Jets, which are believed to represent the energies and directions of the emerging partons, are viewed by the experimenter as collimated distributions of hadrons. The momenta and angles of these hadrons must be combined to form the parent jet. Because of measurement resolutions and the unavoidable presence of backgrounds, a jet is thus dependent on the precise nature of the combination algo- rithm. This thesis studies a new type of jet algorithm and, in particular, investigates its dependence on the energy and pseudorapidity scales of the DO detector. For my parents, Eleanor 0.

Academic institutions are divided into disciplines which focus on various aspects of this. Since we inhabit a physical universe and are physical beings ourselves, it follows that we have the various branches of physical science. In particular, Elementary Particle Physics is the study of the fundamental building blocks of matter and the forces which govern their behavior. At present, four forces are believed to dictate all physical interactions: gravity, electromagnetism, the weak force and the strong force. The current Standard Model theory encompasses all but gravity. 1.1 Fundamental Constituents of Matter In Aristotle’s day, all matter was believed to be made up of four elements: earth, wind, fire and water. In Medieval times, a few of the Chemical elements were recog- 1 nized. 1i discox'err number i. proposal could be f Thrm: unit of n; belim'rd I inadequan quantized The yo. Physics.

By the 19th century, about 30 chemical elements were identified and it was discovered that the combinations of these elements could account for the profuse number of chemical compounds found in nature. In the early 1800’s, John Dalton proposed that the chemical elements are composed of units (atoms) of matter which could be characterized by their weight. Throughout most of the 1800’s, the atom was considered to be the fundamental unit of matter. By the turn of the century, the electron had been discovered and believed to be an essential part of atomic structure, but classical theories proved inadequate to describe this structure. In 1900, Max Planck introduced the idea of quantized radiation and quantum theory was born [1, 2]. The years that followed saw huge advances in both theoretical and experimental physics. In 1905, Albert Einstein put forth his theory of special relativity and pro- posed a quantum of light behaving like a particle [4] (later to be named photon). This was received with much skepticism, but in 1916, Millikan published his results on the photoelectric effect confirming Einstein’s photon theory [5]. Doubt still lingered, but in 1923, Compton observed shifts in wavelengths in light scattering experiments which could only be explained using a photon theory of light. In the same spirit, de Broglie considered the possibility that if something previously thought to have only wave attributes could also behave as a particle, than perhaps particles could behave like waves. Shortly after Compton’s experiments, de Broglie proposed the wave property of matter and a couple of years later Schroedinger developed wave mechanics for describing quantum systems for bosons. Meanwhile, physicists were also making progress in their understanding of atomic structure ford). per large seat I nucleus 1}. the first t. . a quantur: formulate In 193i; and proton and the no physics he Observed a: Mode] the( and strong In 192: and SDGcia eXiSlence ( Charged. b91019. am EngrimeI T139 (V 166, pdulj tierm: I structure. Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden (under the supervision of Ernest Ruther- ford), performed experiments in 1909 scattering alpha particles off a gold foil. The large scattering angles they observed suggested a small, dense, positively charged nucleus in atoms. It wasn’t until a decade later that Rutherford was able to find the first evidence of the existence of the proton. In 1913, Niels Bohr constructed a quantum theory of atomic structure, and then, several years later, in 1925, Pauli formulated the exclusion principle for electrons in atoms. In 1930, there were believed to be three elementary particles: photons, electrons and protons. However, theoretical and experimental developments implied otherwise, and the next few decades proved to be one of the most exciting periods in particle physics history. A plethora of new particles were predicted and/or experimentally observed and some of the most fundamental building blocks of the current Standard Model theory were established, namely, the Dirac equation and the theories of weak and strong interactions. In 1928, Dirac was able to describe electrons combining quantum mechanics and special relativity. After a few years, he realized that his equation implied the existence of a new particle that is identical to the electron except that it is positively charged. He called it a positron. No one had ever conceived of an antiparticle before and this turned out to be an important discovery. The positron was later experimentally observed in cosmic ray experiments in 1932. The continuous energy spectrum seen in beta decay experiments in the late 1920’s led Pauli to suggest that an additional particle, a neutrino, carried away the missing energy. Following that, Fermi introduced the weak interaction to describe beta decay quark using Pu this was ' proton p1 The r. In 1931. < structure.

This was another notable moment in our history because this was the first theory to imply particle flavor changes (e.g. neutron changing to a proton plus electron plus neutrino). The road to our current understanding of strong interactions was not so smooth. In 1931, Chadwick discovered the neutron, but as more was learned about nuclear structure, the mechanisms of nuclear binding became more obscure. Around 1934, Yukawa put forth a theory combining relativity and quantum theory to describe the strong interactions in the nucleus. He introduced a mediator particle called the pion and estimated its mass to be about 200 times that of the electron. In 1937, a particle with approximately this mass was discovered in cosmic ray experiments. Of course, it was thought to be the pion, but it was much later (1946) that it was actually discovered to be a muon. The muon was quite unexpected as it is the first time a second generation of matter was observed, and the famous phrase was uttered, “Who ordered that?” (by I. I. Rabi). Soon after the muon was revealed, however, the pion was also observed in cosmic rays. In the following decade, a proliferation of particles was observed, and in electron- nuclei scattering experiments in the mid 1950’s, a charge density distribution was seen in protons and neutrons suggesting an internal structure to nucleons. In 1964, Cell-Mann and Zweig theorized the existence of three elementary particles called quarks [6, 7]. The up, d0wn and strange quarks are fermions with charges of +§, -§ and -% respectively. Many new particles could be described as combinations of these quarks. For example, the proton is composed of two up quarks and one down quark and the neutron is composed of two down quarks and one up quark. The third quark. $1 In ex; 1960's. el inside prt the data , as parton and supp» hleanxt ideathat t the [1" an a theory 11 QXiStence ll") acts 2 the W’Ctor l The ”2+. n At this 1 lhmr} deg“ appeared in be palrpd W GelLMann I quark, strange, was used to build some of the more exotic particles. In experiments at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in the late 1960’s, electrons scattered off protons appeared to be bouncing off of hard cores inside protons. Bjorken and Feynman used a constituent particle model to interpret the data [3]. Although they did not refer to the constituent particles as quarks (but as partons), this provided supporting evidence that the proton is a composite particle and supported the quark theory. Meanwhile, Schwinger, Bludman and Glashow independently came up with the idea that the weak interactions are mediated by charged heavy particles (later named the W+ and W"), and in 1967, Weinberg and Salam (again independently) developed a theory that unified the electromagnetic and weak interactions. They suggested the existence of a neutrally charged vector boson, Z”, which (in addition to the W+, W‘) acts as a mediator of weak interactions. In an effort to explain the masses of the vector bosons, they also introduced a massive scalar boson called the Higgs, H. The W+, W", and 2° bosons were all observed in 1983, but the Higgs has yet to be observed and remains a major missing piece of the current theory. At this point, the current electroweak theory was pretty well developed, but the theory describing strong interactions needed some modification. Because the leptons appeared in pairs, e and V3 and p and u”, it was theorized that the quarks would behave in a similar manner and the charm quark (+§ charge) was introduced to be paired with the strange (the other pair being the up and down). Fritzsch and Cell-Mann put forth the theory of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). This theory is similar to electroweak theory.

