1 PHYSICS WITH LHC EARLY DATA ONE OF THE LAST PROPHETIC TALKS ON THIS SUBJECT HOPEFULLY We may have some two month of the Machine operation in 2008 LONG HISTORY... I will extensively use: Fabiola GIANOTTI CERN, ATLAS 2004 Wouter VERKERKE NIKHEF, AOW Paris 2005 Fabiola GIANOTTI CERN, ATLAS / /9/9/332 Fabrice HUBAUT CPPM/IN2P3, ATLAS & CMS I lepsza referencja Pamela FERRARI ATLAS & CMS asxiv hep ex v2 Albrert De ROECK CERN, KITF Seminar, 1 Apr 2008 Anna KACZMARSKA IFJ PAN Institute Seminar 16 Feb / 34

6 Peter Jenni ATLAS Coll. Meeting 7 Apr. 08 LHC machine status and schedule A rather extensive meeting took place on 3rd March between the DG R Aymar, J Engelen and ATLAS represented by M Nessi and PJ During this meeting we were informed about the machine status, we had a chance to explain our schedule, and to give input to the LHC start-up strategy discussions The main conclusions, which are still valid, were: - The current planning of the LHC is such that the machine is expected to be cold by by mid-june, and first injections could start soon after, from end June onwards - CERN Management will give ATLAS a warning signal 2 months before we have to start closing, currently expected by mid-april (around RRB) when the progress on the machine will be known from the cooldown status of further sectors - Experience from power tests in Sector 4-5 showed that several magnets need training, starting somewhere above 5 TeV equivalent - The first physics run (typically 2 months) in 2008 will be at 10 TeV (or slightly above), the energy will be defined in April when experience from Sector 5-6 will also be available Similar statements were also made during this Council Week, in addition it was said that 10 TeV collisions could be reached sometime in August 6 / 34

11 WHAT IS THIS ALL FOR? Flagships: Higgs searches physics beyond the SM supersymmetry extra dimensions precision physics (W, top, Higgs mass,...) b physics quark gluon plasma BUT it is NOT the first day physics. These goals and unprecedented complexity of detectors (ATLAS and CMS) require first: commissioning of detectors and triggers, first calibrations and alignment with minimum bias and QCD jet production, measure of some exclusive channels (e.g. Z > lepton lepton) to set the absolute electron and mion ECAL energy scale measure tt events to determine the absolute jet energy scale and understand b tagging in the inner detectors 11 / 34
12 Recently, prof. Peter W. Higgs has visited the ATLAS detector. Some say, that it is going to be the only Higgs seen in ATLAS 12 / 34
13 ATLAS Inner Detector: (Silicon pixels + strips +TRT particle ID (e/π ) ) B=2T, σ /pt ~ 4x10-4 pt 0.01 (e.g. H bb) Height ~ 22 m Length ~45m weight ~7000 t Muon system: (precision chambers + triggers in air core toroids B=4T mean value), σ /pt ~ 7 % at 1 TeV standalone (e.g. H,A µµ, H 4µ) Electromagnetic calorimeter : (Pb, liquid argon) σ /E ~ 10%/ E, Uniform longitudinal segmentation Provides: e/γ identification, energy and angular resolution, γ/jet, γ /π0 separation (e.g. H γγ) Hadronic Calorimeters: (Fe scint Cu-liquid argon) σ /E ~ 50%/ E 0.03 Jet, ETmiss performance (e.g. H τ τ, H bb) 13 / 34

17 A solid candidate for the very early valuable result: it is enough to collect events to measure dnch/ dƞ 17 / 34
18 Considerable statistics easily vailable to study and estimate absolute scales for electron and mion ECAL measurements as well as for the absolute jet energy scale 18 / 34

