Introduction & Outline• Impact Parameter Significance definition:
• Useful in Electroweak analyses to reject heavy flavour backgrounds, as well as background from light quark backgrounds.
• Need to understand how well MC models the distribution observed in data, and derive smearing factors to reproduce data distribution in MC.
d0Sig = d0 / σ(do)
Data MC consistency
Central electron biased d0Sig wrt PVCentral muon biased d0Sig wrt PV
• Plots from T&P in Z mass peak 81 – 101 GeV with tight muons and Medium electrons with pT > 20 GeV, |η| < 2.5
• MC underestimates d0Sig – need to apply smearing• Strange spike in the electron distribution around 5 – this is also seen in the unbiased
distribution
Track Brem Refit• Shoulder of d0Sig distribution is due to Brem• Refitting track to account for energy lost to brem and recalculating d0Sig could solve this• Two approaches to Brem refitting:
• GSF (Gaussian Sum Filter) : The non linear effects of Bremsstrahlung are taken into account by modelling the energy loss at each material surface by sum of Gaussians which is then convolved with the original PDF describing the track parameters.
• DNA (Dynamic noise adjustment) At each material layer it performs a single parameter fit to determine if any energy was lost at that surface. If it detects that there was energy loss it will increase the the uncertainty of the track parameters (hence noise adjustment) by an amount corresponding to the measured energy loss.
Single lepton efficiencies: electrons• Select medium central
electrons following ZZ baseline selection (no isolation or d0). Apply d0 cuts and measure efficiency
• d0Sig has larger rejection efficiency for conversion electrons
• Brem refit d0Sig has better rejection efficiency for heavy flavour
• d0Sig and unbiased d0Sig lose more signal efficiency for the same background rejection compared to brem refit d0Sig
• Endcap rejection is larger for conversion compared to heavy flavour.• |DNA d0Sig| < 10 remains 99% signal efficiency with 15~20% rejection rate
• |DNA d0Sig| < 8 remains 98% signal efficiency with 20~30% rejection rate for different types of backgrounds source

Data – MC smearing factors• d0Sig Biased Electron d0 error is underestimated such that width is larger than
for muon. However, the additional smearing factor 0.5σ is universal, with no obvious eta dependence
• d0Sig Unbiased: Combined muon unbiased d0Sig is from combined track instead of ID only track for unbiased d0Sig. For muons, the endcap smearing factor is smaller than barrel. Electron smear factor is not trivial

Data – MC smearing factors: Brem refit• Electron DNA refit d0Sig: (below) smearing
factor average is approximately 0.4. Flatter η distribution than for the un-refitted variables
• Electron GSF refit d0Sig: (right) MC has larger width than Data. Why does MC underestimate d0Err ?

Conclusions and Issues
• Clearly Impact parameter significance resolution worse in data than MC -> need smearing.
• Using brem track refitted parameters gives better background rejection / signal efficiency.
• Is it valid to use brem refitted track for d0 but not for other cuts (eta, isEM….)?
• Which is best refit algorithm to use?• Is it valid to apply smearing to d0 Significance rather
than to d0 ?
Loose Object Definition
Central Electrons• Author = 1 or 3• Use cluster energy, track direction