Evidence for gluons was first experimentally observed in 1979 in electron positron collisions. In 1974, the J/\II was discovered at Brookhaven/SLAC by Ting/Richter [8, 9]. The J/‘Il is composed of a charm and an anti-charm. The addition of the charm quark implied the existence of a group of new particles which were subsequently observed. The charm quark, itself, was observed in 1976. With the success of the 2 generation theory, the possibilities of there existing 3 third generation of quarks and leptons was theorized, and, sure enough, the Tau lepton was discovered in 1976 at SLAC and the bottom and top quarks were observed at Fermilab in 1977 and in 1995 respectively [10]. Today, the tan neutrino, VT, and the Higgs boson, H, are the only particles of the Standard Model theory that have not been experimentally observed. Strong evidence for the existence of the Tau neutrino exists while the Higgs remains somewhat more elusive. For the past 20 years the Standard Model theory has proven itself to be remark- ably stable. No experimental measurement to date contradicts it. However, the theory is not complete for it cannot account for the masses of the fermions and it does not accommodate gravity. It is defined by 18 parameters making it somewhat unwieldy, and only the electromagnetic and weak interactions are unified. Several theoretical models are being developed with a view toward completeness and unifi- cation of the 4 forces, electromagnetic, weak, strong and gravitational.

Perhaps, as our measurements become more precise and we are able explore regions of phase space previously unavailable, we will see phenomena inconsistent with the current theory and this will guide us in a new direction. 1.2 The Thesis Most of today’s particle physics experiments are similar in principle to Rutherford’s experiment scattering alpha particles off of a gold foil. Particles are collided at high energies (either using two colliding beams or a beam focused on a fixed target) and the interactions are studied by examining the outcome. This thesis involves data from an experiment in which protons and antiprotons are collided at extremely high energies. The high energy is needed in order to study the constituent quarks and gluons that make up the proton and antiproton. When the pair collide, typically, 2 or 3 jets of particles emerge and are detected. Whether there are 2 or 3 jets detected is closely related to the strength of the strong interaction. The original intent of this thesis was to perform a measurement of the ratio of events with 3 jets to 2 jets, R32. This would give us a better understanding of the nature of the strong force. We are able to look at interactions with center of mass energies much higher than what has previously been looked at. To make an experimental measurement of R32, a tool had to be developed and calibrated. This task, while meritorious in itself, has diverted much effort away from the intended measurement and, therefore, that analysis is left outstanding. What is presented here is the work done developing and calibrating the kl jet algorithm 7 along tr: The ' | bllPl OW durtion 1 a deserh finding a erahle lip its derive. measurer: along with some very preliminary results for our measurement of R32. The thesis is organized in the following way. In the following chapter, we give a brief overview of the Standard Model theory. Following that, we describe jet pro- duction in pp , physics and motivate the measurement of R32. Chapter 4 contains a description of the experimental apparatus, and in Chapter 5, we will discuss jet finding algorithms. The momentum calibration of jets in the detector is a consid- erable task requiring much attention, and, therefore, five Chapters are devoted to its derivation, testing, and summary. Finally, we will present a very preliminary measurement of R32.

Quarks and leptons are fermions (spin 1/2 particles) and, within these groups, there are 3 generations. The three generations are identical except for their masses. Most matter is comprised of the first (lightest) generations (up and down quarks and electrons).

The current Standard Model theory encompasses all but gravity. In the Standard Model theory, interactions are described in the framework of the U(1) xSU(2) L xSU(3) gauge group. The electromagnetic and weak forces are unified in the electroweak gauge, U(1) xSU(2)L, and the strong force is described under SU(3). The forces are mediated by the exchange of the vector bosons corresponding to the symmetries of the group as shown in Table 2.3. One scalar Higgs boson, H, is predicted (shown in Table 2.4). Its existence is not yet confirmed, but it is necessary to account for the masses of the Wi and Z0 vector bosons in the present theory. What is presented here is a very minimal view of the Standard Model theory. For a more rigorous description the reader is directed to the references, [16, 17, 18, 19,20,21] 2.1 Electroweak Interactions The electromagnetic and weak interactions are unified in the Standard Model under the gauge group, U(1) xSU(2)L. U( 1) symmetry implies conservation of hypercharge, Y, and under SU(2)L, isospin, T, is conserved. Electric charge, Q, is related to these by Q = T 3 + g where T3 is the third component of isospin. Therefore, Q is also conserved in the electroweak gauge. The subscript, L, denotes that the SU(2) group acts only upon the left handed component of the field. No right handed neutrinos have been observed. The group acts on left handed doublets and right handed 11 sngen h The (pin?

