\subsubsection{Isolated Track Veto: Tag and Probe Studies} |
624 |
+ |
\label{sec:trkveto} |
625 |
+ |
|
626 |
+ |
|
627 |
+ |
In this section we compare the performance of the isolated track veto in data and MC using tag-and-probe studies |
628 |
+ |
with samples of Z$\to$ee and Z$\to\mu\mu$. The purpose of these studies is to demonstrate that the efficiency |
629 |
+ |
to satisfy the isolated track veto requirements is well-reproduced in the MC, since if this were not the case |
630 |
+ |
we would need to apply a data-to-MC scale factor in order to correctly |
631 |
+ |
predict the \ttll\ background. |
632 |
+ |
|
633 |
+ |
This study |
634 |
+ |
addresses possible data vs. MC discrepancies for the {\bf efficiency} to identify (and reject) events with a |
635 |
+ |
second {\bf genuine} lepton (e, $\mu$, or $\tau\to$1-prong). It does not address possible data vs. MC discrepancies |
636 |
+ |
in the fake rate for rejecting events without a second genuine lepton; this is handled separately in the top normalization |
637 |
+ |
procedure by scaling the \ttlj\ contribution to match the data in the \mt\ peak after applying the isolated track veto. |
638 |
+ |
|
639 |
+ |
Furthermore, we test the data and MC |
640 |
+ |
isolated track veto efficiencies for electrons and muons since we are using a Z tag-and-probe technique, but we do not |
641 |
+ |
directly test the performance for hadronic tracks from $\tau$ decays. The performance for hadronic $\tau$ decay products |
642 |
+ |
may differ from that of electrons and muons for two reasons. First, the $\tau$ may decay to a hadronic track plus one |
643 |
+ |
or two $\pi^0$'s, which may decay to $\gamma\gamma$ followed by a photon conversion. As shown in Figure~\ref{fig:absiso}, |
644 |
+ |
the isolation distribution for charged tracks from $\tau$ decays that are not produced in association with $\pi^0$s are |
645 |
+ |
consistent with that from $\E$s and $\M$s. Since events from single prong $\tau$ decays produced in association with |
646 |
+ |
$\pi^0$s comprise a small fraction of the total sample, and since the kinematics of $\tau$, $\pi^0$ and $\gamma\to e^+e^-$ |
647 |
+ |
decays are well-understood, we currently demonstrate that the isolation is well-reproduced for electrons and muons only. |
648 |
+ |
Second, hadronic tracks may undergo nuclear interactions and hence their tracks may not be reconstructed. |
649 |
+ |
As discussed above, independent studies show that the MC reproduces the hadronic tracking efficiency within 4\%, |
650 |
+ |
leading to a total background uncertainty of less than 0.5\% (after taking into account the fraction of the total background |
651 |
+ |
due to hadronic $\tau$ decays with \pt\ $>$ 10 GeV tracks), and we hence regard this effect as neglgigible. |
652 |
+ |
|
653 |
+ |
The tag-and-probe studies are performed in the full data sample, and compared with the DYJets madgraph sample. |
654 |
+ |
All events must contain a tag-probe pair (details below) with opposite-sign and satisfying the Z mass requirement 76--106 GeV. |
655 |
+ |
We compare the distributions of absolute track isolation for probe electrons/muons in data vs. MC. The contributions to |
656 |
+ |
this isolation sum are from ambient energy in the event from underlying event, pile-up and jet activitiy, and hence do |
657 |
+ |
not depend on the \pt\ of the probe lepton. We therefore restrict the probe \pt\ to be $>$ 30 GeV in order to suppress |
658 |
+ |
fake backgrounds with steeply-falling \pt\ spectra. To suppress non-Z backgrounds (in particular \ttbar) we require |
659 |
+ |
\met\ $<$ 30 GeV and 0 b-tagged events. |
660 |
+ |
The specific criteria for tags and probes for electrons and muons are: |
661 |
+ |
|
662 |
+ |
%We study the isolated track veto efficiency in bins of \njets. |
663 |
+ |
%We are interested in events with at least 4 jets to emulate the hadronic activity in our signal sample. However since |
664 |
+ |
%there are limited statistics for Z + $\geq$4 jet events, we study the isolated track performance in events with |

