|
|
| 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 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, |
| 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 background source is tabulated in |
| 30 |
> |
Section~\ref{sec:bgunc-bottomline}. |
| 31 |
> |
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. |
| 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 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 |
> |
|
| 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{Tail-to-peak ratios for lepton + |
| 129 |
+ |
jets top and W events} |
| 130 |
+ |
The tail-to-peak ratios $R_{top}$ and $R_{wjet}$ are described in Section~\ref{sec:ttp}. |
| 131 |
+ |
The data/MC scale factors are studied in CR1 and CR2 (Sections~\ref{sec:cr1} and~\ref{sec:cr2}). |
| 132 |
+ |
Only the scale factor for \wjets, $SFR_{wjet}$, is used, and its uncertainty is given in Table~\ref{tab:cr1yields}). This uncertainty affects both $R_{wjet}$ and $R_{top}$. |
| 133 |
+ |
The additional systematic uncertainty on $R_{top}$ from the variation between optimistic and pessimistic scenarios is given in Section~\ref{sec:ttp}. |
| 134 |
+ |
|
| 135 |
+ |
|
| 136 |
+ |
\subsection{Uncertainty on extra jet radiation for dilepton |
| 137 |
+ |
background} |
| 138 |
+ |
As discussed in Section~\ref{sec:jetmultiplicity}, the |
| 139 |
+ |
jet distribution in |
| 140 |
+ |
$t\bar{t} \to$ |
| 141 |
+ |
dilepton MC is rescaled by the factors $K_3$ and $K_4$ to make |
| 142 |
+ |
it agree with the data. The 3\% uncertainties on $K_3$ and $K_4$ |
| 143 |
+ |
comes from data/MC statistics. This |
| 144 |
+ |
results directly in a 3\% uncertainty on the dilepton background, which is by far |
| 145 |
+ |
the most important one. |
| 146 |
+ |
|
| 147 |
+ |
\subsection{Uncertainty from MC statistics} |
| 148 |
+ |
This affects mostly the \ttll\ background estimate, which is taken |
| 149 |
+ |
from |
| 150 |
+ |
Monte Carlo with appropriate correction factors. This uncertainty |
| 151 |
+ |
is negligible in the low \met\ signal regions, and grows to about |
| 152 |
+ |
15\% in SRG. |
| 153 |
+ |
|
| 154 |
+ |
|
| 155 |
+ |
\subsection{Uncertainty on the \ttll\ Background} |
| 156 |
+ |
\label{sec:ttdilbkgunc} |
| 157 |
+ |
The \ttbar\ background prediction is obtained from MC, with corrections |
| 158 |
+ |
derived from control samples in data. The uncertainty associated with |
| 159 |
+ |
the \ttbar\ background is derived from the level of closure of the |
| 160 |
+ |
background prediction in CR4 (Table~\ref{tab:cr4yields}) and |
| 161 |
+ |
CR5 (Table~\ref{tab:cr5yields}). The results from these control region |
| 162 |
+ |
checks are shown in Figure~\ref{fig:ttdlunc}. The uncertainties assigned |
| 163 |
+ |
to the \ttdl\ background prediction based on these tests are |
| 164 |
+ |
5\% (SRA), 10\% (SRB), 15\% (SRC), 25\% (SRD), 40\% (SRE-G). |

\subsubsection{Check of the uncertainty on the \ttll\ Background} |
| 181 |
+ |
|
| 182 |
+ |
We check that the systematic uncertainty assigned to the \ttll\ background prediction |
| 183 |
+ |
covers the uncertainty associated with |
| 184 |
+ |
the theoretical modeling of the \ttbar\ production and decay |
| 185 |
+ |
by comparing the background predictions obtained using |
| 186 |
+ |
alternative MC samples. It should be noted that the full analysis is |
| 187 |
+ |
performed with the alternative samples under consideration, |
| 188 |
+ |
including the derivation of the various data-to-MC scale factors. |
| 189 |
+ |
The variations considered are |
| 190 |
+ |
|
| 191 |
+ |
\begin{itemize} |
| 192 |
+ |
\item Top mass: The alternative values for the top mass differ |
| 193 |
+ |
from the central value by $6~\GeV$: $m_{\mathrm{top}} = 178.5~\GeV$ and $m_{\mathrm{top}} |
| 194 |
+ |
= 166.5~\GeV$. |
| 195 |
+ |
\item Jet-parton matching scale: This corresponds to variations in the |
| 196 |
+ |
scale at which the Matrix Element partons from Madgraph are matched |
| 197 |
+ |
to Parton Shower partons from Pythia. The nominal value is |

