2 \section{Results for the ``edge analysis'' SUS-12-019}
3 \label{sec:edge}
4
5 The Aachen and ETH groups have reported an excess of low-mass, opposite-sign same-flavor events (see AN 2012/200 and AN 2012/231).
6 In App.~\ref{sec:edge_templates} we derive predictions for the Z background in the Z mass regions for the two signal regions used for this analysis,
7 and use these predictions to derive an estimate of the low-mass $\gamma^*$/Z contributions using an extrapolation technique
8 commonly referred to as the ``$R_{out/in}$'' technique.
9
10 %In App.~\ref{sec:edge_triggers} we provide a cross-check using single lepton triggers.

12 \subsection{Z Background Predictions for the ``Edge Analysis''}
13 \label{sec:edge_templates}
14
15 The two signal regions of the edge analysis are defined as:
16
17 \begin{itemize}
18 \item Low-\MET signal region (ETH)
19 \begin{itemize}
20 \item 2 \pt $>$ 20 GeV leptons with $|\eta|<2.4$
21 \item At least 3 jets (\pt\ $>$ 40 GeV, $|\eta|<3$)
22 \item \MET\ $>$ 100 GeV
23 \end{itemize}
24 \item High-\MET signal region (Aachen)
25 \begin{itemize}
26 \item leading lepton \pt $>$ 20 GeV, trailing lepton \pt\ $>$ 10 GeV, both with $|\eta|<2.4$
27 \item At least 2 jets (\pt\ $>$ 40 GeV, $|\eta|<3$) with scalar sum $H_{T}>100$~GeV
28 \item \MET\ $>$ 150 GeV
29 \end{itemize}
30 \end{itemize}
31
32 We begin with a synchronization exercise to make sure that we can reproduce the ETH/Aachen results. In Table~\ref{tab:edgesync} we
33 display the yields in the Z mass regions of the 2 signal regions and compare these to results from the ETH group.
34 In general we are synchronized to 3\% or better in all channels. Note that for the purposes of this exercise we include an additional
35 dimuon trigger (HLT\_Mu17\_TkMu8) which is not yet included in the results that follow. The inclusion of this trigger adds 3 $\mu\mu$
36 events in both the low \MET\ and high \MET\ signal regions.

72 In order to adapt the \MET\ templates method to predict the Z background in these regions, we make minor modifications
73 to the flavor-symmetric (FS) scaling factor $K$ and to the binning used for the \MET\ templates. The FS background
74 is estimated using e$\mu$ events in data.
75 To improve the precision of this background estimate, the dilepton mass requirement is not applied, and we apply a scaling
76 factor $K$, which is the efficiency for e$\mu$ events to fall in the Z mass window, extracted from MC.
77 The values of $K$ for various \MET\ intervals for the high-\MET\ region (using \pt\ $>$ (20,10) GeV leptons and at least 2 jets)
78 are shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:K_incl_highmet}.
79 Based on this plot we choose $K=0.13\pm0.02$ for \MET\ signal regions up to 200 GeV; for \MET\ 200-300 GeV and \MET\ $>$ 300 GeV
80 we inflate the uncertainty to $K=0.13\pm0.04$ and $K=0.13\pm0.05$, respectively, due to the limited statistical precision.
81 The values of $K$ for the low-\MET\ region (using \pt\ $>$ (20,20) GeV leptons and at least 3 jets) are shown in
82 Fig.~\ref{fig:K_incl_lowmet}.
83 Based on this plot we choose $K=0.14\pm0.02$ for \MET\ signal regions up to 200 GeV; for \MET\ 200-300 GeV and \MET\ $>$ 300 GeV
84 we inflate the uncertainty to $K=0.14\pm0.03$ and $K=0.14\pm0.07$, respectively. In addition, we change the
85 jet \pt\ threshold for the \MET\ templates jet multiplicity binning from 30 to 40 GeV, and change the $H_T$ bins to
86 (0,80,100,150,200,250,300,5000) GeV.

