3 / Motivation Motivation The improvement in π energy resolution from mass-constrained fitting of π γγ decay depends crucially on the determination of the opening angle, ψ 1, between the two photons: m = 4E 1 E sin (ψ 1 /). This is a function of the reconstructed position vectors of the two photons in the ECAL, and so depends on the measurement of (φ, cos θ) for each photon.

September 9, 11 3 / 17

4 Method Electromagnetic Shower Fitting Electromagnetic showers are well-behaved and governed by well understood stochastic processes. Sophisticated parametrizations of both shower shapes and fluctuations and their correlations are used in fast shower simulation. In particular, rindhammer and Peters (hep-ex/1) have a well-tuned model which reproduces full EANT. This is used in FLASH. Plan: Use these parametrizations to improve the reconstruction of photon 4-vectors by fitting the observed cell energies to the model. Will exploit the very narrow core of EM showers near the start of the shower to improve position resolution. (I demonstrated this in an old study with 1mm cells.) raham W. Wilson (University of Kansas) LCWS11 ranada: Sim./Det.Perf./Reco. September 9, 11 4 / 17

5 Method rindhammer-peters Model Describes the spatial energy distribution of electromagnetic showers in terms of the energy deposition in a 3-d volume element in the scaled longitudinal variable, t (in X ), scaled radial variable, r (in R M ), and the azimuthal variable, φ. de(t, r, φ) = E f L (t) f R (r) f (φ) dt dr dφ The average longitudinal distribution uses the usual gamma distribution: f L (t; α, β) = β (β t) α 1 exp ( β t)/γ(α) where the shape parameter, α, and the scaling parameter, β, are related to the longitudinal center of gravity, < t >, and the shower maximum depth, T, by < t >= α/β and T = (α 1)/β. raham W. Wilson (University of Kansas) LCWS11 ranada: Sim./Det.Perf./Reco. September 9, 11 5 / 17

6 Method Average Radial Profile vs Shower Depth P use two component ansatz with R C, (R T ) being the median radial extent of the core (tail) and p giving the relative weight of the core. The shower depth in units of the shower maximum, τ = t/t is used to parameterize the radial profile parameters, namely R C (τ), R T (τ), p(τ). raham W. Wilson (University of Kansas) LCWS11 ranada: Sim./Det.Perf./Reco. September 9, 11 6 / 17

7 Longitudinal Shower Fit Results Example: 5 ev photon, ILD. Maximum likelihood fit to the measured energies per pseudo-layer for the 3 free parameters using a suitable choice of fit parameters: log E, log (α 1), log T. Use SL simplex implementation for minimimization. For now, neglect angle of incidence issues; the β parameter accommodates this anyway. Longitudinal Shower Profile Fit Deposited Energy (ev) Longitudinal Layer (arb. units) Use amma distribution for sampling fluctuations with stochastic errors of 17%/ E and 4%/ E. (P eqns 1-15). raham W. Wilson (University of Kansas) LCWS11 ranada: Sim./Det.Perf./Reco. September 9, 11 7 / 17

8 Results Longitudinal Shower Fit Remarks Longitudinal Shower Profile Fit Deposited Energy (ev) Longitudinal Layer (arb. units) These fits work remarkably well with typically 98% of fits leading to sensible answers even with all 3 parameters floating. Currently using default EM sampling fractions. The fitted energies are competitive (and highly correlated) with the measured energy. Can imagine allowing for t-dependent weights on a shower-by-shower basis and there may be some room to improve the energy resolution. raham W. Wilson (University of Kansas) LCWS11 ranada: Sim./Det.Perf./Reco. September 9, 11 8 / 17

9 Results Using the Radial Profile Expectations Simulating the radial profile fluctuations vs depth needs knowledge of the longitudinal fluctuations for the particular shower. So, the longitudinal fit is used to calculate τ i = t/t i where T i is the fitted shower max. So far, I took the evaluated R C, R T, p values for each pseudo-layer of an individual shower assuming cos θ =, and then used the median R of that radial profile at that fitted shower depth to calculate weight functions for position estimation. The default position estimator one usually uses for photon momentum reconstruction is the shower center-of-gravity r Co = ( N i=1 E i r i )/( N i=1 E i) We investigated r LW = ( N i=1 E iw i r i )/( N i=1 E iw i ) with w i = R α. We also investigated using different values of α for determining φ and cos θ, denoting the parameter, α φ and α θ. raham W. Wilson (University of Kansas) LCWS11 ranada: Sim./Det.Perf./Reco. September 9, 11 9 / 17

10 One way of quantifying the essential -d nature of photon cluster reconstruction is to measure the distribution of separation angle between the reconstructed photon and the generator photon in space. This can be described by a Rayleigh distribution if the resolution contribution from both components is similar - which is a fair approximation. raham W.

17 Conclusions Conclusions/Summary/Open Issues Shower fitting has potential to improve calorimeter measurements. First attempts at longitudinal fits appear very promising, and indicate that it is feasible to measure the 3 main longitudinal shower parameters. Longitudinal weighting of position estimates shows improvement over shower Co. Need to take care of systematics in φ and cos θ (which are there also for Co...) - in progress, and re-visit α optimization. Not sure how easy it will be to really adapt the method seamlessly to all incidence angles. Full 3-d fitting of all cells to a shower model looks to be worth pursuing for photons - particularly with regard to reducing finite cell-size type systematics. raham W.
