1 < \section{Systematics Uncertainties in the Background Prediction}
2 < \label{sec:systematics}
3 <
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

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.

4 + [DESCRIBE HERE ONE BY ONE THE UNCERTAINTIES THAT ARE PRESENT IN THE SPREADSHHET
5 + FROM WHICH WE CALCULATE THE TOTAL UNCERTAINTY. WE KNOW HOW TO DO THIS
6 + AND
7 + WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY FROM THE 7 TEV ANALYSIS TO PROPAGATE ALL
8 + UNCERTAINTIES
9 + CORRECTLY THROUGH.  WE WILL DO IT ONCE WE HAVE SETTLED ON THE
10 + INDIVIDUAL PIECES WHICH ARE STILL IN FLUX]
11 +
12 + In this Section we discuss the systematic uncertainty on the BG
13 + prediction.  This prediction is assembled from the event
14 + counts in the peak region of the transverse mass distribution as
15 + well as Monte Carlo
16 + with a number of correction factors, as described previously.
17 + The
18 + final uncertainty on the prediction is built up from the uncertainties in these
19 + individual
20 + components.
21 + The calculation is done for each signal
22 + region,
23 + for electrons and muons separately.
24 +
25 + The choice to normalizing to the peak region of $M_T$ has the
26 + advantage that some uncertainties, e.g., luminosity, cancel.
27 + It does however introduce complications because it couples
28 + some of the uncertainties in non-trivial ways.  For example,
29 + the primary effect of an uncertainty on the rare MC cross-section
30 + is to introduce an uncertainty in the rare MC background estimate
31 + which comes entirely from MC.   But this uncertainty also affects,
32 + for example,
33 + the $t\bar{t} \to$ dilepton BG estimate because it changes the
34 + $t\bar{t}$ normalization to the peak region (because some of the
35 + events in the peak region are from rare processes).  These effects
36 + are carefully accounted for.  The contribution to the overall
37 + uncertainty from each BG source is tabulated in
38 + Section~\ref{sec:bgunc-bottomline}.
39 + First, however, we discuss the uncertainties one-by-one and we comment
40 + on their impact on the overall result, at least to first order.
41 + Second order effects, such as the one described, are also included.
42 +
43 + \subsection{Statistical uncertainties on the event counts in the $M_T$
44 + peak regions}
45 + These vary between XX and XX \%, depending on the signal region
46 + (different
47 + signal regions have different \met\ requirements, thus they also have
48 + different $M_T$ regions used as control.
49 + Since
50 + the major BG, eg, $t\bar{t}$ are normalized to the peak regions, this
51 + fractional uncertainty is pretty much carried through all the way to
52 + the end.  There is also an uncertainty from the finite MC event counts
53 + in the $M_T$ peak regions.  This is also included, but it is smaller.
54 +
55 + \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
59 +
60 + \subsection{Uncertainty on the Wjets cross-section and the rare MC cross-sections}
61 + These are taken as 50\%, uncorrelated.  
62 + The primary effect is to introduce a 50\%
63 + uncertainty
64 + on the $W +$ jets and rare BG
65 + background predictions, respectively.  However they also
66 + have an effect on the other BGs via the $M_T$ peak normalization
67 + in a way that tends to reduce the uncertainty.  This is easy
68 + to understand: if the $W$ cross-section is increased by 50\%, then
69 + the $W$ background goes up.  But the number of $M_T$ peak events
70 + attributed to $t\bar{t}$ goes down, and since the $t\bar{t}$ BG is
71 + scaled to the number of $t\bar{t}$ events in the peak, the $t\bar{t}$
72 + BG goes down.  
73 +
74 + \subsection{Scale factors for the tail-to-peak ratios for lepton +
75 +  jets top and W events}
76 + These tail-to-peak ratios are described in Section~\ref{sec:ttp}.
77 + They are studied in CR1 and CR2.  The studies are described
78 + in Sections~\ref{sec:cr1} and~\ref{sec:cr2}), respectively, where
79 + we also give the uncertainty on the scale factors.
80 +
81 + \subsection{Uncertainty on extra jet radiation for dilepton
82 +  background}
83 + As discussed in Section~\ref{sec:jetmultiplicity}, the
84 + jet distribution in
85 + $t\bar{t} \to$
86 + dilepton MC is rescaled by the factors $K_3$ and $K_4$ to make
87 + it agree with the data.  The XX\% uncertainties on $K_3$ and $K_4$
88 + comes from data/MC statistics.  This  
89 + result directly in a XX\% uncertainty on the dilepton BG, which is by far
90 + the most important one.
91 +
92 +
93 + \subsection{Uncertainty on the \ttll\ Acceptance}
94 +
95 + The \ttbar\ background prediction is obtained from MC, with corrections
96 + derived from control samples in data. The uncertainty associated with
97 + the theoretical modeling of the \ttbar\ production and decay is
98 + estimated by comparing the background predictions obtained using
99 + alternative MC samples. It should be noted that the full analysis is
100 + performed with the alternative samples under consideration,
101 + including the derivation of the various data-to-MC scale factors.
102 + The variations considered are
103 +
104 + \begin{itemize}
105 + \item Top mass: The alternative values for the top mass differ
106 +  from the central value by $5~\GeV$: $m_{\mathrm{top}} = 178.5~\GeV$ and $m_{\mathrm{top}}
107 +  = 166.5~\GeV$.
108 + \item Jet-parton matching scale: This corresponds to variations in the
109 +  scale at which the Matrix Element partons from Madgraph are matched
110 +  to Parton Shower partons from Pythia. The nominal value is
111 +  $x_q>20~\GeV$. The alternative values used are $x_q>10~\GeV$ and
112 +  $x_q>40~\GeV$.
113 + \item Renormalization and factorization scale: The alternative samples
114 +  correspond to variations in the scale $\times 2$ and $\times 0.5$. The nominal
115 +  value for the scale used is $Q^2 = m_{\mathrm{top}}^2 +
116 +  \sum_{\mathrm{jets}} \pt^2$.
117 + \item Alternative generators: Samples produced with different
118 +  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.
121 + \item Modeling of taus: The alternative sample does not include
122 +  Tauola and is otherwise identical to the Powheg sample.
123 +  This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible.
124 + \item The PDF uncertainty is estimated following the PDF4LHC
125 +  recommendations[CITE]. The events are reweighted using alternative
126 +  PDF sets for CT10 and MSTW2008 and the uncertainties for each are derived using the
127 +  alternative eigenvector variations and the ``master equation''. In
128 +  addition, the NNPDF2.1 set with 100 replicas. The central value is
129 +  determined from the mean and the uncertainty is derived from the
130 +  $1\sigma$ range. The overall uncertainty is derived from the envelope of the
131 +  alternative predictions and their uncertainties.
132 +  This effect was studied earlier using 7~TeV samples and found to be negligible.

