5 \section{Trigger Efficiency Model}
6 \label{sec:appendix_trigger}
7
8 As described in Section~\ref{sec:trigSel} we rely on a
9 mixture of single and double lepton triggers. The trigger
10 efficiency is very high because for most of the phase space
11 we have two leptons each of which can fire a single lepton
12 trigger -- and the single lepton triggers are very efficient.
13
14 We apply to MC events a simplified model of the trigger efficiency
15 as a function of dilepton species ($ee$, $e\mu$, $\mu\mu$), the $P_T$
16 of the individual leptons, and, in the case of muons, the $|\eta|$
17 of the muons. We believe that this model is adequate for
18 the trigger efficiency precision needed for this analysis.
19
20 The model assumptions are the following:
21
22 \begin{itemize}
23
24 \item Muon and electron trigger turn-ons as a function of $P_T$
25 are infinitely sharp. %{\color{red} Can we add references?}
26
27 \item All electron triggers with no ID have essentially 100\%
28 efficiency for electrons passing our analysis cuts\cite{ref:evans}.
29
30 \item Electron triggers with (Tight(er))CaloEleId have 100\%
31 efficiency with respect to our offline selection. This we
32 verified via tag-and-probe on $Z\to ee$.
33
34 \item Electron triggers with EleId have somewhat lower
35 efficiency. This was also measured by tag-and-probe.
36
37 \item The single muon trigger has 40\% efficiency for
38 $|\eta|>2.1$~\cite{ref:evans}.
39
40 \item If a muon fails the single muon trigger, it
41 will also fail the double muon trigger. This is actually
42 a conservative assumption. See Section~\ref{sec:emutrg}
43 for a discussion of $e\mu$ triggers.
44
45 \item The double muon trigger has efficiency
46 equal to the square of the single muon efficiency. This is
47 also a conservative assumption.
48
49 \item The $e\mu$ triggers have no efficiency if the muon has $|\eta|>2.1$.
50 Again, this is conservative.
51 \end{itemize}
52
53 The model also uses some luminosity fractions and some trigger
54 efficiencies.
55
56 \begin{itemize}
57
58 \item $\epsilon_{\mu}$=93\%, the single muon trigger efficiency plateau
59 for $|\eta|<2.1$~\cite{ref:evans};
60
61 \item $\epsilon'_{\mu}$=40\%, the single muon trigger efficiency plateau
62 for $|\eta|>2.1$~\cite{ref:evans};
63
64 \item $f9$=0.215: fraction of data with the Mu9 trigger unprescaled.
65 (run$\le 147116$).
66
67 \item $f11$=0.273 fraction of data with the Mu9 trigger prescaled and
68 the Mu11 trigger unprescaled.
69 (147196 $\leq$ run $\leq$ 148058).
70
71 \item $e10$=0.002: fraction of data with the 10 GeV unprescaled electron triggers.
72 (run$\le 139980$).
73
74 \item $e15$=0.086: fraction of data with the 15 GeV unprescaled electron triggers.
75 (139980 $<$ run $\leq$ 144114).
76
77 \item $e17$=0.127: fraction of data with the 100\% efficient 17 GeV unprescaled electron triggers.
78 (144114 $<$ run $\leq$ 147116).
79
80 \item $e17b$=0.273: fraction of data with 17 GeV unprescaled electron triggers
81 with efficiency $\epsilon_e^b=90\%$ (as measured by tag-and-probe).
82 (147116 $<$ run $\leq$ 148058).
83
84 \item $emess$=0.512: the remainder of the run with several different electron
85 triggers, all of $P_T>17$ GeV. For this period we measure the
86 luminosity-weighted
87 trigger efficiency $\epsilon(P_T)$ via tag and probe to be 99\%
88 ($17<P_T<22$, 97\% ($22<P_T<27$), 98\% ($27<P_T<32$) and
89 100\% ($P_T>32$).
90
91 \end{itemize}
92
93 The full trigger efficiency model is described separately for
94 $ee$, $e\mu$, and $\mu\mu$.
