In this note we describe a first study of isolated same sign (SS)
|
| 5 |
|
|
and opposite sign (OS) low $P_T$ ($P_T > 10$ GeV)
|
| 6 |
|
|
dileptons (e or $\mu$)
|
| 7 |
|
|
in 7 TeV collision data. Our goal is to understand this
|
| 8 |
|
|
data sample as a first step towards a top cross-section
|
| 9 |
|
|
analysis~\cite{ref:topdil2009}, a $WW$ cross-section
|
| 10 |
|
|
analysis~\cite{ref:WW}, as well as SS and OS SUSY
|
| 11 |
|
|
searches\cite{ref:OSSusy}\cite{ref:SSSusy}.
|

|
|
|

|
|
With a 10 GeV $P_T$ threshold, the data sample is dominated by QCD
|
| 14 |
|
|
backgrounds and Drell-Yan events. We compare the observed yields
|
| 15 |
|
|
with predictions from Monte Carlo. In the case of QCD, we use
|
| 16 |
|
|
the Fake Rate method to predict its rate in a data driven way.
|
| 17 |
|
|
With the present luminosity, there is not enough statistics to
|
| 18 |
|
|
study kinematical distributions.

This note is organized as follows. In Section~\ref{sec:datasets}
|
| 21 |
|
|
we list the datasets used; the lepton identification criteria
|
| 22 |
|
|
and the general event selection requirements
|
| 23 |
|
|
are given in Section~\ref{sec:selection}; the event data yields are
|
| 24 |
|
|
compared with Monte Carlo expectations in Section~\ref{sec:yields};
|
| 25 |
|
|
the FR method is reviewed in Section~\ref{sec:FR}; the application
|
| 26 |
|
|
of the FR method is summarized in Section~\ref{sec:FRapply}.

{\color{blue} This document was originally based on $\approx$ 10

nb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. It has now been partially
|
| 30 |
claudioc |
1.4 |
updated to higher luminosity for ICHEP. We only update the
|
| 31 |
|
|
SS sign results becuse these are the ones that are relevant
|
| 32 |
|
|
for the SUSY ICHEP PAS (SUS-10-001). Furthermore the OS results are
|
| 33 |
|
|
less relevant for the ``Fake Rate'' studies because of the
|
| 34 |
|
|
large Drell-Yan contribution. A more complete study of the
|
| 35 |
|
|
OS sample is documented in our top-dilepton analysis note (AN 2010-193)
|
| 36 |
|
|
and the top ICHEP PAS (TOP-10-04).

from the SUSY convenors, we leave the old results in the

|
|
document. To facilitate reading, the document is color coded:
|

|
|
\begin{itemize}

\item everything in blue is new
|
| 43 |
|
|
\item everything in {\color{red}red} is old information that has been updated
|
| 44 |
claudioc |
1.2 |
\item everything in {\color{black}black} is old information that has not
|
| 45 |
|
|
been updated. In the case of plots and results, these would still be
|
| 46 |
|
|
with the $\approx$ 10 nb$^{-1}$.