22 FASCINATING ROLE OF ttbar EVENTS : ONE GETS TO INTERESTING PHYSICS SIMULTANEOUSLY CALIBRATING MANY HIGHER LEVEL RECONSTRUCTION CONCEPTS SUCH AS JET ENERGY SCALES, B TAGGING AND MISSING ENERGY I have learned that from Wouter Verkerke at Paris AOW in 2005! Top production and decay at LHC LHC σ ~850 pb 10% qq, 90% gg Tevatron σ ~7 pb 85% qq, 15% gg LHC will be a top factory: 107 events already with 10 fb-1 22 / 34
23 Top physics at LHC Large ttbar production cross section at LHC sˆ = sx1 x2 ; x1 x2 ~ 10 3 gg tt σ tt( tot) = 759±100 pb Nevt ~ 700/hour qq tt Production: gluon dominated at LHC, quark dominated at Tevatron About 100 times larger than cross section at Tevatron (and lumi also) 23 / 34
24 Top topology Decay products are 2 W bosons and two b quarks. About 99.9% decays to Wb For commissioning studies consider events with one hadronic and one semi-leptonic W decay (about 30% of the total ttbar cross section 24 / 34
25 What can we learn from ttbar production? Abundant clean source of b jets 2 out of 4 jets in event are b jets O(50%) a priori purity (need to be careful with ISR and jet reconstruction) Remaining 2 jets can be kinematically identified (should form W mass) > possibility for further purification 25 / 34
26 What can we learn from ttbar production? Abundant source of W decays into light jets Invariant mass of jets should add up to well known W mass Suitable for light jet energy scale calibration (target prec. 1%) Caveat: should not use W mass in jet assignment for calibration purpose to avoid bias If (limited) b tagging is available, W jet assignment combinatorics greatly reduced 26 / 34
27 What can we learn from ttbar production? Known amount of missing energy 4 momentum of single neutrino in each event can be constrained from event kinematics Inputs in calculation: m(top) from Tevatron, b jet energy scale and lepton energy scale 27 / 34
28 How to identify ttbar events? Restrict ourselves to basic (robust) quantities Apply some simple cuts Hard pt cuts really clean up sample (ISR). Possible because of high production rate 4 hard jets (PT >40 GeV) Combined efficiency of requirements is ~5% still have ~10 evts/hour 1 hard lepton (Pt >20 GeV) Missing ET (ET >20 GeV) 28 / 34
29 Signal only distributions (Full Simulation) W CANDIDATE TOP CANDIDAT E Clear top, W mass peaks visible Background due to mis assignment of jets Masses shifted somewhat low mtop = 162.7±0.8 GeV Easier to get top assignment right than to get W assignment right m(tophad) Effect of (imperfect) energy calibration MW = 78.1±0.8 GeV L=300 pb-1 (~1 week of running) m(whad) Jet energy scale calibration possible from shift in m(w) S B S/B = / 34
30 Signal + Wjets background (Full Simulation) W CANDIDATE TOP CANDIDAT E Plots now include W+jets background Background level roughly triples Signal still well visible Caveat: bkg. cross section quite uncertain m(tophad) m(whad) Jet energy scale calibration possible from shift in m(w) L=300 pb-1 (~1 week of running) S/B = 0.45 S/B = 0.27 S/B = / 34
31 Signal + Wjets background (Full Simulation) W CANDIDATE TOP CANDIDAT E Now also exploit correlation between m(tophad) and m(whad) Show m(tophad) only for events with m(jj) m(w) <10 GeV m(tophad) m(tophad) m(whad) L=300 pb-1 (~1 week of running) S/B = 1.77 S/B = / 34
32 Signal + Wjets background (Full Simulation) Can also clean up sample by with requirement on m(jlν) [semi leptonic top] NB: There are two m(top) solutions for each candidate due to ambiguity in reconstruction of pz of neutrino Also clean signal quite a bit m(w) cut not applied here m(tophad) m(tophad) L=300 pb-1 (~1 week of running) m(jlν )-mt <30 GeV S/B = 0.45 S/B = / 34
33 Exploiting ttbar as b jet sample (Full Simulation) W CANDIDATE TOP CANDIDAT E Simple demonstration use of ttbar sample to provide b enriched jet sample Cut on m(whad) and m(tophad) masses Look at b jet prob for 4th jet (must be b jet if all assignments are correct) W+jets (background) ttbar (signal) random jet, no b enhancement expected always b jet if all jet assignment are OK b enrichment expected and observed AOD b-jet probability AOD b-jet probability Clear enhancement observed! 33 / 34
34 If we are lucky we may have some interesting use of the LHC machine already by this winter. Any way, come to Kraków EPS Conference next year 34 / 34