\item Renormalization and factorization scale: The alternative samples |
| 201 |

correspond to variations in the scale $\times 2$ and $\times 0.5$. The nominal |
| 202 |

value for the scale used is $Q^2 = m_{\mathrm{top}}^2 + |
| 203 |
+ |
\sum_{\mathrm{jets}} \pt^2$. |
| 204 |
+ |
\item Alternative generators: Samples produced with different |
| 205 |
+ |
generators, Powheg (our default) and Madgraph. |
| 206 |
+ |
\item Modeling of taus: The alternative sample does not include |
| 207 |
+ |
Tauola and is otherwise identical to the Powheg sample. |
| 208 |
+ |
This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible. |
| 209 |
+ |
\item The PDF uncertainty is estimated following the PDF4LHC |
| 210 |
+ |
recommendations. The events are reweighted using alternative |
| 211 |
+ |
PDF sets for CT10 and MSTW2008 and the uncertainties for each are derived using the |
| 212 |
+ |
alternative eigenvector variations and the ``master equation''. |
| 213 |
+ |
The NNPDF2.1 set with 100 replicas is also used. The central value is |
| 214 |
+ |
determined from the mean and the uncertainty is derived from the |
| 215 |
+ |
$1\sigma$ range. The overall uncertainty is derived from the envelope of the |
| 216 |
+ |
alternative predictions and their uncertainties. |
| 217 |
+ |
This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible. |

scale up/scale down variations are inconsistent with the data. |

These are described below. |
| 322 |
> |
|
| 323 |
> |
The first piece of information is that the jet multiplicity in the scale |

up/scale down sample is the most inconsistent with the data. This is shown |
| 325 |

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

for the scale up/scale down samples is also shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets_scaleup} |

Fig.~\ref{fig:dileptonnjets}, which agrees much better with data. |

|

+ |
The second piece of information is that we have performed closure |
| 362 |
+ |
tests in CR5 using the alternative MC samples. These are exactly |
| 363 |
+ |
the same tests as the one performed in Section~\ref{sec:CR5} on the |
| 364 |
+ |
Powheg sample. As we argued previously, this is a very powerful |
| 365 |
+ |
test of the background calculation. |
| 366 |
+ |
The results of this test are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields}. |
| 367 |
+ |
Concentrating on the relatively high statistics CR5A region, we see |
| 368 |
+ |
for all \ttbar\ MC samples except scale up/scale down we obtain |
| 369 |
+ |
closure within 1$\sigma$. The scale up/scale down tests closes |
| 370 |
+ |
worse, only within 2$\sigma$. This again is evidence that the |
| 371 |
+ |
scale up/scale down variations are in disagreement with the data. |
| 372 |
+ |
|
| 373 |
+ |
\input{hugeCR5Table.tex} |
| 374 |
+ |
|
| 375 |
+ |
Based on the two observations above, we argue that the MC |
| 376 |
+ |
scale up/scale down variations are too extreme. We feel that |
| 377 |
+ |
a reasonable choice would be to take one-half of the scale up/scale |
| 378 |
+ |
down variations in our MC. This factor of 1/2 would then bring |
| 379 |
+ |
the discrepancy in the closure test of |
| 380 |
+ |
Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields} for the scale up/scale down variations |
| 381 |
+ |
from about 2$\sigma$ to about 1$\sigma$. |
| 382 |
+ |
|
| 383 |
+ |
Then, going back to Table~\ref{tab:fracdiff}, and reducing the scale |
| 384 |
+ |
up/scale |
| 385 |
+ |
down variations by a factor 2, we can see that a systematic |
| 386 |
+ |
uncertainty |
| 387 |
+ |
of 5\% covers the range of reasonable variations from different MC |
| 388 |
+ |
models in SRA and SRB. |
| 389 |
+ |
%The alternative MC models indicate that a 6\% systematic uncertainty |
| 390 |
+ |
%covers the range of reasonable variations. |
| 391 |
+ |
Note that this 5\% is also consistent with the level at which we are |
| 392 |
+ |
able to test the closure of the method with alternative samples in CR5 for the high statistics |
| 393 |
+ |
regions (Table~\ref{tab:hugecr5yields}). |
| 394 |
+ |
The range of reasonable variations obtained with the alternative |
| 395 |
+ |
samples are consistent with the uncertainties assigned for |
| 396 |
+ |
the \ttll\ background based on the closure of the background |
| 397 |
+ |
predictions and data in CR4 and CR5. |

