Jet Commissioning: Algorithms CMS Jet Algorithms group -- Zielinski a co-convener since 2007

Jet algorithms define the procedure to cluster input objects: partons, particles, calo towers, tracks

We led algorithmic studies of jet performance and validation Based on this work, in 2009 CMS adopted Anti-KT algorithm

as the default jet reconstruction for LHC data Harel developed jet quality criteria for calorimeter jets

Reconstructing jets in calorimeter: Cells contribute to tower energy if they

pass energy thresholds Current thresholds (Scheme 6) for CMS

software developed with strong Rochester

contributions (Zielinski, Qi) based on

measurements of HCAL performance in

Global Runs (Miner, de Barbaro, Vishnevsky) New thresholds significantly improve performance

of calorimeter jets with respect to old Scheme B Implemented in RECO in fall of 2009, and in High Level Trigger in spring 2010

Phenomenology Connections: LPC and CTEQ

We are involved in CTEQ and LPC LPC is a major USCMS center for analysis We have trained many students at LPC

(Demina, Zielinski) CTEQ aims to provide guidance to LHC

collaborations concerning Standard Model issues and backgrounds to searches for New Physics

Search for Dijet Resonances in Mjj

Heavy particles decaying to dijets could be observed as resonant peaks in the dijet mass spectrum Such resonances are predicted by various

theory models of physics beyond Standard Model

This approach complements the searches using the Dijet Centrality Ratio

Using the luminosity of 836 nb-1 CMS has established upper limits on the production of several resonance types at 7 TeV In particular, we exclude a string resonance

with mass M < 2.1 TeV at 95% CL – currently the best limit

We expect to exceed the Tevatron limits for other resonances with several pb-1 of data

Commissioning for SUperSYmmetry

SUSY signatures are challenging and involve multiple objects (jets, leptons, photons) accompanied by missing energy SUSY events come from a variety of triggers Good understanding of the detector and

data flow is crucial for SUSY searches

SUSY Commissioning group was organized with this goal in mind Demina was asked to co-lead this effort Flaecher leading SUSY Prompt Validation

Team.

Responsibilities involve: Verification of the key variables (e.g. missing

energy) using cosmic and early collision data

Defining triggers and data sets, ensuring efficient access to data

Prompt monitoring of variables relevant for SUSY searches

Established close coordination with detector performance and physics objects groups

SUSY: Jets + Missing Energy Search

• CMS SUSY group is organised based on signatures

Reference Analyses based on jets, leptons, photons

• Rochester group’s focus is on: Search for a missing energy

signature in multi-jet events Large sensitivity due to high cross

section Signal is evidence for a Dark

Matter candidate (WIMP) Production of WIMP in cascade

decays of heavy new particles WIMP escapes the detector and

remains undetected => missing energy signature

• WIMP candidate in many models: SuperSymmetry, Extra Dimensions,

Little Higgs, Technicolor

New approach to Jets + MET searches using kinematic variable αT

For dijets:

For Multijets: recombine jets to form dijet system

Main background: QCD events For ideal QCD dijets: αT = 0.5 For mismeasured QCD: αT < 0.5

Current CMS data as of July 21,2010: 78 nb-1

[Aug. 31, 2010 we have ~ 3 pb-1]

More u quarks than d quarks in

the proton. W asymmetry measures the d/u

ratio at small x

W/Z physics – W asymmetry

With 25 pb-1 our expected W asymmetry errors match PDF errors

(4000 W’s per pb-1 )

Pt>20 GeV

Pt>10 GeV Expected error with 25 pb-1

So with 100 pb-1 (expected mid 2011), we can constrain d/u at small x and reduce PDF uncertainties at the LHC

Page 18: Rochester Physics Analysis Activities on CMS

Z/DY physics : 340 Z dimuon events as of Aug.15, 2010.

We now have 340 Zs in 1 pb-1 of data (mu-mu channel)

Note: Z cross section is factor of 10 smaller than W cross section. So need a factor of 10 more luminosity.

For 1 fb-1 (end of 2011) we expect ~0.4 Million Z’s and ~4 Million W’s.

( 0.4 Million DY/Z’s and 4 Million W’s).

1. Compare Afb and dN/dM to SM expectation (y>1). LHC not yet competitive with Tevatron

2. Measure Z angular coefficients. We will have similar statistics as the Tevatron, so compare to theory and to CDF measurements at the Tevatron, and determine fraction of Compton vs q-qbar processes. Dilution for A4=3/8(Afb) different for different QCD Monte Carlos.

Jet Studies for SUSY One of the major backgrounds to SUSY

searches in hadronic channels comes from mismeasured jets in QCD multi-jet events Jet response distributions exhibit non-

Gaussian tails due to detector effects and heavy flavor decays

This can lead to a large fake Missing ET

We are involved in Determination of jet response

distributions from CMS simulation Development of data-driven method to

measure response shapes from photon+jet events

Studies of various contributions to jet resolutions and their tails
