5 Details of Analysis - Selection Criteria Filters used : FilterOutScraping, GoodVertexFilter, HBHENoiseFilter Muon selection criteria: tight muon selection criteria for 2011 Data η < 2.4 Global muon and Tracker muon χ2/ndf of global track <10 # of valid muon chamber hits > 0 # of muon chamber matches > 1 # of tracker layer hits > 8 δrvertex <0.2 Isolation criteria : Σ0.3 Pttrack/PTμ < 0.1 W selection criteria: muons passing selection criteria are sorted in order of pt, then: # of pixel hits > 0 Leading muon matched to HLT object: ΔR < 0.1 (HLT_IsoMu24 for Data and HLT_IsoMu15 for MC) Tracker pt of leading muon > 25GeV Drell_Yan veto: conditions on next-to-leading muon: pt>15 GeV η < 2.4 5

6 Details of Analysis - Method Asymmetry calculated in 11 bins of η : [0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.85, 2.1, 2.4] MC samples used to estimate backgroud and extract signal form the data Muon momentum correction is applied to data and MC to remove the momentum bias The distributions in the MC samples are corrected to better match the Data distributions. The corrections are described later. MET distribution in MC samples fitted to that in Data to extract the signals and estimate the backgrounds associated with the other processes that contribute as background The efficiency of reconstructing and identifying muons is calculated in Data in order to apply corrections in certain cases and to assign systematic errors arising related to the efficiency Systematic error is studied for the analysis items and will be described later 6

7 Muon efficiency scaling in MC Efficiency scaling in MC: Efficiency is calculated in Data and MC and the efficiency scale factor is obtained. The efficiency scale factor of the data to MC is applied into MC to match the signal shape between data and MC DY slelected events in Data and MC in bins of η of leading muon Before Efficiency correction After Efficiency correction 7

8 Muon momentum scale corrections Muon momentum scale and misalignment based corrections applied to Data and MC : Correction applied to remove the bias from the misalignment effect or mis-modeling of the magnetic field Rochester muon momemntum scale corrections used. Corrections based on Q(charge), pt, θ, φ of muons obtained using Drell-Yan sample described in AN , AN Additive and muliplicative corrections factors based on <1/pT> obtained separately for different Q in bins of θ, φ of muons Additional corrections based on Z mass Corrections used in the analysis are obtained in CMSSW_4_4_x corresponding to the η bins used for asymmetry measurement 8

9 Corrections Applied Corrections for Boson transverse momentum (qt) in MC Boson transverse momentum (qt) correction applied to W and DY MC : The modelling of boson transverse momentum (qt) does not match the Data closely in Z events in the powheg MC used for this measurement Correction is derived to compare the Z qt spectrum in the reconstruction level and applied into the generated Z qt spectrum Using the gen-level qt information, this correction is applied to the W and the Drell-Yan MC samples Z boson qt before (left) and after (right) qt corrections in data and MC. Ratio of Data to MC shown below. 9

10 Background Study and Signal Estimation - Method Fit of MC MET distributions to that of Data to estimate backgroung and estimate signal The following processes considered as signal and background: W μν W τν Z μμ Z ττ QCD tt To extract the signal from Data, the MET and MT (of MET and muon) distributions of the MC was fitted to that of Data. Fitting in 11 bins of η of muon Stacked MC fitted to Data to extract signal and background. Combined fit performed separately for μ+ and μ- events. Floated parameters of fits: 1. Total signal events(w μν) 2. Asymmetry of W+ and W3. Total QCD events For other processes, crossection fixed wrt W μν from MC. The asymmetry of W+ and W- for W τν taken to be same as that for W μν. 10

11 Background Study and Signal Estimation Correcting MET in MC samples Using the u and u components for Z μμ to smear MC Parallel and perpendicular component of Hadronic recoil wrt Z boson for Z μμ boson events considered individually. Resolution of the components of the recoil compared for Data and MC. Data found to have poorer resolution than MC. The difference in resolution between Data and MC taken in quadrature and used to smear MC. New value of MET and phi of MET calculated using the above smeared parallel and perpendicular components of MET. Corrections also performed based on number of jets in event. 11

12 Background Study and Signal Estimation Correcting MET in MC samples Using the u and u components for Z μμ to smear MC Basic definitions (Z) qt : Electroweak boson (Z) momentum in transverse plane. ut (or u in slides): Hadronic recoil in the transverse plane ull : component that is parallel to qt ET : Missing Transverse Energy (MET) Resolution for raw PF MET parallel (left) and perpendicular(right) components of u Scale factor corrections for MET depends on ET /qt which is related to l<ull>l/qt or the 'response' Resolution of u related to that of ET The difference between the Data and MC taken in quadrature and used to smear the MC to get better 12 agreement with Data.

