3 Jets: Jets and E play a major role for the LHC: Measurements of hadronic s provide tests of strong interac1ons. hey can be backgrounds and/or signals for many New Physics searches. he uncertainty on the calibra1on dominates the experimental uncertainty for many physics results. E : Measurement of E is crucial for the search of Higgs boson in the decay channels H WW lνlν and H ττ where a good measurement of E allows for the accurate reconstruc1on of the Higgs boson mass. Large E is a key signature for searches for New Physics processes such as SUSY and extra dimensions. CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 3

4 Calorimeter pile- up sensi1vity è Pile- up is one of the main challenges for s and E at LHC In- $me pile- up: addi1onal pp collisions in the same bunch crossing Adds energy in calorimeters mainly from minimum bias interac1ons (MB) Es1mated by the number of reconstructed primary ver1ces (N PV ) Out- of $me pile- up: residual contribu1ons from collisions in preceding bunch crossings LAr calorimeters sensi1ve to bunch crossing history: Long charge collec1on 1me ( 400 ns) Bi- polar shaped signal (600 ns) with zero integral over 1me does not permit full pile- up cancella1on: op1mized for 25 ns spacing (currently 50 ns ) large fluctua1ons of number of interac1ons from bunch crossing to bunch crossing. Es1mated by the average number of interac1ons per bunch crossing <µ> over 1me window >> 600 ns: <µ> = L σ inel / N bunch f LHC CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 4

5 Input signals to Jets and E opo- Clusters: group of calorimeter cells topologically connected op1mized for electronic noise and pile- up suppression: Cluster cells in 3D via noise- driven thresholds: Seed: E cell >4 σ noise Neighbours: E cell >2 σ noise Perimeter cells E cell > 0 σ noise = (σ noise electronic ) 2 + ( σ noise pile- up ) 2 Calibra1on using the local cluster weigh1ng (LCW) : Classifica1ons as em- like or hadron- like clusters based on cluster shape variables: energy density and depth. Hadronic weights, derived from pion MC simula1on, applied to hadron- like clusters. Correc1ons for dead material and out of cluster Improve correspondence between clusters and stable par1cles è Contribu1on from pile- up fluctua1ons can survive and overlap on large signal from hard scaoering process, more pile- up suppression techniques needed CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 5

6 Jet reconstruc1on and calibra1on Reconstruc1on of calorimeter s: Reconstructed from EM or LCW calibrated topo- clusters Using an1- k t algorithm with distance parameters R = 0.4 and 0.6 Calibra1on of calorimeter s: Mul1- step approach that combines in- situ and MC methods CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 6

7 Jet pile- up correc1on Signal added from pile- up: Distorts the energy reconstructed in s: Modifies p, smears resolu1on, adds mass, shiq axis in η, φ Jets from addi1onal pp collisions 50 First method: Offset correc$on MC based correc1on derived from response to pile- up Parametriza1on in N PV and <µ> : Δp = α (N PV 1) + β <µ> α, β obtained from the fits (slopes) Dependent on type and η Number of primary vertices (N ) PV Limita1ons: Average correc1on, does not account for event fluctua1ons in pile- up ac1vity.

8 Second method: area More sophis1cated correc1on based on the idea that noise (pile- up) 0.14 has a lower density (ρ) than signal: ALAS Simulation ρ = median Jet pile- up correc1on p,i A i ρ calculated for k t s with R=0.4 A i = area calculated with FastJet ac1ve area based on ghost par1cles: Normalised entries µ < 21 N = 6 = [GeV] PV N PV N = 14 = 18 PV N PV Pythia Di 2012, s = 8 ev LCW opoclusters Randomly generated distribu1on of par1cles with infinitesimally small p added to the event and clustered with real signal in finding process. Number of ghost par1cles associated to a is a measure of the area. Correc1on: p,i corr = p,i - ρ A i Advantages: Captures event- by- event fluctua1ons not described by N PV, <µ> Use of area accounts for by varia1ons in sensi1vity Data driven method: no dependence on pile- up modelling CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 8

10 rack- based pile- up suppression Jet Vertex Frac$on (JVF): rack based quan1ty to filter pile- up s: JVF = ( Σ p track PV / Σ p track ) Probability for s with matched tracks to come from hard- scaoer vertex selected with the highest Σ tracks (p 2 ) > 20 GeV, p N 3.2 ALAS Preliminary MC, No JVF Cut Data, No JVF Cut Z µµ + s MC, JVF > Data, JVF > 0.25 anti-k t LCW+JES R = 0.4 MC, JVF > 0.50 Data, JVF > JVF Uncertainty hree different JVF regions: JVF=- 1: no matched tracks JVF= 0: all matched tracks from pile- up 0 < JVF 1: JVF closer to 0 for with significant pile- up contribu1on JVF cut reduces pile- up s: Mean mul1plicity in Z+s improves data/mc agreement CHEF2013 µ Silvia Resconi

