Physics Goals for Jet/ETmiss Studies

Jet PhysicsQCD Studies

Measure jet cross sectionReconstruction of resonances

QCD: W jet jet, Z bb, t b W Exotics: W’jet jetSUSY: A

Measure jet multiplicity in SUSY decayJet veto in central region to reject backgroundJet tagging in forward region

Missing transverse energy measurementSUSY and other New Physics signatures, e.g. HZZllReconstruct inv. mass in decays with ’s, e.g. A, tlb

The ATLAS Calorimeter System

Hadronic CalorimeterFe-Scintillating tiles in ||<1.5LArg EC (||<4.9)

Simulation of Detector Response

Geant 3 still “standard”simulation programGeant 4 to come see various talks

M. Wielers, TRIUMF 6

Simulation of Pile-up Noise~23 minimum bias events per bunch crossing at L=1034 cm-2 s-1

LArg uses bipolar shaper for read-out

“history” from around 27 bunch crossingsNoise peaks around zero GeVTile uses mono polar shapers“history” from 4 bunch crossingsResponse ~ Gaussian with FWHM of 50 ns

Simulation Session @ Calor 2002, March. 27, 2002

M. Wielers, TRIUMF 7

Simulation of Pile-up Noise~700 minimum bias events need to be added to signal events at high luminosity ( 30 BC’s)

For given cell type weigh energy according to shaper response for given timeRead minimum bias events via secondary stream

On the fly via direct access file which is kept in memoryAdd an additional simulation step (together with pile-up in all other detectors)

used to keep correlations between detectors Keep big number of min. bias events in

memoryCurrently done in Fortran, work ongoing to get it running in C++

Factors influencing Jet Reconstruction

Experimental factorsElectronic (and pile-up) noiseDifferent response to charged and neutral particles (0)Non-linearitiesgranularityLateral shower sizeDead material and cracksLongitudinal leakageMagnetic field effects

Physics related factors

Initial and final state radiationFragmentationUnderlying eventDepending on luminosity: minimum bias events

No unique strategy for jet reconstruction, depends on

Jet reconstruction algorithm, luminosity, physics process