The absolute track isolation distributions for passing probes are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:tnp}. In general we observe |
706 |
+ |
good agreement between data and MC. To be more quantitative, we compare the data vs. MC efficiencies to satisfy |
707 |
+ |
absolute track isolation requirements varying from $>$ 1 GeV to $>$ 5 GeV, as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:isotrk}. |
708 |
+ |
In the $\geq$0 and $\geq$1 jet bins where the efficiencies can be tested with statistical precision, the data and MC |
709 |
+ |
efficiencies agree within 6\%, and we apply this as a systematic uncertainty on the isolated track veto efficiency. |
710 |
+ |
For the higher jet multiplicity bins the statistical precision decreases, but we do not observe any evidence for |
711 |
+ |
a data vs. MC discrepancy in the isolated track veto efficiency. |
712 |
+ |
|
713 |
+ |
|
714 |
+ |
%This is because our analysis requirement is relative track isolation $<$ 0.1, and m |
715 |
+ |
%This requirement is chosen because most of the tracks rejected by the isolated |
716 |
+ |
%track veto have a \pt\ near the 10 GeV threshold, and our analysis requirement is relative track isolation $<$ 1 GeV. |

%In detail, the procedure to correct the dilepton background is: |
877 |
+ |
|
878 |
+ |
%\begin{itemize} |
879 |
+ |
%\item Using tag-and-probe studies, we plot the distribution of {\bf absolute} track isolation for identified probe electrons |
880 |
+ |
%and muons {\bf TODO: need to compare the e vs. $\mu$ track iso distributions, they might differ due to e$\to$e$\gamma$}. |
881 |
+ |
%\item We verify that the distribution of absolute track isolation does not depend on the \pt\ of the probe lepton. |
882 |
+ |
%This is due to the fact that this isolation is from ambient PU and jet activity in the event, which is uncorrelated with |
883 |
+ |
%the lepton \pt {\bf TODO: verify this in data and MC.}. |
884 |
+ |
%\item Our requirement is {\bf relative} track isolation $<$ 0.1. For a given \ttll\ MC event, we determine the \pt of the 2nd |
885 |
+ |
%lepton and translate this to find the corresponding requirement on the {\bf absolute} track isolation, which is simply $0.1\times$\pt. |
886 |
+ |
%\item We measure the efficiency to satisfy this requirement in data and MC, and define a scale-factor $SF_{\epsilon(trk)}$ which |
887 |
+ |
%is the ratio of the data-to-MC efficiencies. This scale-factor is applied to the \ttll\ MC event. |
888 |
+ |
%\item {\bf THING 2 we are unsure about: we can measure this SF for electrons and for muons, but we can't measure it for hadronic |
889 |
+ |
%tracks from $\tau$ decays. Verena has showed that the absolute track isolation distribution in hadronic $\tau$ tracks is harder due |
890 |
+ |
%to $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ with $\gamma\to e^+e^-$.} |
891 |
+ |

%{\bf fix me: What you have written in the next paragraph does not |
896 |
+ |
%explain how $\epsilon_{fake}$ is measured. |
897 |
+ |
%Why not measure $\epsilon_{fake}$ in the b-veto region?} |
898 |
+ |
|
899 |
+ |
%A measurement of the $\epsilon_{fake}$ in data is non-trivial. However, it is |
900 |
+ |
%possible to correct for differences in the $\epsilon_{fake}$ between data and MC by |
901 |
+ |
%applying an additional scale factor for the single lepton background |
902 |
+ |
%alone, using the sample in the \mt\ peak region. This scale factor is determined after applying the isolated track |
903 |
+ |
%veto and after subtracting the \ttll\ component, corrected for the |
904 |
+ |
%isolation efficiency derived previously. |
905 |
+ |
%As shown in Figure~\ref{fig:vetoeffcomp}, the efficiency for selecting an |
906 |
+ |
%isolated track in single lepton events is independent of \mt\, so the use of |
907 |
+ |
%an overall scale factor is justified to estimate the contribution in |
908 |
+ |
%the \mt\ tail. |