The couplings between the different quark generations are rare and, therefore, the off diagonal CKM matrix elements are << 1. In the vacuum (ground state), the U(1)xSU(2)L Lagrangian requires the four gauge bosons to be massless. The symmetry of the ground state must be sponta- neously broken to account for the masses of the W+, W’ and Z0 bosons. This is done through the Higgs mechanism. The result is the scalar Higgs boson and in addition to mass, the W and Z bosons gain a longitudinal polarization component. 12 The by 3 fur; g'. and t are give: and and 511’ . The masses of the mediators and the strength of the interactions are determined by 3 fundamental parameters: the weak isospin coupling, gw, hypercharge coupling, 9’, and the vacuum expectation value for spontaneous symmetry breaking, 12.

Under SU(3) symmetry, color charge is conserved. Each quark carries one of three color indices, 7”, g, b = red, green, blue), and an octet of gluons carry color anti-color charge. The group acts on color triplets for each of the six quarks. The gluon octet can be expressed in the following color states: II) = (75 + MW?

Leptons (and their respective neutrinos) do not carry color and, therefore, they do not participate in strong interactions. Only quarks and gluons interact via the strong force. The gluons are massless and one parameter, the strong coupling, 9,, describes the interactions. In a similar manner to the weak couplings of the W:t and Z0 bosons, the gluons are self coupling. 2.3 The Running of the Couplings The strengths of electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions are quantified by their respective coupling constants. The strength of the electromagnetic force is defined by the Fine Structure Constant, am (Equation 2.4), and the weak and strong coupling constants, aw and 07,, are given by aw = 3% and as = 219% . (2.11) The strengths of the forces depend on the distance between the interacting par- ticles and, therefore, these so called constants vary. For the electromagnetic force, this can be understood if we imagine that the vacuum acts like a dielectric medium. As the separation between two charged fermions increases, fermion antifermion pairs (e.g. e+e") begin to pop up in the vacuum. These pairs screen the bare charges and give an effective charge that is somewhat reduced. This is referred to as vacuum polarization. In Figure 2.2(a), this is depicted in a Feynman diagram.

In the cases of the weak and strong forces, matters are complicated by the self coupling of the force mediators. In addition to fermion loops, we have W*, Z 0, and gluon loops (see Figure 2.2(b) and 2.2(c). These compete with the fermion loops so that the forces actually decrease as energy increases (wavelength decreases). This was a very important discovery in QCD physics because the quarks, while inseparable at low energy (known as confinement), behave as free particles at very high energies. This is referred to as asymptotic freedom. 17 234 ill Clib‘ over 11": for an interes' ‘ have [it 1119 par Ohhtts and str study (l Where I. bl" 23, alder andom Coupling: Etc. ]. 1“ 1h 2.4 Cross Sections In classical physics, the cross section for a given interaction is defined as the area over which the desired interaction can take place. For example, the cross section for an arrow hitting a target is the area of the target. The interactions we are interested in, however, are not simply “hit or miss” interactions. Particles do not have to “touch” to interact. In these interactions, it may be more useful to imagine the particles as fields (electroweak and / or strong fields) rather than hard point like objects. Since the forces span to infinity, the absolute cross sections for electroweak and strong interactions are infinite. To make some quantitative sense out of this, we study differential cross sections, do, for various kinematical cuts. This is defined as Zn 2 do = thl x (phase space) , (2.12) where h is the reduced Planck’s constant, h/27r = 6.5822 x 10‘22MeVsec, divided by 27r, M is the amplitude (or matrix element). The phase space term contains all the kinematic constraints (e.g. masses, energies and momenta of the incoming and outgoing particles). This is handled by integrating over the 4 momenta of the outgoing particles (in the kinematic region of interest) with a delta function included to ensure conservation of 4 momentum. The matrix element contains the meat of the calculation. This contains all the dynamical information about the interactions (e.g. coupling strengths, vacuum polarization, 4 momenta of the internal propagators, etc.). In the case of pp collisions, the matrix element is complicated by the fact that 18 protor. for on betwet in ‘2 or mmflt cont irxl where } parton- for thi~ defines i and T elt’mert' Where ( $fl9w] pTOCESS functio (aflliprc th men’s? 1 hard Se; Th9 5(7); protons and antiprotons are composite particles made of partons (a generic term for quarks and gluons). We are interested in pp collisions in which an interaction between one parton in the proton and one parton in the antiproton interact resulting in 2 or more hard (i.e. energetic) partons emerging at large angles with respect to the collision axis. The remnant partons which did not take place in the hard interaction continue along the collision axis. An example of this is illustrated in Figure 2.3 where partons i and j (in the proton and antiproton respectively) interact producing partons j and k (plus the proton and antiproton remnants). The matrix element for this interaction can be factorized into two parts: the scattering amplitude which defines the hard process, 6(2', j —> k,l), and the probability that we find partons i and j in the proton and antiproton respectively, f,- (fj). With this, the matrix element can be expressed as Mi,j—>k,l = fi($i,Q2,MF)fj($j,Q2,l1F)&(iij —> kit) , (2-13) where Q2 is the momentum transfer in the hard process, and up is the factorization scale which defines the separation between interactions calculated as part of the hard process and what gets absorbed into f, and fj. f, (f,) are called parton distribution functions (PDFs) which tell us the probability that parton i (j) carrying proton (antiproton) momentum fraction, at,- (5'37), will participate in the interaction. Richard Feynman developed a method to calculate the scattering matrix ele- ments, 6. Using his diagrams, be devised a set of rules with which to calculate the hard scattering amplitude, 6. A full explanation of the Feynman calculus is beyond the scope of this thesis. So we will point out just a few notable features and direct 19 the tea o .1 0:1 0R ar ‘ Ar fer ——> remnants Figure 2.3: Factorization of the pp matrix element. the reader to any one of the references, [18, 16, 17, 19, 20], for further enlightenment. 0 At each vertex, 4 momentum must be conserved.