518 The strategy is to select Z$\to\ell\ell$ candidates ($81<m_{\ell\ell}<101$ GeV) with jet requirements corresponding to the
519 low-\MET\ and high-\MET\ signal regions, and compare the observed \MET\ distribution to the sum of the predictions from the
520 \zjets\ background (from the \MET\ templates method based on the \gjets\ data control sample), the flavor-symmetric background predicted
521 from e$\mu$ data events, and MC contributions from WZ/ZZ, as well as the rare SM processes with Z bosons ($t\bar{t}\rm{Z}$ and ZZZ, ZZW, ZWW).
522
523 The results of the low \MET\ signal region are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:results_lowmet} and summarized in Table~\ref{tab:results_lowmet},
524 separately for the Run2012A+B data (5.1 fb$^{-1}$) and Run2012C data (4.1 fb$^{-1}$).
525 In the Run2012A+B data, we observed a 1.6$\sigma$ excess for \MET\ $>$ 100 GeV, corresponding to the low \MET\ signal region.
526 However, this excess does not persist in Run2012C data, where we observe good agreement between the data and the predicted background.
527 In the combined Run2012A+B+C data (Fig.~\ref{fig:results_fulledge} and Table~\ref{tab:results_edgefull}) we observe reasonable
528 agreement over the full \MET\ range. In the \MET\ $>$ 100 GeV region we observe 288 events with a predicted background of $251\pm33$,
529 representing an excess of 1.0$\sigma$.
530
531 The results of the high \MET\ signal region are displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:results_highmet} and summarized in Table~\ref{tab:results_highmet},
532 separately for the Run2012A+B data (5.1 fb$^{-1}$) and Run2012C data (4.1 fb$^{-1}$).
533 In both periods we observe good agreement between the data and predicted background over the full \MET\ range.
534 In the \MET\ $>$ 150 GeV region corresponding to the high \MET\ signal region in the full sample, we observe 167 events with a predicted
535 background of $177\pm25$ events, representing a deficit of -0.4$\sigma$.

905 Given a prediction for the Z background in the Z mass window, we can extrapolate to estimate the low mass $\gamma^*$/Z contribution.
906 We extract the ratio $R_{low/in}$ of low-mass to on-shell Z events from data,
907 correcting for the contribution from flavor-symmetric backgrounds, according to:
908
909 \begin{equation}
910 R_{low/in} = (N_{SF}^{low}-N_{OF}^{low})/(N_{SF}^{in}-N_{OF}^{in}).
911 \end{equation}
912
913 Here SF and OF refer to the same-flavor and opposite-flavor data yields in the ``low'' ($15<m_{\ell\ell}<70$ GeV) and ``in''
914 ($81<m_{\ell\ell}<101$ GeV) dilepton mass regions. To predict the low-mass $\gamma^*$/Z contribution, we scale the total predicted
915 Z background by this quantity, which is displayed in Fig.~\ref{fig:Routin}. Here we measure $R_{low/in}$ in several \MET\ regions,
916 and assess the uncertainty based on the variation with respect to \MET.
917 Based on this plot we choose $R_{low/in}=0.08\pm0.02$ for the low \MET\ signal region and $R_{low/in}=0.13\pm0.03$ for the high \MET\ region.
918
919 \clearpage
920
921 We find the following results for the first 5.1 fb$^{-1}$. For the low \MET\ signal region, the total predicted Z background in the Z mass region is $39\pm9.6$
922 (sum of the \zjets, WZ+ZZ, and rare SM backgrounds from Table~\ref{tab:results_lowmet}, \MET\ $>$ 100 GeV region),
923 resulting in a $\gamma^*$/Z prediction of $3.1\pm1.1$ events.
924 For the high \MET\ signal region, the total predicted Z background in the Z mass region is $30\pm8.1$
925 (sum of the \zjets, WZ+ZZ, and rare SM backgrounds from Table~\ref{tab:results_highmet}, \MET\ $>$ 150 GeV region),
926 resulting in a $\gamma^*$/Z prediction of $3.8\pm1.4$ events.
927 Hence we summarize the 5.1 fb$^{-1}$ results as:
928
929 \begin{itemize}
930 \item Low \MET\ signal region
931 \begin{itemize}
932 \item Total predicted background in Z mass region: $138\pm18$ events
933 \item Total observed yield in Z mass region: 175 events ($+1.6\sigma$)
934 \item Low-mass $\gamma^*$/Z prediction: $3.1\pm1.1$ events

