If more than 1 tau candidate following object selection:
Check for number of prongs per candidate multiple 1-prongs, event is rejected single 1-prong present , proceed using this tau
for analysis else (only 3-prong) use highest BDTJetscore
tau for analysis other 3-prong taus are kept as jets

Iterative Analysis Procedure
Previous Results relied on a fixed scale factor to luminosity for signal MC in the control region. Scaling the MC in this way implied a prior knowledge of what the top cross section value is.
To this end, we have altered the analysis to instead determine the scale factor for signal MC using an iterative approach beginning with an arbitrary cross section from which the scale factor is calculated.
The cross section resulting from the fit using this scale factor is then used to recalculate new scale factors and the process repeated until the cross section value converges.

Tau ID Systematic Study For “OR” Analysis
Samples: Signal Samples: Z → ττ final states selected
with one tau decaying via muon while the other hadronically
Control Samples: Primarily W → μν + jet data driven events
Background further reduced by subtracting the number of events with the same charge (SS) for muon and tau candidate from the number of events where the muon and candidate have opposite charge (OS)
15
Tau ID Systematic Study For “OR” Analysis Contd.
Samples Divided into 2 regions:1. Those passing TauID OR tight selection and OS-SS
subtraction2. Those failing both tight selections but passing OS-
SS subtraction Further define five variables:
NiW: Number of control events in region i after MC
predicted Zττ contribution removed Ni
d: Number of data events in region i Ni
S: Number of MC predicted Zττ events in region i Ni
bkd: Number of background events in region i Npred: Predicted number of signal in region 1

Tau ID Uncertainty is Estimated based on comparison of N1
S and Npred. Equations:

Previous Comments (12/20/2013)
LAr hole treatment: In 3.1 you say you are vetoing events with jets / electrons in the LAr hole. This
doesn't seem to correspond to the jet / Etmiss and egamma recommendations >Our analysis now does as prescribed on the twiki pages.
Then in 3.3 you say you reject electrons in the hole (this is inconsistent with 3.1, where you say you reject the event), but egamma recommends not to do this,
>The discussion was misleading. This discussion was about Lar noise bursts and was mixed up with LAr Hole. We fixed the text now.
Muon & electron scale factors:In sections 3.3 and 3.4 you say you are using scale factors for electrons and muons - how are these used in your case where you veto electrons & muons, rather than select them?
>This was a misinterpretation, electron energy is scaled using the prescribed correction factor and the muon pT is smeared again following prescription
Please provide details on which jet calibration configuration is used and which b-tagging calibration is used.
>We used anti-kt4 algorithm with EM+JES calibration for 2011 data as recommended by the top working group. (slide 5)
>For b-tagging calibration we used MV1 tagger with the calibration recommended by the flavor tagging group for 2011 data. (slide 6)
>Version 00-01-02 of the BTaggingCalibrationDataInterface was used. (slide 5)

Previous Comments (12/20/2013) contd.
Has this idea to use an OR of the likelihood and BDT tau ID been discussed with the tau CP group? How are the systematic uncertainties for this OR determined?
>No, This has not been shown in tau CP group meetings. However, the study is done separately by Serban for the tau ID related systematics and added as Appendix C to the note (see slides 14-17). This study tells us that tau ID related systematic uncertainties are not much different in the case of OR than as those if evaluated separately.
Please provide some details on the trigger scale factors and efficiencies you are using. >The triggers used in our analysis have expected average efficiencies in the appropriate data-periods
around 70% as measured on the signal sample. These triggers selections are initially used by the charged higgs analysis (for mH < mt) in ttbar decay with tau + jets final states: https://cds.cern.ch/record/1419805?ln=en#
Correlation between m(jj) and MET: Can you provide some plots demonstrating in the MC that m(jj) and MET are uncorrelated? >See slide 10
The mTW plot … Can you also add the same plot for m(jj) - this is an important check. >See slide 12
Can you add a plot showing the shape of the different backgrounds for the two variables you are fitting? >See slide 11
Can you provide the formula used in the fit and which minimization technique that is used? >We used the TFraction Fitter. The fit is performed using the signal templates taken from the MC , QCD
template taken from the data (loose sample) (see slide 10). For minimization this uses MINUIT2

Previous Comments (12/20/2013) contd.
Ensemble tests: To test the impact of fitting two 1D distributions, please could you make
ensemble tests based on the 2D MET-m(jj) distribution - you create the 2D distribution (with the same >>binning you have in the fit) and then draw toy experiments using poisson random numbers for each bin. You can then extract the 1D distributions from each 2D toy and pass them >>to the fit procedure. In addition to the linearity test - can you also produce the pull distributions?
> Work still in progress.
The offset and slope of the linearity test look to be inconsistent with 0 and 1, respectively. Is this corrected for? Also, the linear fit in Fig 8 seems to be quite poor - chi2 of 54 for 4 >>degrees of freedom - have you investigated this?
> The non-linearity is very small compared to our errors. Currently working on the 2D MET-Dijet Mass Distribution from last suggestion to hopefully solve this.
Could you clarify where ttbar events other than the signal (e.g. e/mu+jets) are included in the background estimates?
> The fake ttbar events have been added to the list of Other MC backgrounds subtracted away during the QCD template process (slide 9) and included in the Other MC backgrounds fraction (slide 18). It is treated as a constant background and scaled to luminosity. The result is a small correction to the previously stated result (slide 24).

Previous Comments (12/20/2013) contd.
There should be 17 components for the JES uncertainty > Work is in progress to produce and analyze the output.
516-527: tau ID / energy scale uncertainties: Please could you provide some details and numbers here and references to where the numbers are derived?
>Since this analysis is closely following the charged higgs analysis with mH < mtop and have similar final state (as referenced in our note). These numbers are borrowed from charged higgs note
Tables 6-8: The b-tag uncertainty seems to be missing from the tables?
> See slides 26, 27
Results: Please can you provide the dependence of the measured cross section as a function of the top mass - you can do this by re-running the analysis on the ttbar samples with a different top mass and then looking at how the measured cross section changes.

Ensemble Tests
Pseudo data was created using constant fraction for other MC backgrounds and varying signal fractions (0.2 to 0.7 in steps of 0.1)
For each signal fraction, the bin content was randomized for templates for Signal and other MC backgrounds from baseline samples and QCD from the control samples
The three randomized templates coming together formed the pseudo data
The procedure was repeated 10,000 times for each fraction resulting in a histogram for each fraction which could be fit to a Gaussian
