Page 1: Z ->  t t

Z ->

• Signal and branching fractions

• Backgrounds and Triggers for the different “signatures”

Page 2: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> ...

• h h b = 82 pb

• h e pb

• h pb

• e pb

• pb• e e pb

Page 3: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> ee/

• Background:

• Z-> ee , Z-> b 30 times higher than for signal

• as in decays aligned with no difference in

• leptons have lower pt for signal (bad…)

• invariant mass - mZ

• But be aware: contribution…

Page 4: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> ee• pT electrons > 10 GeV

(DIEL trigger)• Z -> : .5% (.125)

20% of signal• Z -> ee : 38%• QCD: 0.02%: 1 event

(from4528 events with pt>20 GeV)

• ee inv. mass < 60 GeV: 1% Z -> ee left

• reinvestigate single e with higher statistic

Page 5: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> • pT muons > 4 GeV

(DIMUON trigger)• Z -> : 1.1% (.3%

background), 36%• Z -> : 36%• QCD: 9% of events with

pt>20 GeV• inv. mass < 60 GeV:

9% Z -> left• 0.6% from 800 W fake

Page 6: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> e

• = 12 pb

• Physics background: WW-> e pb)

top top-> b b e • QCD via misidentification (Zee, Z,W…)

• MU_EM: L1 e > 5 GeV, L2> 10 GeV L1,L2 > 4 GeV

Page 7: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> ee/e

• e: 16% eff

• 28 events (22 in right category)

• with projecting the MET back-> Z mass

• statistics too low for a meaningful plot

Page 8: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> h lep

• Signal = 39 pb each• Backgrounds:• QCD misidentification• Z(+ jets)-> ll + jets with misid+inefficiency• W(+jets) -> l + misid

• WW -> e h

• h : for now require NN>0.4

Page 9: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> h lep

• Possible triggers (electron case):A) Single electron: e pt>15GeV B) electron+jet: e pt> 10 GeV, jet> 10GeV C) electron+e pt>5 GeV (needs track trigger)

• Muon case: A) Single : threshold 7 GeV B) + jet: pt > 4 GeV but jet ET>20 GeV C) + : pt > 4 GeV and 5 GeV

Page 10: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> h lep

Page 11: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> h h

• Di tau trigger: needs track trigger

• requires two tracks > 5 GeV, one with preshower + 2 jets > 3 GeV

• difficult to study without trigger simulator...

Page 12: Z ->  t t

Z -> -> h lep

• QCD

• blue: • red: e• black: em

Page 13: Z ->  t t

Z -> needed:

• Working trigger simulator with events that can be processed by it

• root-tuples (or at least reco files) of:– Signal Z -> about 10k events– QCD files– W->e , W-> other, same statistics– other backgrounds as top, b, WW

Page 14: Z ->  t t

Z -> Conclusions

• Only leptonic decays:– expect about 20% efficiency– probably only e mode usable

• Leptonic hadronic mode:– efficiencies about 25% (40% without req)

• Only had: need trigger simulator

• And overall: need more statistics …