%The methodology for determining the systematics on the background |
| 489 |

%predictions has not changed with respect to the nominal analysis. |
| 490 |
+ |
%Because the template method has not changed, the same |
| 491 |
+ |
%systematic uncertainty is assessed on this prediction (32\%). |
| 492 |
+ |
%The 50\% uncertainty on the WZ and ZZ background is also unchanged. |
| 493 |
+ |
%The systematic uncertainty in the OF background prediction based on |
| 494 |
+ |
%e$\mu$ events has changed, due to the different composition of this |
| 495 |
+ |
%sample after vetoing events containing b-tagged jets. |
| 496 |
+ |
% |
| 497 |
+ |
%As in the nominal analysis, we do not require the e$\mu$ events |
| 498 |
+ |
%to satisfy the dilepton mass requirement and apply a scaling factor K, |
| 499 |
+ |
%extracted from MC, to account for the fraction of e$\mu$ events |
| 500 |
+ |
%which satisfy the dilepton mass requirement. This procedure is used |
| 501 |
+ |
%in order to improve the statistical precision of the OF background estimate. |
| 502 |
+ |
% |
| 503 |
+ |
%For the selection used in the nominal analysis, |
| 504 |
+ |
%the e$\mu$ sample is completely dominated by $t\bar{t}$ |
| 505 |
+ |
%events, and we observe that K is statistically consistent with constant with |
| 506 |
+ |
%respect to the \MET\ requirement. However, in this analysis, the $t\bar{t}$ |
| 507 |
+ |
%background is strongly suppressed by the b-veto, and hence the non-$t\bar{t}$ |
| 508 |
+ |
%backgrounds (specifically, $Z\to\tau\tau$ and VV) become more relevant. |
| 509 |
+ |
%At low \MET, the $Z\to\tau\tau$ background is pronounced, while $t\bar{t}$ |
| 510 |
+ |
%and VV dominate at high \MET\ (see App.~\ref{app:kinemu}). |
| 511 |
+ |
%Therefore, the sample composition changes |
| 512 |
+ |
%as the \MET\ requirement is varied, and as a result K depends |
| 513 |
+ |
%on the \MET\ requirement. |
| 514 |
+ |
% |
| 515 |
+ |
%We thus measure K in MC separately for each |
| 516 |
+ |
%\MET\ requirement, as displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:kvmet} (left). |
| 517 |
+ |
%%The systematic uncertainty on K is determined separately for each \MET\ |
| 518 |

%%requirement by comparing the relative difference in K in data vs. MC. |
| 519 |

%The values of K used are the MC predictions |

%%and the total systematic uncertainty on the OF prediction |
| 521 |

%%as shown in |
| 522 |
+ |
%(Table \ref{fig:kvmettable}). |
| 523 |
+ |
%The contribution to the total OF prediction systematic uncertainty |
| 524 |
+ |
%from K is assessed from the ratio of K in data and MC, |
| 525 |
+ |
%shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:kvmet} (right). |
| 526 |
+ |
%The ratio is consistent with unity to roughly 17\%, |
| 527 |
+ |
%so we take this value as the systematic from K. |
| 528 |
+ |
%17\% added in quadrature with 7\% from |
| 529 |
+ |
%the electron to muon efficieny ratio |
| 530 |
+ |
%(as assessed in the inclusive analysis) |
| 531 |
+ |
%yields a total systematic of $\sim$18\% |
| 532 |
+ |
%which we round up to 20\%. |
| 533 |
+ |
%For \MET\ $>$ 150, there are no OF events in data inside the Z mass window |
| 534 |
+ |
%so we take a systematic based on the statistical uncertainty |
| 535 |
+ |
%of the MC prediction for K. |
| 536 |
+ |
%This value is 25\% for \MET\ $>$ 150 GeV and 60\% for \MET\ $>$ 200 GeV. |
| 537 |
+ |
%%Although we cannot check the value of K in data for \MET\ $>$ 150 |
| 538 |
+ |
%%because we find no OF events inside the Z mass window for this \MET\ |
| 539 |