95
96 \subsection{$ee$ efficiency model}
97 \label{sec:eemodel}
98
99 This is the easiest. Throughout the 2010 run we have always
100 had dielectron triggers with thresholds lower than our (20,10)
101 analysis thresholds. Since electron triggers are very close
102 to 100\% efficient\cite{ref:evans},
103 the trigger efficiency for $ee$ is 100\%. We have verified that
104 the efficiency of the dielectron trigger is 100\% with respect
105 to the single electron trigger using $Z \to ee$ data.
106
107 \subsection{$\mu\mu$ efficiency model}
108 \label{sec:mmmodel}
109
110 We consider different cases.
111
112 \subsubsection{Both muons in $|\eta|<2.1$ and with $P_T>15$ GeV}
113 This is the bulk of the $\mu\mu$.
114
115 \begin{center}
116 $\epsilon = 1 - (1-\epsilon_{\mu})^2$
117 \end{center}
118
119 \subsubsection{Both muons in $|\eta|<2.1$, one muon with $11<P_T<15$ GeV}
120 In this case there must be a muon with $P_T>20$ GeV. The single muon
121 trigger is operative for the full dataset on this muon. Some loss
122 of efficiency can be recovered when the 2nd muon fires the trigger.
123 But this can happen only for a fraction of the run. The dimuon trigger
124 cannot fire in our model to recover any of the efficiency lost by
125 the single muon trigger on the high $P_T$ muon.
126
127 \begin{center}
128 $\epsilon = \epsilon_{\mu} + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon_{\mu}(f9+f11)$
129 \end{center}
130
131 \subsubsection{Both muons in $|\eta|<2.1$, one muon with $10<P_T<11$ GeV}
132 Same basic idea as above.
133
134 \begin{center}
135 $\epsilon = \epsilon_{\mu} + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon_{\mu}f9$
136 \end{center}
137
138 \subsubsection{Both muons with $|\eta|>2.1$}
139 This is a very small fraction of events.
140 %In our model they can only be triggered by the dimuon trigger.
141
142 \begin{center}
143 $\epsilon = \epsilon_{\mu}^2 + \alpha (1-\epsilon_{\mu}) \epsilon'_{\mu}$
144 \end{center}
145
146 \noindent where $\alpha=2$ if both muons are above 15 GeV, $\alpha=(1+f9+f11)$ if
147 one of the muons is between 11 and 15 GeV, and $\alpha=(1+f9)$ if one of the muon
148 is below 11 GeV.
149
150 \subsubsection{First muon with $P_T>15$ and $|\eta|<2.1$; second muon
151 with $|\eta|>2.1$}
152 The single muon trigger is always operative. If it fails the double muon
153 trigger also fails.
154
155 \begin{center}
156 $\epsilon = \epsilon_{\mu} + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\Delta_{\mu}$
157 \end{center}
158
159 \noindent where
160
161 \begin{center}
162 $\Delta_{\mu} = \epsilon'_{\mu}$ ~~~~(2nd muon with $P_T \geq 15$ GeV) \\
163 $\Delta_{\mu} = (f9+f11)\epsilon'_{\mu}$ ~~~~(2nd muon with $11 \leq P_T < 15$ GeV) \\
164 $\Delta_{\mu} = f9\epsilon'_{\mu}$ ~~~~(2nd muon with $9 \leq P_T < 11$ GeV) \\
165 \end{center}
166
167
168 \subsubsection{First muon with $11<P_T<15$ and $|\eta|<2.1$; second muon
169 with $|\eta|>2.1$ and $P_T>20$}
170 The single muon trigger at low $\eta$ is fully operative only for a fraction of the run,
171 this efficiency is captured by the first term below.
172 For the remaining fraction, we rely on the double muon trigger as well as the
173 single muon trigger at high $\eta$ (2nd term in the equation).
