2008.01.30 Selecting gamma-jet candidates out of the jet trees

Ilya Selyuzhenkov January 30, 2008

Data set

jet trees by Murad Sarsour for pp2006 run, runId=7136022 (~60K events, no triggerId cuts yet)

Jets gross features

• Figure 1: Distribution of number of jets per event. Same data on a log scale is here.

  

• Figure 2: Distribution of electromagnetic energy (EM) fraction, R_EM, for di-jet events (number of jets/event = 2).
  R_EM = [E_t(endcap)+E_t(barrel)]/E_t(total).
  Black histogram is for R_EM1 = max(Ra, Rb), red is for R_EM2 = min(Ra, Rb).
  Ra and Rb are EM fraction for jets in the di-jet event.
  Same data on a log scale is here.

   

  

Gamma-jet isolation cuts list:

1. selecting di-jet events with one of the jet dominated by EM energy,
   and another one with more hadronic energy:

   R_EM1 >0.9 and R_EM2 < 0.9

2. selecting di-jet events with jets pointing opposite in azimuth:

   cos(phi1 - phi2) < -0.9

3. requiring the number of associated charged tracks with a first jet (with maximum EM fraction) to be less than 2:

   nChargeTracks1 < 2

4. requiring the number of fired EEMC towers associated with a first jet (with maximum EM fraction) to be 1 or 2:

   0 < nEEMCtowers1 < 3

    

Applying gamma-jet isolation cuts
