Introduction & Analysis Strategy
Motivation: H→ZZ→2l2ν yield is approx. 6 times larger than H→ZZ*→4l so important channel for heavy Higgs (m
H > 250 GeV)
Signal : H→ZZ→2l2ν ~250 GeV < m(H) < ~600 GeV. For m(H) <200 GeV, Z+jets completely dominated.
Backgrounds and Rejection methods: All backgrounds can be reduced by applying cut on MET, ΔΦ(MET,closestJet) , M
T , PT(2l),
m(2l)
Z+jets (Dominant) : Fake MET so Hard cut on MET kills it considerably.
ΔΦ(MET,closestJet) helps in reducing it for lower Higgs masses.
TTbar : anti-b-Tagging & soft muon veto
ZZ→2l2ν (Irreducible)
WZ→3lν : 3rd Lepton Veto
WW→2l2ν : Invariant Mass cut of Z boson
W+jets, QCD are less effective backgrounds and can be controlled easily.
We have shown interest in Electron Studies for this channel like ID comparison and data/MC comparison, Trigger Studies, ttBar estimation and MVA Analysis for this channel. It is shown in the following link:https://indico.cern.ch/getFile.py/access?contribId=6&sessionId=5&resId=0&materialId=slides&confId=130679

Changes in the Analysis since last update
Adjustments in γ+jets method for background estimationOver-estimation of background in 0-jet bin, contamination from real MET sources like (Z+γ , W+γ , W+Jets)Contamination can be reduced by requiring atleast one “soft-jet” in the photon event with pT > 15 GeV
Cut based analysis was retuned using GARCON algorithmOptimize the expected limitOptimization done with larger MC samplesNew working points are mainly tight M
T windows
Parametrization of systematic uncertainity estimate in the optimization procedure has been changed
MT shape-based analysis has been introduced. 10% improvement has been seen in the limits.

Event SelectionPrimary Vertex: Official Deterministic Annealing Algorithm is used to reconstruct PV PV isNotFake && isValid && ndof >= 4.0 && position.Rho < 2.0 mm && abs(z) < 24 cm
Electron Selection: PT > 20 GeV , |η| < 2.5 Veto electrons in the transition region (1.4442 < |η| < 1.566) VBTF ID (WP80) (detailed cuts in back-up) H/E cut in endcap relaxed to 0.15 to remove inefficiency due to pileup Combined relative isolation < 0.1 (Fast-jet Corrected)
Further Selection: Soft Muon veto : Reject events having muons with pT > 3GeV and reconstructed as TrackerMuon. If pT > 20 GeV then it should be non-isolated. Third Lepton Veto: Reject Event having the third electron with pT > 10 GeV and pass the above ID cuts 76.2 GeV < Inv mass < 106.2 GeV
Preselection = Electron Selection + Further Selection
Pile Up reweighting is done as per the official recipe mentioned on :https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/viewauth/CMS/PileupMCReweightingUtilities
Beam-Halo and HCAL Noise filters are applied to remove non-collision events.

Background Estimation MC : ZZ,WZ Data Driven : Z+jets, tt~/W+jets/WW
Z+jets : γ+Jets events are used as a control sample to model Z+Jets background.
tt~/WW/W+jets : To estimate the non-resonant background, Z-sideband method with the events in eµ final state is used.

Service Tasks and Shifts
I am working in ECAL Reco Software Development. First task was : Remove custom logging in favour of LogTrace.
https://savannah.cern.ch/task/?18294 Its been completed and submitted. Following Tags of packages have these changes included in them. These changes are queued for CMSSW_4_4_XRecoEcal/EgammaClusterAlgos V00-06-28RecoEcal/EgammaClusterProducers V00-09-20
I took 3 weeks of ECAL PFG Expert shifts from August 2011 to December 2011. Shifter reports has been shown in weekly ECAL PFG meetings.

Last Visit : My last visit to cern was from 17th Sept. - 17th Dec. 2011.In my last visit i was involved in following things:
Overall Contribution I took 10 ECAL Online shifts and 5 Online Trigger shifts in CMS control room at P5 in 2010.
Then in 2011, I took 21 Online Trigger Shifts at P5. I took 3 weeks of ECAL PFG expert shifts in 2011. I am also involved in ECAL DPG tasks.
Future work : Second task in hand is : Removal of MyWatcher instances from ECAL Software Signed for Trigger Online shifts for 2012 Run. Signed for 3 weeks of ECAL PFG expert shifts.

comparison and Systematics.
During last CERN visit (17th Sept. 2011 – 17th Dec. 2011) , I took 3 weeks of ECAL

Also involved in ECAL Reconstruction Software Development as ECAL DPG task.
Summary
Outlook Plan to apply MVA BDT in this Analysis.
Continue with the ECAL DPG task.
I signed for 21 Trigger Online shifts at CMS Control room.
Also I got 3 weeks of ECAL PFG Expert shifts in the next year.
I also started with H->WW*->l+tau analysis with Ajay Kumar. Will contiue working on it.
I will also be involved in Trigger studies for backgrounds in H->ZZ->2l2nu channel for
February 2012 Trigger Review.

Background Estimation MC : ZZ,WZ Data Driven : Z+jets, tt~/W+jets/WW
Z+jets : γ+Jets events are used as a control sample to model Z+Jets background. Z+Jets and γ+jets events have similar MET response Also γ+jets events have much larger statistics compared to Z+Jets γ+Jets events are reweighted to match the photon PT shape with Z PT shape Also they are reweighted to match the number of primary vertices. A “mass” is assigned to each photon by sampling from the Z line shape from data γ+Jets yield is normalized to match the Z+Jets yields in data
tt~/WW/W+jets : To estimate the non-resonant background, events in eµ final state passing the full analysis selection are used. A scale factor α is computed from the sidebands (SB) of the Z peak to get the estimate of events in ee/µµ final states. Method can not distinguish between background events and possible signal events in H->WW->2l2ν channel Hence we do not treat H->WW events as a part of the signal when looking for an excess.