174
175 \begin{center}
176 $\epsilon = (f9+f11)(\epsilon_{\mu} + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon'_{\mu})
177 + (1-f9-f11)(\epsilon_{\mu}^2 + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon'_{\mu})$
178 \end{center}
179
180 \noindent which reduces to
181
182 \begin{center}
183 $\epsilon = (f9+f11)\epsilon_{\mu} + (1-f9-f11)\epsilon_{\mu}^2
184 + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon'_{\mu}$
185 \end{center}
186
187 \subsubsection{First muon with $10<P_T<11$ and $|\eta|<2.1$; second muon
188 with $|\eta|>2.1$ and $P_T>20$}
189 Same basic idea as above.
190
191 \begin{center}
192 % $\epsilon = f9~\epsilon_{\mu} + (1-f9)\epsilon_{\mu}^2$
193 $\epsilon = f9\epsilon_{\mu} + (1-f9)\epsilon_{\mu}^2
194 + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon'_{\mu}$
195 \end{center}
196
197 \subsection{$e\mu$ efficiency model}
198 \label{sec:emumodel}
199
200 This is the most complicated case. The idea is that the muon trigger
201 is used to get the bulk of the efficiency. Then the single electron
202 trigger(s) and the $e\mu$ triggers are used to get back some of the
203 efficiency loss. The various cases are listed below.
204
205 \subsubsection{Muon with $|\eta|<2.1$ and $P_T>15$}
206 This is the bulk of the acceptance.
207
208 \begin{center}
209 $\epsilon = \epsilon_{\mu} + (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\Delta_1$
210 \end{center}
211
212 where $\Delta_1$ is the efficiency from the electron trigger:
213 \begin{itemize}
214 \item $P_T(ele)<15 \to \Delta_1=e10$
215 \item $15<P_T(ele)<17 \to \Delta_1=e10+e15$
216 \item $P_T(ele)>15 \to \Delta_1=e10+e15+e17+\epsilon_e^b~e17b+\epsilon(P_T)~emess$
217 \end{itemize}
218
219
220 \subsubsection{Muon with $|\eta|<2.1$ and $11<P_T<15$}
221
222 This is the similar to the previous case, except that the muon
223 trigger is operative only for a subset of the data taking period.
224
225 \begin{center}
226 $\epsilon = (f11+f9)\epsilon_{\mu} + \Delta_2 + \Delta_3$
227 \end{center}
228
229 Here $\Delta_2$ is associated with the period where the muon
230 trigger was at 15 GeV, in which case we use electron triggers or
231 $e\mu$ triggers. Note that the electron in this case must be
232 above 20 GeV. This can happen only in the latter part of the run,
233 thus we write
234 \begin{center}
235 $\Delta_2 = (1-f11-f9)~(\epsilon_{\mu}~+~
236 (1-\epsilon_{\mu})\epsilon(P_T))$
237 \end{center}
238 \noindent where the first term is for the $e\mu$ trigger and the
239 second term corresponds to $e\mu$ trigger failures, in which case we have
240 to rely on the electron trigger.
241
242 Then, $\Delta_3$ is associated with muon trigger failures in early runs,
243 {\em i.e.}, run $<148819$. In this case the electron trigger picks it
244 up and the $e\mu$ trigger does not help.
245
246 \begin{center}
247 $\Delta_3 = (f11+f9)(1-\epsilon_{\mu}) \cdot \epsilon_e$
248 \end{center}
249
250 \noindent where $\epsilon_e$ is the efficiency of the electron
251 trigger for $P_T>20$. This is 100\% up to run 147716 (fraction
252 $(e10+e15+e17)/(f11+f9)$; then it is somewhat lower up to
253 run 148058, then it becomes very close to 100\% again.
254 For this latter part of the run we approximate it as $\epsilon_e^b$.
255 Thus:
256
257 \begin{center}
258 $\epsilon_e = (e10+e15+e17)/(f11+f9) +
259 \epsilon_e^b(f11+f9-e10-e15-e17)/(f11+f9)$
260 \end{center}
261
262 \subsubsection{Muon with $|\eta|<2.1$ and $9<P_T<11$}
263
264 Identical to the previous case, but replace $(f11+f9)$ with $f9$ everywhere.
265
266 \subsubsection{Muon with $|\eta|>2.1$}
267
268 This is a 10\% effect to start with.
269 The first term is from the electron efficiency. The 2nd term is the correction
270 due to the single muon efficieny.