13 Background Study and Signal Estimation Correcting MET in MC samples Using the u and u components for Z μμ to smear MC The difference in quadrature of RMS of Data and MC plotted against q T for PF MET parallel (left) and perpendicular(right) components of u. Polynomial used to fit the distribution. Parallel component Perpendicular component The difference between the Data and MC taken in quadrature and used to smear the MC to get better agreement with Data. 13

14 Background Study and Signal Estimation Fits Fit of MC to Data for η bin (top), (bottom) : μ+ events μ- events μ+ events μ- events Data, MC match in the signal region 14

15 Systematic Errors PDF uncertainties: For QCD, the central values taken Obtainined fits using the different distributions and calculated systematics Weighting the MC distributions based on PDF variations of the CT10 PDFs. Also looked at MSTW2008nlo, NNPDF21_100. Using the difference of the asymmetry obtained from the diffrent sets wrt that from the central value to get systematics and correlations (different for NNPDF, using similar method as described below for that) Methodology for other systematics (PU, muon scale Correction, MET Smearing (recoil correction), DY TTbar crossection): Varying different paramenters (PU, Rochester Correction, MET Smearing (recoil correction)) using Gaussian random numbers within the errors for those parameters 60 times. Entire procedure of obtaining the MET fits repeated for each iteration for each of the parameters (including muon pt cut in case of rochester correction) Asymmetry calculated from the MET fits separately for each iteration For every parameter, the aymmetry obtained from the different iterations used to calculate the systematic errors taken as the RMS. The aymmetry obtained from the different iterations used to calculate the the corelations. 15

16 Systematic Errors Systematics due to PU reweighting: PU reweighting done based on changed Data PU distribution and MET fits redone and systematics calculated Systematics due to smearing MET in MC (recoil corrections): Vary the minimum bias cross-section used to obtain PU distribution in Data with error as ±5% Varying the smearing factors of the MC based on the errors propagated in calculating the smearing factor Obtained fits after smearing using smear factor after taking errors into account and used that to calculate systematics Systematics due to muon scale corrections: The corrections factors were varied wihtin their errors. Made some modification to the code or Rochester correction to set the random number being calculated internally to be same as sysdev Procedure carried out separately for Data and MC and to obtain MET fits and asymmetry once keeping taking the correct muon scale correction for MCs but varying those in Data and once taking the correct corrections in Data and varying that in the MC samples The different values of asymmetry obtained to be used to calculate the systematics from Muon Scale in Data and MC and the correlations 16

17 Systematic Errors Systematics due to DY and TTbar crossection Varied the relative crossections of W, DY and TTbar crossections For W and TTbar, took the experimental errors scaled to the central value used from theoretical predictions, for DY took errors on theoretical predictions Theoretical values and errors from: Experimental values from: CMS-EWK (W cross-section), CMS-EWK (TTbar) Systematics due to boson qt Varied the qt corrections by ± 10% Obtained fits using the changed qt weights Compared the difference in the asymmetry in the different bins with central values The maximum absolute difference in asymmetry wrt the central value in each eta bin taken as the systematic error 17

18 Systematic Errors Systematics due to QCD estimation Using anti-isolation sample of Data and QCD MC to correct the shape of MET in QCD MC with isolation criteria The ratio of the MET distribution in different bins of MET taken for Data and QCD MC with anti-isolation criteria. Ratio obtained used to correct MET shape in QCD MC for isolation case by multiplying the MET distrbution of isolation QCD sample in bins of MET by the ratio obtained from anti-isolation case. The absolute difference in asymmetry wrt the central value in each eta bin taken as the systematic error For different efficiency of μ+ and μ- : Expected change in Asymmetry due to efficiency: Systematic errors assigned as: 18