\subsection{Uncertainty from the isolated track veto} |
| 621 |
+ |
This is the uncertainty associated with how well the isolated track |
| 622 |
+ |
veto performance is modeled by the Monte Carlo. This uncertainty |
| 623 |
+ |
only applies to the fraction of dilepton BG events that have |
| 624 |
+ |
a second e/$\mu$ or a one prong $\tau \to h$, with |
| 625 |
+ |
$P_T > 10$ GeV in $|\eta| < 2.4$. This fraction is about 1/3, see |
| 626 |
+ |
Table~\ref{tab:trueisotrk}. |
| 627 |
+ |
The uncertainty for these events |
| 628 |
+ |
is 6\% and is obtained from tag-and-probe studies, see Section~\ref{sec:trkveto}. |

\subsubsection{Isolated Track Veto: Tag and Probe Studies} |

\begin{table}[htb] |
| 653 |
> |
In this section we compare the performance of the isolated track veto in data and MC using tag-and-probe studies |
| 654 |
> |
with samples of Z$\to$ee and Z$\to\mu\mu$. The purpose of these studies is to demonstrate that the efficiency |
| 655 |
> |
to satisfy the isolated track veto requirements is well-reproduced in the MC, since if this were not the case |
| 656 |
> |
we would need to apply a data-to-MC scale factor in order to correctly |
| 657 |
> |
predict the \ttll\ background. |
| 658 |
> |
|
| 659 |
> |
This study |
| 660 |
> |
addresses possible data vs. MC discrepancies for the {\bf efficiency} to identify (and reject) events with a |
| 661 |
> |
second {\bf genuine} lepton (e, $\mu$, or $\tau\to$1-prong). It does not address possible data vs. MC discrepancies |
| 662 |
> |
in the fake rate for rejecting events without a second genuine lepton; this is handled separately in the top normalization |
| 663 |
> |
procedure by scaling the \ttlj\ contribution to match the data in the \mt\ peak after applying the isolated track veto. |
| 664 |
> |
|
| 665 |
> |
Furthermore, we test the data and MC |
| 666 |
> |
isolated track veto efficiencies for electrons and muons since we are using a Z tag-and-probe technique, but we do not |
| 667 |
> |
directly test the performance for hadronic tracks from $\tau$ decays. The performance for hadronic $\tau$ decay products |
| 668 |
> |
may differ from that of electrons and muons for two reasons. First, the $\tau$ may decay to a hadronic track plus one |
| 669 |
> |
or two $\pi^0$'s, which may decay to $\gamma\gamma$ followed by a photon conversion. As shown in Figure~\ref{fig:absiso}, |
| 670 |
> |
the isolation distribution for charged tracks from $\tau$ decays that are not produced in association with $\pi^0$s are |
| 671 |
> |
consistent with that from $\E$s and $\M$s. Since events from single prong $\tau$ decays produced in association with |
| 672 |
> |
$\pi^0$s comprise a small fraction of the total sample, and since the kinematics of $\tau$, $\pi^0$ and $\gamma\to e^+e^-$ |
| 673 |
> |
decays are well-understood, we currently demonstrate that the isolation is well-reproduced for electrons and muons only. |
| 674 |
> |
Second, hadronic tracks may undergo nuclear interactions and hence their tracks may not be reconstructed. |
| 675 |
> |
As discussed above, independent studies show that the MC reproduces the hadronic tracking efficiency within 4\%, |
| 676 |
> |
leading to a total background uncertainty of less than 0.5\% (after taking into account the fraction of the total background |
| 677 |
> |
due to hadronic $\tau$ decays with \pt\ $>$ 10 GeV tracks), and we hence regard this effect as negligible. |
| 678 |
> |
|
| 679 |
> |
The tag-and-probe studies are performed in the full data sample, and compared with the DYJets madgraph sample. |
| 680 |
> |
All events must contain a tag-probe pair (details below) with opposite-sign and satisfying the Z mass requirement 76--106 GeV. |
| 681 |
> |
We compare the distributions of absolute track isolation for probe electrons/muons in data vs. MC. The contributions to |
| 682 |
> |
this isolation sum are from ambient energy in the event from underlying event, pile-up and jet activitiy, and hence do |
| 683 |
> |
not depend on the \pt\ of the probe lepton. We therefore restrict the probe \pt\ to be $>$ 30 GeV in order to suppress |
| 684 |
> |
fake backgrounds with steeply-falling \pt\ spectra. To suppress non-Z backgrounds (in particular \ttbar) we require |
| 685 |
> |
\met\ $<$ 30 GeV and 0 b-tagged events. |
| 686 |

