Update on the HZZ 250 GeV +80/-30 250/fb Analysis for 17-19 September 2013:


Analysis Procedure:

  • divide into 4 jet / 6 jet topologies
    • this is ZH with H->ZZ* , Z-> nn,ll,qq
  • apply preselection depending on topology
  • train/apply TMVAs
  • validate with cut table
  • check remaining backgrounds

Distributions before preselection with only a cut on the reconstructed Higgs mass:







Preselection:

Simplified and making only clean cuts ...

Evis<140.0: (4 Jet category)
#y34>0.0#hmass>95. && hmass<140.
#PTvisJETS>25.0 && PTvisJETS<70.0
#nTrks>5.
#ej1<120.

Evis>140: (6 jet category)
#y34>0.0
#hmass>90. && hmass<160.
#ej1<120.
#jetthrust<0.98
#nTrks>5

Distributions after preselection:




(Note: the lepton pair mass plot has the entries at less than 10 GeV randomly set to 10 and 130 GeV so that the signal peak can be seen.)

The TMVA variables:

  1. Evis JETS
  2. Mvis JETS
  3. PTvis JETS
  4. B Likeness
  5. C likeness
  6. Number of HE Electrons
  7. Higgs Mass
  8. Z energy
  9. Zstr energy
  10. Z cos theta
  11. Zstr cos theta
  12. Z mass
  13. Zstr mass
  14. azimuthal separation of Z jets
  15. thrust
  16. Number Charged Tracks
  17. Number of electrons
  18. Number of muons

----NEW VARIABLES:

  1. y34
  2. y56
  3. lepton pair (PDG ID1 = -ID2) mass closest to Mz
  4. jet pair mass closest to mW
  5. jet pair1 - mW

    +

    jet pair2 - mW

Some signals are just not reasonable to try to select:

1) decays like l+l-H where H->ffnunu
Even in cases where the ff are leptons the initial l+l- are more energetic
and those were being selected.

eeH, H -> cc ee

nu nu H, H -> nu nu nu nu

nu nu H, H -> nu nu nu nu

Mass of lepton pair with mass closest to mZ:

The following also shows the jet pair mass for those that have mass closest to mW:

Note: Compared to last week plots and tables there was also a simple programming error which I've already fixed.

Plans:

  • just noticed that the preselection nTrks cut is on the PFO count and not the #charged tracks distribution shown so I will switch to
    using the charged tracks count in the preselection
  • may still be able to do better with the leptonic Z decay selection
    • high evis events with well reconstructed leptonic Z decays and a clear 6 jet topology (using y56 cut)
  • write report
  • No labels