287 + \subsection{Uncertainty from the isolated track veto}
288 + This is the uncertainty associated with how well the isolated track
289 + veto performance is modeled by the Monte Carlo.  This uncertainty
290 + only applies to the fraction of dilepton BG events that have
291 + a second e/$\mu$ or a one prong $\tau \to h$, with
292 + $P_T > 10$ GeV in $|\eta| < 2.4$.  This fraction is 1/3 (THIS WAS THE
293 + 7 TEV NUMBER, CHECK).  The uncertainty for these events
294 + is XX\% and is obtained from Tag and Probe studies of Section~\ref{sec:trkveto}
295 +
296 + \subsubsection{Isolated Track Veto: Tag and Probe Studies}
297 + \label{sec:trkveto}
298 +
299 + [EVERYTHING IS 7TEV HERE, UPDATE WITH NEW RESULTS \\
300 + ADD TABLE WITH FRACTION OF EVENTS THAT HAVE A TRUE ISOLATED TRACK]
301 +
302 + In this section we compare the performance of the isolated track veto in data and MC using tag-and-probe studies
303 + with samples of Z$\to$ee and Z$\to\mu\mu$. The purpose of these studies is to demonstrate that the efficiency
304 + to satisfy the isolated track veto requirements is well-reproduced in the MC, since if this were not the case
305 + we would need to apply a data-to-MC scale factor in order to correctly predict the \ttll\ background. This study
306 + addresses possible data vs. MC discrepancies for the {\bf efficiency} to identify (and reject) events with a
307 + second {\bf genuine} lepton (e, $\mu$, or $\tau\to$1-prong). It does not address possible data vs. MC discrepancies
308 + in the fake rate for rejecting events without a second genuine lepton; this is handled separately in the top normalization
309 + procedure by scaling the \ttlj\ contribution to match the data in the \mt\ peak after applying the isolated track veto.
310 + Furthermore, we test the data and MC
311 + isolated track veto efficiencies for electrons and muons since we are using a Z tag-and-probe technique, but we do not
312 + directly test the performance for hadronic tracks from $\tau$ decays. The performance for hadronic $\tau$ decay products
313 + may differ from that of electrons and muons for two reasons. First, the $\tau$ may decay to a hadronic track plus one
314 + or two $\pi^0$'s, which may decay to $\gamma\gamma$ followed by a photon conversion. As shown in Figure~\ref{fig:absiso},
315 + the isolation distribution for charged tracks from $\tau$ decays that are not produced in association with $\pi^0$s are
316 + consistent with that from $\E$s and $\M$s. Since events from single prong $\tau$ decays produced in association with
317 + $\pi^0$s comprise a small fraction of the total sample, and since the kinematics of $\tau$, $\pi^0$ and $\gamma\to e^+e^-$
318 + decays are well-understood, we currently demonstrate that the isolation is well-reproduced for electrons and muons only.
319 + Second, hadronic tracks may undergo nuclear interactions and hence their tracks may not be reconstructed.
320 + As discussed above, independent studies show that the MC reproduces the hadronic tracking efficiency within 4\%,
321 + leading to a total background uncertainty of less than 0.5\% (after taking into account the fraction of the total background
322 + due to hadronic $\tau$ decays with \pt\ $>$ 10 GeV tracks), and we hence regard this effect as neglgigible.
323 +
324 + The tag-and-probe studies are performed in the full 2011 data sample, and compared with the DYJets madgraph sample.
325 + All events must contain a tag-probe pair (details below) with opposite-sign and satisfying the Z mass requirement 76--106 GeV.
326 + We compare the distributions of absolute track isolation for probe electrons/muons in data vs. MC. The contributions to
327 + this isolation sum are from ambient energy in the event from underlying event, pile-up and jet activitiy, and hence do
328 + not depend on the \pt\ of the probe lepton. We therefore restrict the probe \pt\ to be $>$ 30 GeV in order to suppress
329 + fake backgrounds with steeply-falling \pt\ spectra. To suppress non-Z backgrounds (in particular \ttbar) we require
330 + \met\ $<$ 30 GeV and 0 b-tagged events.
331 + The specific criteria for tags and probes for electrons and muons are:
332 +
333 + %We study the isolated track veto efficiency in bins of \njets.
334 + %We are interested in events with at least 4 jets to emulate the hadronic activity in our signal sample. However since
335 + %there are limited statistics for Z + $\geq$4 jet events, we study the isolated track performance in events with