(b) 1 Loop (O(a§)) diagram 2.5 Renormalization and the Strong Coupling, as In calculating the contributions from internal loops in Feynman diagrams, integrals over loop momenta lead to divergences at very small momenta. To eliminate these, additional parameters are introduced through a regularization procedure. This al- lows us to write the divergent terms in some well-defined way (they still diverge in some limit of the regularization parameters). The divergences are then removed by absorbing them into the definitions of the physical quantites. Thereby, the theory is renormalized. This has the side effect of introducing a new parameter, MR, with units of energy. The exact renormalization procedure is arbitrary, but all must lead to the same observables. Therefore, the renormalization scale, [13, plays an important role in comparisons between theory and experiment. In this thesis, we will confine the discussion to predictions using the modified minimum subtraction scheme [22], M S . The running of the strong coupling constant, as, is determined by the renormal- ization group equation, 6a, 2 Q 8622 = Mas) - (2.15) where Q is the energy scale of the hard interaction.

Experimentally, a, has been measured for Q2 values ranging from 1.5 GeV to 130 GeV. These different values are compared by scaling each value to the mass of the Z 0.

Most often, these collisions result in sprays of highly energetic particles (called jets). In this chapter, we will discuss the physics specific to jet production in pp collisions. We begin with a quick view of a typical event in pp collisions which produces jets. Next, we define the variables used to define the kinematics of such events. Then, we give a brief description of the Monte Carlo event generators we use to test our methods and compare our results to theoretical predictions. Finally, we will discuss the motivation behind the measurement of the ratio of events with 3 or more jets to events with 2 or more jets, R32. 25 par ant pai‘. intt par 3H1} ETPE and m PC pTUr 3.1 pp Collisions So far, we have considered only simple 2 -—> 2 particle reactions. What we actually observe in proton antiproton collisions is much more complex. When a proton and an antiproton collide at very high energies, their composite particles behave almost independently of one another such that only two partons (one from the proton and one from the antiproton) will most likely take part in the interaction. Two or more partons emerge from the interaction along with the remnants of the proton and antiproton. Immediately, these outgoing partons radiate gluons and/or produce pairs of quarks and antiquarks in a shower of partons. Then, the partons recombine into colorless composite particles (hadrons). The results of the collision are jets of particles. Let us consider an interaction where a quark from a proton interacts with a gluon from an antiproton. The Feynman diagram for the interaction is shown in Figure 3.1. Figures 3.2 and 3.3 depict the interaction at 3 different levels before and after the collision respectively. Before the collision, we have a proton and antiproton at the hadronic level (Figure 3.2a). If we look a little closer, we see that the proton and antiproton are made up of a sea of quarks and gluons (Figure 3.2b). At the most elemental level, two partons, a quark and a gluon, take part in the hard interaction and the others do not participate (Figure 3.2c). After the collision, two partons emerge from the hard process (Figure 3.3a). Im- mediately, the quark and gluon begin to radiate gluons and quark-antiquark pairs producing a shower of partons (Figure 3.3b). These partons fragment further, re- 26 Figure 3.1: Feynman diagram for qg —-) qg by gluon exchange. a). “d V 11 "6| b). - ’U. ‘ v17 ‘ a d ~ ~ fi///% 1 gt c). u. = g Figure 3.2: A quark from a proton interacts with a gluon from an antiproton (before).

Because 77 is defined by the polar angle, 0, it is much more easily measured than the real rapidity, y. Hence, the kinematic variables used are transverse momentum, PT, the azimuthal angle, (,0, and pseudorapidity, 7]. For historical reasons, we often refer to the transverse momentum, PT as “ET ”. 3.3 Monte Carlo Event Generators We will describe two types of Monte Carlo event generators. The Jetrad [23] and Herwig [24, 25] event generators provide good examples of both types and are the 30 [E h most frequently used in jet physics at D0. As the parton shower develops, the available energy gets dispersed among the partons. This causes the strong coupling to strengthen ((1, increases) and the radia- tion becomes soft and/ or collinear. Perturbation theory requires the coupling to be small and, therefore, at a certain point, the shower development cannot be calculated analytically. At present, the matrix element for p13 collisions can be calculated exactly to C(03). The J etrad [23] Monte Carlo is one such event generator. It includes tree level Feynman diagrams with 2 and 3 final state partons (no loops) and the interference terms between the 2 parton final state diagrams with and without an internal loop. An example of contributing Feynman diagrams is shown in Figure 3.5. The Jetrad event generator includes at most 3 final state partons (evolution to hadrons is not modeled) . It is also possible to rearrange the terms in the calculation so that soft/collinear radiation terms are resummed and included in the matrix element. This calculation, however, breaks down when the radiation is hard and produced at large angles. Thus, it is not possible to combine the two techniques into one calculation that would cover the full range of hard and soft parton splitting. The Herwig Monte Carlo event generator uses a resummation calculation evolved from a 2 ——) 2 matrix element to predict the parton shower. In addition to this, the process where partons recombine to form colorless hadrons (called hadronization) is not well understood. It is approximated using a fragmen- tation function which gives the probability of finding a given hadron with some 31 FiSure MOrlte Slate pa diaglam is negle< I>r~vm . |>w<+ (a2) . 2n. >~m2<| l>m 2 parton level, there are two energetic partons well separated in d), and there is little ambiguity even as the jet evolves through parton showering and hadronization. At 0(a3), there can be 3 final state partons. Recall that the calculation breaks down for soft and /or collinear radiation. Therefore, jets must be defined in such a way so that they will be insensitive to these splittings. Quantities which are insensitive to soft/collinear radiation are often re- ferred to as infrared safe quantities. An ideal jet algorithm recombines soft /collinear splittings. The specific jet definition determines which splittings are recombined, and, therefore, the theoretical calculation for a given cross section depends on the choice of jet definition. In Chapter 5, we will discuss two jet algorithms employed at DQ: the fixed cone and kl algorithms. 33 l I!

