1 Performance of the FastTracKer in ATLAS Maddalena Giulini under supervision of Prof. A. Schöning and Dr. T. Klimkovich Physikalisches Institut, Universität Heidelberg DPG Spring Conference, Mainz March 26, 2014

2 Tracking in ATLAS Trigger system for Run II Full tracking information immediately after the first trigger level in Run 2 selection of events with b s and/or τ s tracking: most powerful separation of signal with b and τ from QCD H b b, H τ τ, New Physics lepton isolation using tracking FastTracKer (FTK): global and fast tracking 2 / 11

3 FastTracKer (FTK) custom electronics system: global track reconstruction ( 100 µs ) highly parallel system organized in 64 η φ towers track reconstruction: p T > 1 GeV, η < 2.5 Performance in t t sample Not matched to truth in H ττ CERN-LHCC ATLAS-TDR / 11

4 FTK tracks in trigger objects and chains FTK tracks can help in many ways: Primary Vertices (PV): reconstructed from FTK tracks, (pileup rejection) jets: PV energy corrections similar to offline jets Jet Vertex Fraction cuts b tagging with FTK tracks muons and electrons: track-based isolation τ: number of FTK tracks in isolation cones (FTK Level-2 τ trigger), H ττ increase of acceptance of 28% for τ had τ had Missing Transverse Energy (MET): improve trigger resolution using track and PV information 4 / 11

5 Missing Transverse Energy with FTK tracks The challenge of MET triggers: global quantity: full detector (no RoI) high rate of low p T background events very important for New Physics! MET = hard term (high p T jets) + soft term (low p T objects) Run 1 MET triggers: only calorimetric information for soft and hard term very sensitive to pileup Run 2 global tracking is fundamental. Exploiting FTK tracks from PV for soft term: 1 better resolution 2 reject pileup contribution More sophisticated combination of calorimetric information with FTK tracks: Particle Flow! particle flow jets with better resolution for hard term 5 / 11

6 Particle flow (PFlow) algorithm main idea 1 match tracks (charged particles) to calorimeter energy deposits (clusters) 2 tracks + remaining clusters are used Benefits 1 better energy, η and φ resolution than calorimeter one of low momentum particles 2 only tracks coming from Primary Vertex (PV) taken into account pileup contribution reduction ATLAS on-going studies of application of PFlow to jets and Missing Transverse Energy with offline tracks improvements in resolution and scale 6 / 11

7 Application in Trigger of PFlow with FTK tracks At the HLT: Topological Clusters Tracks from FTK p T > 1 GeV & p T < 40 GeV z 0 BL < 110 mm d 0 BL < 2 mm implicit good track: at least 9 hits Samples µ =60): Signal: ZH ννbb t t (W b)(w b) (lνb)(qqb) truth lead multi-jet: 20 < pt < 200 GeV 7 / 11

11 Summary FastTracKer (FTK) will provide tracks at trigger level (after L1) many trigger chains will take advantage from global FTK track information FTK tracks in MET trigger chain and particle flow jets: improvement in pflow jet resolution wrt to standard offline jets steeper turn on curve of PFlow MET wrt Standard jet MET turn on curve reco truth /p ) T T Gauss σ (p FTK PFlow Jets Standard Jets ATLAS Simulation work in progress s = 14 TeV multi jet sample eta <1.5 Offline PFlow Jets truth p [GeV] T 11 / 11