381 + The absolute track isolation distributions for passing probes are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:tnp}. In general we observe
382 + good agreement between data and MC. To be more quantitative, we compare the data vs. MC efficiencies to satisfy
383 + absolute track isolation requirements varying from $>$ 1 GeV to $>$ 5 GeV, as summarized in Table~\ref{tab:isotrk}.
384 + In the $\geq$0 and $\geq$1 jet bins where the efficiencies can be tested with statistical precision, the data and MC
385 + efficiencies agree within 7\%, and we apply this as a systematic uncertainty on the isolated track veto efficiency.
386 + For the higher jet multiplicity bins the statistical precision decreases, but we do not observe any evidence for
387 + a data vs. MC discrepancy in the isolated track veto efficiency.
388 +
389 +
390 + %This is because our analysis requirement is relative track isolation $<$ 0.1, and m
391 + %This requirement is chosen because most of the tracks rejected by the isolated
392 + %track veto have a \pt\ near the 10 GeV threshold, and our analysis requirement is relative track isolation $<$ 1 GeV.

530 + %BEGIN SECTION TO WRITE OUT
531 + %In detail, the procedure to correct the dilepton background is:
532 +
533 + %\begin{itemize}
534 + %\item Using tag-and-probe studies, we plot the distribution of {\bf absolute} track isolation for identified probe electrons
535 + %and muons {\bf TODO: need to compare the e vs. $\mu$ track iso distributions, they might differ due to e$\to$e$\gamma$}.
536 + %\item We verify that the distribution of absolute track isolation does not depend on the \pt\ of the probe lepton.
537 + %This is due to the fact that this isolation is from ambient PU and jet activity in the event, which is uncorrelated with
538 + %the lepton \pt {\bf TODO: verify this in data and MC.}.
539 + %\item Our requirement is {\bf relative} track isolation $<$ 0.1. For a given \ttll\ MC event, we determine the \pt of the 2nd
540 + %lepton and translate this to find the corresponding requirement on the {\bf absolute} track isolation, which is simply $0.1\times$\pt.
541 + %\item We measure the efficiency to satisfy this requirement in data and MC, and define a scale-factor $SF_{\epsilon(trk)}$ which
542 + %is the ratio of the data-to-MC efficiencies. This scale-factor is applied to the \ttll\ MC event.
543 + %\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
544 + %tracks from $\tau$ decays. Verena has showed that the absolute track isolation distribution in hadronic $\tau$ tracks is harder due
545 + %to $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ with $\gamma\to e^+e^-$.}

547 + %END SECTION TO WRITE OUT

549 +
550 + {\bf fix me: What you have written in the next paragraph does not explain how $\epsilon_{fake}$ is measured.
551 + Why not measure $\epsilon_{fake}$ in the b-veto region?}
552 +
553 + %A measurement of the $\epsilon_{fake}$ in data is non-trivial. However, it is
554 + %possible to correct for differences in the $\epsilon_{fake}$ between data and MC by
555 + %applying an additional scale factor for the single lepton background
556 + %alone, using the sample in the \mt\ peak region. This scale factor is determined after applying the isolated track
557 + %veto and after subtracting the \ttll\ component, corrected for the
558 + %isolation efficiency derived previously.
559 + %As shown in Figure~\ref{fig:vetoeffcomp}, the efficiency for selecting an
560 + %isolated track in single lepton events is independent of \mt\, so the use of
561 + %an overall scale factor is justified to estimate the contribution in
562 + %the \mt\ tail.