Likewise, the lowest order 2 jet cross section is proportional to of, 0io(Q2,#, J) = 03(Q2,M)Bz(Q2, J) ~ (3-4) At lowest order, therefore, the ratio of cross sections for 3 and 2 jet events, R32 is proportional to as, 0'20 __ 03(Q2: J) 0 _ R342 — 0&0 " 82(Q2,J)a3(Q2’u) ' (35) This makes it possible to extract a value of a, from an experimental measurement of R32 given the constant terms, C3 and .82. At this time, the theoretical calculation for R32 is not available at anything other than leading order. It is only a matter of time before theorists will be able to calculate next-to—leading order 3 jet cross section, and we can begin to speculate as to the method of extraction based on what is available for the next-to—leading order 2 jet cross section calculation. At next to lowest order, we can define an inclusive cross section for 2 jets (events 34 Cl \l' [(1] UN where there are 2 or more final state partons).

It also provides information regarding multiple interactions occurring in a single bunch crossing and it measures the instantaneous luminosity. 49 Level 1 and Level 1.5 The level 1 trigger is divided into two components: muon and calorimeter. The muon trigger simply triggers on the number of muon tracks. If an event passes the level 1 muon trigger, a level 1.5 decision is made based on the transverse momentum of the muon. This creates a detector deadtime of one bunch crossing. The calorimeter level 1 trigger makes fast sums of energy in towers in the calorime- ter of 0.2 x 0.2 in n x 4). Several different reference sets are used to define energy cuts on the trigger towers in various sections of the calorimeter. There are also reference sets for energy summed in large groups of trigger towers. These are called large tiles and cover regions of 0.8 x 1.6 in n x o. After an event passes levels 1 and/or 1.5, it is passed to the level 2 system. Level 2 The level 2 system is a farm of 50 VAXstation 4000/60 processors running identical executables which attempt to reconstruct each event. If the event is deemed worthy by the level 2 software, the detector information and run conditions are written to a disk buffer and eventually transferred to tape. 4.2.6 Offline Reconstruction The raw data on tape is taken to another facility at Fermilab for processing. A large software package has been developed which reconstructs the data (RECO). The RECO software uses calibration information obtained from test beam data and 50 (lat art'- tt'iti various algorithms to piece together physical objects such as photons, electrons, jets, muons, etc, from the raw detector data. Jets are reconstructed using the fixed cone jet finding algorithm. It; jets must be reconstructed in a separate package after the data has been processed through RECO. The kl and fixed cone jet finding algorithms are described in Chapter 5. All of the data used in this thesis used data reconstructed with version 12 of the reconstruction software (RECO v12). 51 9m I.) A . Chapter 5 The k_l_ and Cone Jet Algorithms In Chapter 3, we discussed jet production in mi collisions. We showed an event display in which two jets of hadrons deposited their energy in the DO detector (Figure 3.4). Shown in Figure 5.1 is the same event displayed in a 3 dimensional lego plot. The a: and y axes represent 17 and 45 coordinates shown in units of calorimeter towers, IETA and IPHI (a calorimeter tower equals 0.1 x 0.1 in n x (b). The vertical axis shows the amount of energy deposited in the towers and we see two large clusters of energy in the central part of the region along with some smaller clusters at large absolute values of IETA. In order to relate these clusters of energy to a simple partonic interaction, we employ jet algorithms to reconstruct the parton momenta from the energy deposited in the calorimeter. We present here two jet finding algorithms used to analyze DO data: the fixed cone and the [Cl jet algorithms. Compared to the fixed cone algorithm, the kj algorithm is more amenable to jet counting, and, therefore, we use It; jets to measure R32. The fixed cone algorithm was established prior to the 52 LEGO car. cup mom-1993 10:23pm 57023 Event 25191543201992 03:15 Max ET I 137.2 GOV [ms QHADE MhE=1.GeV ENERGY CAEP ETA-PHI Figure 5.1: Lego plot of a 2 jet event as seen by the DO detector.