The absolute track isolation distributions for passing probes are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:tnp}. In general we observe |
| 732 |

good agreement between data and MC. To be more quantitative, we compare the data vs. MC efficiencies to satisfy |

absolute track isolation requirements varying from $>$ 1 GeV to $>$ 5 GeV, as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:isotrk}. |
| 734 |

efficiencies agree within 6\%, and we apply this as a systematic uncertainty on 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}). |

+ |
%In detail, the procedure to correct the dilepton background is: |
| 914 |
+ |
|
| 915 |
+ |
%\begin{itemize} |
| 916 |
+ |
%\item Using tag-and-probe studies, we plot the distribution of {\bf absolute} track isolation for identified probe electrons |
| 917 |
+ |
%and muons {\bf TODO: need to compare the e vs. $\mu$ track iso distributions, they might differ due to e$\to$e$\gamma$}. |
| 918 |
+ |
%\item We verify that the distribution of absolute track isolation does not depend on the \pt\ of the probe lepton. |
| 919 |
+ |
%This is due to the fact that this isolation is from ambient PU and jet activity in the event, which is uncorrelated with |
| 920 |
+ |
%the lepton \pt {\bf TODO: verify this in data and MC.}. |
| 921 |
+ |
%\item Our requirement is {\bf relative} track isolation $<$ 0.1. For a given \ttll\ MC event, we determine the \pt of the 2nd |
| 922 |
+ |
%lepton and translate this to find the corresponding requirement on the {\bf absolute} track isolation, which is simply $0.1\times$\pt. |
| 923 |
+ |
%\item We measure the efficiency to satisfy this requirement in data and MC, and define a scale-factor $SF_{\epsilon(trk)}$ which |
| 924 |
+ |
%is the ratio of the data-to-MC efficiencies. This scale-factor is applied to the \ttll\ MC event. |
| 925 |
+ |
%\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 |
| 926 |
+ |
%tracks from $\tau$ decays. Verena has showed that the absolute track isolation distribution in hadronic $\tau$ tracks is harder due |
| 927 |
+ |
%to $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ with $\gamma\to e^+e^-$.} |
| 928 |
+ |
%\end{itemize} |
| 929 |
+ |
%END SECTION TO WRITE OUT |

|

|
| 932 |
+ |
%{\bf fix me: What you have written in the next paragraph does not |
| 933 |
+ |
%explain how $\epsilon_{fake}$ is measured. |
| 934 |
+ |
%Why not measure $\epsilon_{fake}$ in the b-veto region?} |
| 935 |
+ |
|
| 936 |
+ |
%A measurement of the $\epsilon_{fake}$ in data is non-trivial. However, it is |
| 937 |
+ |
%possible to correct for differences in the $\epsilon_{fake}$ between data and MC by |
| 938 |
+ |
%applying an additional scale factor for the single lepton background |
| 939 |
+ |
%alone, using the sample in the \mt\ peak region. This scale factor is determined after applying the isolated track |
| 940 |
+ |
%veto and after subtracting the \ttll\ component, corrected for the |
| 941 |
+ |
%isolation efficiency derived previously. |
| 942 |
+ |
%As shown in Figure~\ref{fig:vetoeffcomp}, the efficiency for selecting an |
| 943 |
+ |
%isolated track in single lepton events is independent of \mt\, so the use of |
| 944 |
+ |
%an overall scale factor is justified to estimate the contribution in |
| 945 |
+ |
%the \mt\ tail. |
