6 Hadronic tagging method : low momentum ~0.3 GeV/c Y(4S) e+e- (spherical) - e+e- collision at Y(4S) energy ¾ are continuum backgrounds - y requiring completely reconstructed meson at one side Continuum suppression e+e- (Jet-like) continuum Y (4S) - Very few wellreconstructed events E e+e- CM (GeV) 6

7 Hadronic tagging method - Signal lepton - Tagged Signal D K - Y(4S) Ex) D + (K - π + π + ) π - π - Invisible X >96% of Y(4S) with nothing else produced one -meson is completely reconstructed from known b c decays without ν efficiency is low, but purity is high Good way to reconstruct modes with invisible particle 7

14 Calibration in E ECL sideband + e + X + μ + X There are some disagreement between Data and MC, about p l > 2.2 GeV/c for E ECL sideband region(0.5 < E ECL < 1.0 GeV). Get Calibration Factor!! 14

15 Calibration in E ECL sideband 1.8 < p l < < p l < < p l < 2.3 E ECL cut : 0.5 < E ECL < 2.0 GeV (ecause we want more statistics) Data/MC ratio is fitted to linear function Ratio function : R(p l ) = p 0 + p 1 ( p l ) when p 0 and p 1 is parameter To fit well, we apply error to bins where no events (but MC exist) 15

16 Calibration in E ECL sideband Originally we use Data & MC ratio in p l sideband region to scale expectation of G So we use this ratio fitting function to scale G expectation. Calibration factor R* is used for scaling. We use ratio fitting function when fitting range 1.8 < p l < 2.65 GeV/c Old : G est Data side S( MC) S( MC) sig side New : G est R* Data side S( MC) S( MC) sig side 16

17 Summary * We search for + l + X, where X can be any invisible (and possibly massive) spin-1/2 particle. * We successfully suppressed background by help of hadronic tagging method. * In preliminary results, the upper limits are O(10-6 ) * Recently, estimated background is calibrated by difference between Data and MC in E ECL sideband. Thank you for listening! 17

31 Recent progress Lifetime acceptance of X We suppose that X have no experimental signature. Also, we set X is not decaying particle. X should pass ECL(CsI) calorimeter with no decay. M(X) p_{x}^{lab} Lifetime γβct = (p/m)ct > 2716mm (in Lab frame) So, we study for X to have lifetime more than sec case

33 Trial for understanding E ECL sideband From last AM, we try 3 kinds of approaching method to understand data events for E ecl Sideband region with high p l. 1 : We use lepton s momentum in LA frame. And draw their Phi & Theta value. 2 : We suppose they are from QED background like e + e - τ + τ - 3 : We give off-timing cut for data & 911-veto for MC, and look whether there are any better agreement. 33