So we will begin our discussion with a brief description of the cone jet finding algorithm. The focus of this thesis is the implementation and calibration of the kj jet algorithm. So we will give a more detailed account of the Is; jet algorithm. 5.1 The Fixed Cone Jet Algorithm The fixed cone algorithm defines a jet by the sum of the 4—momenta contained in a fixed cone of radius, R, in n—qfi space (see Figure 5.2). In other words, the 4-momenta of all particles with AR < R are included, AR.- = t/(m — 7].-)2 + (cm - a)? < R. (5.1) where m and (15} is define the center of the jet cone and n,- and a5,- give the position of a 4-vector inside the cone. Cone jets are found using an iterative procedure at DC in the following way [36]. Figure 5.2: Fixed cone jet. 54 1. One starts with a list of 4-momenta describing partons, hadrons, or energy deposited in a detector. 2. A reasonably high PT particle is chosen as a beginning (called a seed). 3. A cone of radius R in 17 -— <15 is drawn around the seed axis. 4. A new jet axis is found defined by the PT weighted 77 and (b of the particles in the cone, 2;; mph n=————— and oi: Z?=1¢iPTi ET ' a am where ET is defined as the scalar sum of the PT of the particles inside the cone, fi=iap (m) i=1 5. Steps 3 and 4 are repeated (substituting the new jet axis for the seed axis) until a stable jet axis is found. 6. The n, and (b of the jet are redefined by n = — ln (tan (3)) and ¢ = tan‘1 (5%) , (5-4) where aum%%),m=23,mia=zgp (m) i=1 i=1 Infrequently, two jets may be found with cones that overlap. In such cases, a split/merge criterion must be applied to decide if the jets should be merged into one jet or divided into two jets. At DC the jets are merged if the shared energy is less 55 than 50% of the ET of the lower ET jet. Otherwise, the shared energy is divided between the two jets and their ET 77, and qfi are recalculated as in step 6. It was mentioned in Chapter 3 that at present, the matrix element is calculated to C(02) only. In such calculations (e.g. Jetrad Monte Carlo events), there can be at most 2 partons produced, and at most, 2 partons can be included in a jet. In such cases, it is possible that the two partons are separated by some distance, r, in 1) — 45 space such that R < r < 2R. Using the iterative method described above, the two partons will not be combined into a single jet. After parton showering and hadronization, however, it is possible that they will be merged into a single jet. We introduce an additional parameter, Rsep. Then, we combine the two partons if they are within Rm, x R of one another (typically Rsep ~ 1.2 — 1.3). The Rm parameter is tuned to match what is seen experimentally in the splitting and merging of jets. The prescription where the jet axis is defined by the PT weighted center and the jet ET is defined by scalar summed PT (step 4) is known as the Snowmass recombination scheme. It was agreed upon as the standard recombination scheme for fixed cone jets during the Summer Study on High Energy Physics in Snowmass, Colorado, in 1990. The final jet 7] and 45 definitions (step 6) were found to give better agreement between Herwig Monte Carlo jets at the parton shower, hadron, and detector levels and are therefore used in the DO implementation of the fixed cone algorithm. 56 Figure 5.3: ki jet clustering. 57 ll ('0. in 5.2 Clustering Algorithms for e+e‘Collisions Unlike the cone jet finding algorithm described above, clustering algorithms begin by considering individual pairs of particles. We start with a list of 4-vectors describing partons, hadrons or detector information. The pairs of particles are evaluated based on some closeness criterion in phase space and the closest pair is merged into a single 4—vector. The merged particle is compared to all the other particles and the process is repeated until some stopping criteria has been satisfied. This is illustrated in Figure 5.3 and the basic steps in e+e“clustering algorithms are as follows. 1. For each pair of particles, 2' and j, we calculate some closeness function, y,,-. 2. The minimum ymm of all yij is found. 3. ymin is compared to some parameter, gm. 4. If gm,“ < you, particles 2' and j are removed from the list of 4-vectors and merged into a new pseudo particle, k. ykj is calculated for all other particles and we return to step 2. 5. If ymin > you, then clustering stops and we are left with a list of jets. The first of such algorithms was introduced by the JADE collaboration [37, 38]. In this algorithm, the closeness function is the scaled invariant mass, M,-,-2 2 Evis ycut > M3” = 58 where Em is the visible energy of the event. The pair mass is calculated for massless particles as Mi]? 33- 2EiEj (1 - COS 6,1) (5.7) where 9,5 is the angular separation. This can result in “fake” jets when many soft particles belonging to unrelated parton showers are combined. This is illustrated in Figure 5.4a where clustering begins by combining 4—vectors, 1 and 2, resulting in 4-vector, a. Since the algorithm is sensitive to soft radiation, it is not infrared safe (as was discussed in Chapter 3). >0: M (a) - - -’ a (b) I I I l l I I I I I V b Figure 5.4: Jet Clustering in e+e‘Collisions.

It was noticed that by simply replacing EiEJ‘ in the invariant mass equation (5.7) by min(E§,EJZ), the problem would be solved. Soft particles would be merged with their nearest energetic neighbor instead of with other soft particles. This is illustrated in Figure 5.4b where 4—vectors, 3 and 5, are combined into 4-vector, b.

