5 CDF Detector General purpose detector. For this analysis, the important subdetectors are: Central Drift Chamber immersed in a 1.4 solenoid. Provides accurate lepton momentum measurement and position measurement. Electromagnetic Calorimeter. Lead-aluminium-scintillator calorimeter. Provides shower energy measurement as well as position measurement via wire chamber embedded at the EM shower maximum. Central tracker single muon resolution: 3.2% (for p = 45 GeV ) R. Lopes de Sá (Stony Brook University) W Mass at the evatron March 212 5

6 DØ detector General purpose detector. For this analysis, the important subdetectors are: Central racker. Silicon and scintillating fiber trackers immersed in a 2 solenoid provide accurate position measurement. Electromagnetic Calorimeter. Highly segmented uranium-liquid argon calorimeter with good energy resolution and coverage. Electromagnetic calorimeter single electron energy resolution (with E = 45 GeV ): 3.33% at η =. Average over central cryostat with W eν angular spectrum: 4.16%. R. Lopes de Sá (Stony Brook University) W Mass at the evatron March 212 6

7 Measurement Strategy he evatron was a p p collider with 1.96 ev of energy. In a hadron collision, it is impossible to know the parton system initial longitudinal momentum and, therefore, to measure the longitudinal momentum of the neutrino from the W boson decay. he transverse momenta carry part of the mass information. Both CDF and DØ measurements use binned likelihood fits to extract the value of the W boson mass from the following kinematical distributions: ransverse mass m = 2 (p (l)p (ν) p (l) p (ν)) Lepton transverse momentum p (l) Neutrino transverse momentum p (ν) electron p W p e /E Underlying Event u Hadronic Recoil electr R.

Lopes de Sá (Stony Brook University) W Mass at the evatron March 212 8

9 Calibration Strategies Full GEAN detector simulations are not fast nor accurate enough to describe the kinematical distributions used to measure the W boson mass. Both CDF and DØ develop parametrized fast simulations of the detector response to W lν events. he parametrizations are calibrated with data, using very different strategies. CDF strategy Detailed model of lepton interactions at the central tracker. Precise alignment using cosmic rays. Momentum scale calibrated using J/ψ µµ, Υ µµ and Z µµ mass fits. Use calibrated momentum scale and E/p distribution in W eν events to calibrate the calorimeter energy scale. DØ strategy Detailed model of the calorimeter response to electrons and photons. Detailed model of the underlying energy flow. Detailed model of efficiencies. Calibrate the calorimeter energy scale using the dielectron invariant mass and angular distribution in Z ee decays (electron energy scale α and energy offset β). R.

17 heoretical and modeling issues Ideas and developments to improve the model and theoretical uncertainties in the W mass measurement Use a wider lepton η acceptance to be less sensitive to PDF uncertainties. It has been done before at the evatron (DØ RunI). Phys.Rev.D62:926,2 Use evatron W lepton charge asymmetry to constrain the u/d PDF instead of low energy experiments. Available: C1W PDF set.

20 Conclusions CDF and DØ measured the W mass with precision at least as good as the world average before. he CDF measurement is now the single most precise measurement of the W mass. CDF and DØ measurements in excellent agreement. Model and theory uncertainties begin to play an important role. CDF analyzed 2.2 fb 1. DØ analyzed 4.3 fb 1 of integrated luminosity collected at high instantaneous luminosity runs of the evatron. he measurements at CDF and DØ can reduce the world average uncertainty down to 1 MeV when all the rest of the data is analyzed. he W mass will play an ever increasing role in the determination of the consistency of the Standard Model.