937 \begin{itemize}
938 \item Total predicted background in Z mass region: $98\pm14$ events
939 \item Total observed yield in Z mass region: 95 events ($-0.2\sigma$)
940 \item Low-mass $\gamma^*$/Z prediction: $3.8\pm1.4$ events
941 \end{itemize}
942 \end{itemize}
943
944 We find the following results for the full 9.2 fb$^{-1}$. For the low \MET\ signal region, the total predicted Z background in the Z mass region is $68\pm17$
945 (sum of the \zjets, WZ+ZZ, and rare SM backgrounds from Table~\ref{tab:results_edgefull}, \MET\ $>$ 100 GeV region),
946 resulting in a $\gamma^*$/Z prediction of $5.4\pm1.9$ events.
947 For the high \MET\ signal region, the total predicted Z background in the Z mass region is $60\pm16$
948 (sum of the \zjets, WZ+ZZ, and rare SM backgrounds from Table~\ref{tab:results_edgefull}, \MET\ $>$ 150 GeV region),
949 resulting in a $\gamma^*$/Z prediction of $7.9\pm2.7$ events.
950 Hence we summarize the 9.2 fb$^{-1}$ results as:

969 \subsection{Cross-check with single lepton triggers}
970 \label{sec:edge_triggers}
971
972 The nominal ``edge analysis'' is performed with dilepton triggers. An excess of SF vs. OF events may thus be observed if there
973 were some inefficiency for the e$\mu$ triggers used in this analysis. In this section we provide a cross-check of the nominal
974 analysis by including events collected with single lepton triggers. The relevant triggers are:
975
976 \begin{itemize}
977
978 \item ee channel
979 \begin{itemize}
980 \item dilepton: {\footnotesize \verb=HLT_Ele17_CaloIdT_CaloIsoVL_TrkIdVL_TrkIsoVL_Ele8_CaloIdT_CaloIsoVL_TrkIdVL_TrkIsoVL=}
981 \item single lepton: \verb=HLT_Ele27_WP80=
982 \end{itemize}
983
984 \item $\mu\mu$ channel
985 \begin{itemize}
986 \item dilepton: \verb=HLT_Mu17_Mu8= OR \verb=HLT_Mu17_TkMu8=
987 \item single lepton: \verb=HLT_IsoMu24= OR \verb=HLT_IsoMu24_eta2p1=
988 \end{itemize}
989
990 \item $e\mu$ channel
991 \begin{itemize}
992 \item dilepton: \verb=HLT_MuX_EleY_CaloIdT_CaloIsoVL_TrkIdVL_TrkIsoVL= (X,Y=17,8 OR 8,17)
993 \item single lepton: \verb=HLT_Ele27_WP80= OR \verb=HLT_IsoMu24= OR \verb=HLT_IsoMu24_eta2p1=
994 \end{itemize}
995
996 \end{itemize}
997
998
999 In the nominal analysis based on dilepton triggers only, an ee event is required to satisfy the ee dilepton trigger, a $\mu\mu$ event is required to
1000 satisfy one of the two $\mu\mu$ dilepton triggers, and an e$\mu$ event is required to satisfy one of the two e$\mu$ dilepton triggers. Here we compare
1001 the results obtained from the nominal dilepton triggers with those obtained by requiring an OR of the dilepton and single lepton triggers. In this cross-check,
1002 an ee event is required to satisfy the ee dilepton trigger OR single electron trigger, a $\mu\mu$ event is required to
1003 satisfy one of the two $\mu\mu$ dilepton triggers OR one of the two single muon triggers, and an e$\mu$ event is required to satisfy one of the two e$\mu$ dilepton triggers
1004 OR the single electron trigger OR the single muon trigger. The results are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:triggers}. Including the single lepton triggers increases
1005 the yields in the ee, $\mu\mu$ and e$\mu$ final states by (1--7)\%, and does not significantly alter the excess of SF vs. OF data yields.

1049 Next, we compare the results obtained with the dilepton triggers to results obtained with single lepton triggers only. Since the single electron (single muon)
1050 triggers have \pt\ thresholds of 27 (24) GeV, we use a dilepton \pt\ $>$ (30,20) selection. The results are summarized in Table~\ref{tab:trigger2}.
1051 Switching from dilepton to single lepton triggers alters the yields by (-2--5)\%, and does not significantly alter the excess of SF vs. OF data yields.