(5.8) Thus, it was dubbed the hi algorithm with kl as the new closeness parameter. 5.3 Adaptation of the kl Algorithm for pp Collisions The event structure in pp collisions differs from e+e‘ collisions and this results in some modification of the kl jet definition. The variables used to assign particles (final state partons, hadrons or calorimeter cells) to jets in e+e’ physics are the energies, E, and the polar and azimuthal angles, 0 and gt. In pp collisions, the cm. frame of the hard process is often moving with respect to the lab frame. Thus, the variables used must be boost invariant along the beam axis, ET 2 PT, 17 and d). k 1 can be expressed in terms of boost invariant quantities in the following way 60 ll ill be prt ha sta inc Sht' jet. ant SCa for pairs of massless particles: k1,:‘j2 '5 2 min (Eng, ET,j2) [0051] (Hi — 771‘) “ (303015 — 453)] - (5-9) As A17, Art ——> 0, it can be expressed as kid]? E min (ETJ'2, E7132) R2 (5.10) ij’ where Rf]- : A772 + A452. In e+e‘ collisions, essentially all of the hadrons in the final state are thought to be associated with final state partons in the hard scattering process. In collisions producing high ET jets, all particles should be assigned to a jet. The final state hadrons in pp collisions, on the other hand, are associated not only with the final state partons in the hard scattering process, but with radiation from partons in the incident pp pair as well as the remnants of the pp . Therefore, not all the particles should be assigned to the high ET jets, but many may be associated with the beam jets (pp remnants). In addition to this, the c.m. energy of the hard process (defined as \/§) is variable and unknown. In the Durham algorithm described above, the closeness function is scaled by visible energy in the event, y” _ k1 ij 1] — a Evis (5.11) and the stopping parameter, ywt, is dimensionless. Since Em, (J5) is not known in pp collisions, we must provide an alternative prescription for stopping the clustering. 61 A few different modifications have been suggested to adapt the Durham algorithm for use in pp collisions [41, 40]. The 1:; algorithm we have implemented at DC is based on the algorithm suggested by Ellis and Soper in [41]. Below we describe the k_L algorithm we have implemented at DC. 5.4 k_[_ Jets at DC Before jets are reconstructed, a preclustering of calorimeter cells is performed [42]. The kl algorithm is an 0(n3) algorithm (i.e. for n particles, ~ n3 calculations must be performed) and it is desirable to reduce the ~6000 calorimeter cells in an average event without severely affecting the physics results. In preclustering, calorimeter cells are first added into towers in the calorimeter. Towers with ET <0.2 GeV have their ET redistributed in neighboring towers. The amount of ET added to neighboring tower ET is weighted by the neighboring tower ET . Then, all towers within 0.2 of each other in n — qi space are combined. The ET redistribution and tower merging is done using scalar ET addition (subtraction in the case of negative ET ). In order to have a consistent comparison to jets at the parton and hadron level, we also perform the preclustering prior to jet reconstruction of partons and hadrons. There, parton and hadron 4 vector information takes the place of the calorimeter towers. After the preclustering is performed, we apply a jet reconstruction algorithm. The jet algorithm we employ does not use a cutoff parameter, ya“. Instead, particles are combined until all objects are separated n — (1) space by some value Ru? > D2. (5.12) 62 where z' and j are jets constructed by successively combining particles. The kl jet recombination procedure is as follows. 1. For each pair of particles (preclusters), z' and j, we calculate the function a)? m,- = minimum (Em-2, Em?) 732— (5.13) where D = 1. Then we define for each particle, 2', di = ETJ'2. (5.14) 2. The minimum dmin of all the d,- and d,,- is found. 3. If dun-n is a d,,-, particles 1' and j are merged into a new, pseudo-particle It: with ET,k=PT,k: P2,k+P1ik’ 1: _ P, 77,, = —ln (tan 9f), and d1), = tan 1%, with four vector Pl," 2 R” + Pj“, and 0,, = cos‘1 5335. (5.15) kal 4. If dmin is a d, (i.e. 12,,-2 > D2 for all j ), then the particle is deemed not ”mergeable” and it is removed from the list of particles and placed in the list of jets. 5. Return to step 1. Repeat steps 1-5 until all particles have been merged into jets (i.e. joz > D2 for all ij ). The result is a list ofjets. It is possible to employ alternate recombination schemes in step 3. We have derived an energy scale only for the 4-vector recombination scheme described here. 63 The 4-vector recombination scheme, P1,“ = P,“+Pj", is the natural choice because it is consistent with 4-momentum conservation. As a jet evolves from a simple partonic interaction in the hard process to a shower of particles in the detector, its 4-momentum must be conserved. It is, therefore, most appropriate to reconstruct a jet’s momentum and energy by summing the 4-momenta of the constituents of the jet. Defining ET 2 PT (versus E sin0 or the scalar sum of ET of the constituents) was decided upon because the definition of transverse energy is somewhat ambiguous for jets with mass while transverse momentum, PT, is well defined and Lorentz invariant. The Snowmass recombination scheme merges particles 2' and j into pseudo-particle k with E13501 + Emile , and m = ET,i¢i + ET,i¢i Err ET; 9 . (5.16) Em: = Em + Em a 77]: = It was suggested as an approximation to 4-vector recombination because it expe- dites theoretical calculations using the cone jet algorithm. For theoretical kl jet calculations there is no such advantage. We define D=1.0 partly because this roughly corresponds to R=0.7 in the cone jet algorithm. D=1.0 was also seen to give fairly stable results in jet rate studies on Herwig Monte Carlo data comparing jets reconstructed from the parton shower, final state hadrons, and calorimeter cells. Ellis and Soper examined the inclusive jet cross section for 100 GeV jet ET and In] < 0.7 using both the Is; and cone jet algorithms [41]. At 0(a3), they found similar results for lei jets and cone jets setting D = 1.35 x ’R. In addition, D210 64 and R=0.7 reduce the renomalization/ factorization scale dependence, )1, for the k 1 and cone jet cross sections respectively. A Side Note on k] and Cone Jet Sizes It is difficult to compare the size of a k] jet to that of a fixed cone jet. Imagine a parton shower of 3 massless partons, all 3 at equal 77, equal momenta and separated by 0.7 (b. They will all be included in a R=0.7 cone jet, but the D=1.0 lei jet will only cluster two together. From this one may conclude a R=0.7 cone jet is bigger than a D=1.0 kl jet. Now, imagine a similar shower except this time the particle in the center is 4 times as energetic as the other two and now they are separated by 0.8 d). In this case, at most 2 will be included in a R=0.7 cone jet, but all three will be included in a D=1.0 kl jet. In this case, the kl jet appears to be bigger. It is difficult to extract any meaningful information from comparing kl jets to cone jets. What is more important is that we are able to compare our experimental results to theoretical predictions using the same jet algorithm. This is simply because a jet is defined by the algorithm employed. The kl jet algorithm can be applied at any level (partons, hadrons, calorimeter data) in exactly the same manner. Recall that cone jets needed an additional parameter, Rm, in order to compare to 0(a2) calculations. kL jets also have the feature that each 4-vector must be assigned to one and only one jet in the clustering procedure. This avoids adding additional split/merge criteria and makes the k_L jet algorithm more suitable for jet counting. 65 5.4.1 Monte Carlo Event Jet Rates When the kl jet finding procedure described above is concluded, we have a list of jets which are well separated in n — (,6 space. Many of these jets may be associated with the soft interactions between the remnants of the proton antiproton pair. They may also come from soft radiation from the partons involved in the hard interaction. The leading-order or next-to—leading order theory cannot accommodate this soft radiation, and if we include all the jets, we will not be able to extract a, as we described previously. Therefore, it is necessary to make a cut to remove low PT jets not associated with the hard process. The probability for a parton to radiate a gluon (or split into a quark antiquark pair) is governed by as. This splitting is a function of the fraction of the original parton’s momentum given to the radiated gluon (or quark antiquark pair). Therefore, we only count jets in an event if their PT is greater than some fraction of the hard scale. To define the hard scale, we sum the PT of the 3 highest PT jets in each event, HT31 3 HT3 = 2 PT,- . (5.17) i=1 Then, all jets with PT below some fraction times the hard scale (PT < fem x HT3) are dropped [44] , To choose a reasonable fraction cut, we study Herwig (version 5.8) Monte Carlo data. The Monte Carlo data is generated with 2 —> 2 parton ET thresholds of 30, 60, 120, and 240 GeV. It is processed through the SHOWERLIB [48] DO detector simulation. 66 Figure 5.5 shows fractional jet rates in Herwig Monte Carlo events as a function of the fraction cut, fem. We compare these rates for jets found after parton showering, hadronization, and detector simulation. If we set few too high (fem > 0.3), there are events where only one jet passes our cut. These are events where the leading jet carries about half the available event ET (P71 z H73 / 2) and the remaining half is divided roughly equally between the second and third jets (P12J3 z HT3/4). On the other hand, if we choose fwt to be small, we begin to include many jets and the agreement between the three levels begins to break down. So a reasonable choice for fem seems to be in the range 0.15 < fcut < 0.2. We use fwt = 0.15 because it gives us the largest signal for R32 in this range. 67 PERW G V5.3 CENERATED AT 30 GEV E.