271
272 \begin{center}
273 $\epsilon = \Delta_1 + (1-\Delta_1)\Delta_{\mu}$
274 \end{center}
275
276 \subsection{Summary of the trigger efficiency model}
277 \label{sec:trgeffsum}
278
279 We take the trigger efficiency for $ee$ as 100\%. The trigger efficiency
280 for the $e\mu$ and $\mu\mu$ final states is summarized in
281 Figures~\ref{fig:emuModel} and~\ref{fig:mumuModel}.
282 We estimate the systematic uncertainties on the trigger modeling
283 to be at the few percent level.

312 \subsection{$e\mu$ trigger study}
313 \label{sec:emutrg}
314 The $e\mu$ cross triggers were introduced late in the run and are
315 not well studied (as far as we know). We performed a study to verify
316 the key assumptions of the model:
317 \begin{enumerate}
318 \item the $\mu$ component of the $e\mu$ trigger is at least as efficient
319 as the single muon trigger;
320 \item the electron component of the $e\mu$ trigger is essentially 100\% efficient,
321 as already determined by tag and probe.
322 \end{enumerate}
323
324 To this end, we select $e\mu$ events in the run ranges were the
325 $e\mu$ triggers were operational as follows:
326 \begin{itemize}
327 \item An offline muon of $P_T > 10$ GeV satisfying the standard
328 requireemnts.
329 \item This muon must have fired one of the unprescaled single muon triggers.
330 \item An offline electron of $P_T > 20$ GeV satisfying the standard requirements.
331 %\item This electron must have fired one of the unprescaled electron triggers,
332 %which are known to be essentially 100\% efficient on real electrons
333 %from tag \& probe studies.
334 \end{itemize}
335
336
337
338 \begin{figure}[hbt]
339 \begin{center}
340 \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{emu_trigger.png}
341 \caption{\label{fig:emutrg}\protect $e\mu$ trigger efficiency
342 as a function of run number. We plot the trigger
343 efficiency of a given variant of the $e\mu$ trigger only for
344 the runs when said trigger was enabled.}
345 \end{center}
346 \end{figure}
347
348
349 We then defined the $e\mu$ trigger efficiency as the probability
350 for $e\mu$ trigger to fire on these events.
351 The results are shown in Figure~\ref{fig:emutrg}. We find 100\%
352 trigger efficiency (as expected) for {\tt Mu5\_Ele9}, {\tt Mu5\_Ele13},
353 and {\tt Mu5\_Ele17\_V2}. The other triggers ({\tt Mu5\_Ele5},
354 {\tt Mu8\_Ele8}, and {\tt Mu5\_Ele17\_V1}) do not work very well.
355 We note that the working triggers are seeded at L1 by both Mu and EG.
356 On the other hand, {\tt Mu5\_Ele5} and {\tt Mu8\_Ele8} are only seeded
357 by Mu. We have since learned\cite{ref:harper} that the inefficiency
358 of these triggers is due to an HLT bug that has recently been understood.
359 The source of inefficiency of {\tt Mu5\_Ele17\_V1}
360 is not understood
361 at the moment. Nevertheless, the working $e\mu$ triggers safely
362 cover the run ranges with the problematic $e\mu$ triggers.
363
364 Thus, our key trigger model assumptions are verified, {\em i.e.}, the
365 muon trigger piece of the $e\mu$ trigger is at least as efficient
366 as the single muon trigger, and the electron piece is essentially
367 100\% efficient.
368
369 %Note that if we calculate the efficiency
370 %relaxing the requirement on the single electron trigger, we find
371 %$e\mu$ trigger efficiencies of order 90\% instead of 100\% (for the
372 %working set of triggers). This must be due to the fact that we
373 %are measuring the efficiency on ``junk'' electrons, and the
374 %electron trigger efficiency on these electrons is not exactly
375 %100\% (the tag \& probe efficiency measurement on electrons from
376 %$Z \to ee$ gives essentially 100\%).