11 Jet energy calibra1on Simple correc1on based on MC rela1ng the reconstructed energy to the truth energy: Correc1on factor = E truth / E EM/LCW dependent on E, η Much smaller correc1on for LCW- scale s wrt EM- scale s Residual in situ calibra1on From in situ techniques that exploit the p balance between the p and the p of a reference object: Correc1on factor = < p / p ref > data / < p / p ref > MC Mul1ple methods to cover large kinema1c phase space: Di η- intercalibra1on: equalize p between central and forward γ/z + direct balance: compare p γ or p Ζ with recoiling p Mul1 balance: low p system recoils against a high p used to calibrate s in the ev regime.

13 E reconstruc1on and calibra1on Missing transverse momentum (E ) is a complex event quan1ty: Adding significant signals from all detectors Asking for momentum conserva1on in the transverse plane. Reconstructed physics objects: e, γ, τ, s, muons SoQ energy: topo- clusters and tracks not associated to physics objects Decomposi1on into cons1tuent topo- clusters to veto mul1ple contribu1ons and avoid energy double coun1ng Keep separate contribu1ons calculated from the nega1ve sum of calibrated p x(y) of physics objects and soq energy E x(y) = E x(y),e +E x(y),γ +E x(y),τ +E x(y),s +E x(y), SoQ erm + E x(y), µ E = ( E x ) 2 + ( E y ) 2 13

14 Effect of pile- up on E Resolu1on E highly affected by pile- up: largest acceptance (coverage area) of any given reconstructed quan1ty. Drama1c effect on E x,y resolu1on with increasing pile- up condi1ons: Resolution [GeV],E y E x <µ>=0: fit 0.40 <µ>=9: fit 0.68 <µ>=20: fit 0.81 <µ>=30: fit 0.88 <µ>=40: fit 0.94 E E E E E No pile-up suppression MC Z µµ Simulation s = 7 ev ALAS Preliminary E x,y resolu1on = k Σ E E x,y resolu1on doubles from <µ> = 0 to 20 (2012 pile- up condi1ons) Large impact on analyses with E in final state (SUSY searches, H ττ invariant mass reconstruc1on) Jet term and SoQ erm are the most affected by pile- up: E (event) [GeV] Jet term pileup correc1on with area method plus JVF cut. SoQ erm is very similar to pile- up, so any correc1on should be based or on PV associa1on or on exploi1ng the small difference between signal and pile- up è very challenging CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 14

15 E SoQ erm pile- up correc1on Resolution [GeV],E y E x First method: SoG erm Vertex Frac$on (SVF) rack based quan1ty to scale SoQ erm: SVF = ( Σ p track SoQ erm PV / Σ p track SoQ erm ) Uses tracks not associated to physics objects and matched to PV to provide a reliable es1mate of pile- condi1ons. Restore E x,y resolu$on closer to that observed in absence of pileup Limita1ons: calculated in limited coverage (ALAS ID η < 2.5) and does not take into account neutral contribu1ons 30 Data 2012 default Data 2012 Pile-up suppression MC default MC Pile-up suppression ALAS Preliminary Z µµ s = 8 ev Ldt=20 fb -1 Resolution [GeV],E y E x Data 2012 default MC default Data 2012 Pile-up suppression MC Pile-up suppression ALAS Preliminary MC Z µµ s = 8 ev Ldt=20 fb N pv CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi E (event) before pile-up suppression [GeV] 15

18 Conclusions ALAS has developed and comioned several techniques to mi1gate pile- up effects coherently on s and E : opological clustering, intrinsically noise and pile- up suppressed. Jet area method to es1mate event- by- event the p density from pile- up. Use of tracks to filter pile- up s and scale the SoQ erm: Jet mul1plicity and E resolu1on closer to that observed in absence of pile- up. A high precision obtained for JES in 2012 with in- situ techniques: JES uncertainty smaller than 2.5% for s with p > 0 GeV è Dedicated op1miza1on of all these techniques needed to face the new challenge in 2015 at very high luminosity: New techniques, like grooming, have been developed to reduce pile- up sensi1vity in boosted topologies CHEF2013 Silvia Resconi 18