Because a variety of studies will depend on this work, it is important that the correction we derive be widely applicable. It will also be useful to have an understanding of the individual uncertainties and correlations associated with the various aspects of the kl jet momentum calibration. Deriving a momentum correction for kl jets was an unexpectedly difficult as- signment and as a result, we were unable to complete our analysis of R32. In many ways, the calibration of the ki jet algorithm represents a much larger contribution to the field than the measurement of R32 (had we completed it). Many subsequent measurements will rely on the work decribed in the following chapters. We will give a general overview of the jet momentum scale for kl jets. In the 69 following two chapters, we will give a full description of the offset and jet response corrections. Following that, we will show the results of the Monte Carlo closure test that was performed to test the method, and, finally, we will present the final lei jet momentum scale correction with errors. 6.1 General Overview of kj Jet Momentum Cali- bration Almost all analyses involving the physics of jets attempt to relate the observed jets to a simple parton interaction. Precise calibration of measured jet momentum, therefore, is a priority. This is not a straightforward task as the evolution from partons to jets of hadrons to clusters of energy in the calorimeter is very complex and riddled with theoretical unknowns and detector effects. The jet momentum scale correction is an attempt to remove effects of the detector as well as the physics underlying event (momentum due to soft interactions between the remnant partons of the proton and antiproton). The goal is to approximate the sum of all the final state particle momenta incorporated into a jet resulting from the hard parton interaction. Hadronization effects are not corrected for here. The analysis described in the following chapters is an attempt only to correct jets to the particle (final state hadrons) level. The method for correcting kj jet momentum is done in two steps. First an offset is subtracted and then a response scaling factor is applied. This can be expressed 70 by the to where P using th the tale Bee; tion \Vll comet-ti derived 1138 the of jet 3 the OH: kl jets.

Because the definition of a jet is given by the algorithm employed, the calibra- tion will depend on the choice of jet algorithm. To a certain extent, however, the corrections can be derived generally. Previously, the jet energy scale correction was derived for jets defined by the fixed cone jet algorithm [45, 47, 46] and we are able to use the results of that study for detector effects that are independent of the choice of jet algorithm. We also use results of this study to test our method for measuring the offset and for extrapolation into regions of phase space where we lack data for kl jets. The cone jet energy scale is described in great detail in [45, 46]. Since much of the correction for It; jet momentum is based on that study, we will include it in our discussion emphasizing the material that is relevant to the kl jet momentum scale. From here on, we will refer to the established cone jet energy scale correction as CAFIX5.1 (Calorimeter Fix Package, version 5.1). 71 Chapter 7 kl Jet Offset Correction The purpose of the offset correction is to subtract from the reconstructed jet the transverse momentum which is not associated with the hard interaction itself. We divide this into two parts: the offset due to the physics underlying event, One, and the offset due to the experimental environment, 01b, such as noise, residual pile-up from previous pp crossings and multiple pp interactions. The underlying event contribution comes from soft interactions between the rem- nant partons of the pp pair which did not take part in the hard interaction. The noise contribution arises because the average energy of the individual cells is not zero (even in the absence of beam) due to uranium decay and electronic noise. Although this is corrected on average by pedestal subtraction, there remains an effect due to zero suppression of cells at readout combined with a non symmetric noise distribution (for further details see [46, 51]). Pile-up is the residual contribution from previous pp crossings. It results from the long shaping time associated with the preamplification stage. The base line 72 subtractor (BLS) samples the signal before the event and subtracts this amount. The signal from previous crossings continues to decay after this sampling, and, therefore, a residual correction is needed for a more accurate removal of the pile—up effects. The Luminosity has some effect on the amount of signal produced by previous pp crossings and therefore, residual pile-up will depend on luminosity. The multiple interaction contribution is due to soft interactions between other pp pairs that do not contribute to the hard collision. This also depends on luminosity. While pile-up and multiple interactions contributions to the offset are luminosity dependent, the noise and underlying event are not. In this Chapter, we present the offset correction to be applied to jets reconstructed with the kl algorithm. First, we will discuss the method, which is based on MC jets with DC data overlayed. To test the method, we performed some studies using the 0.7 cone jet algorithm. We compare the results obtained using our method to the previously obtained results from DC data [45, 46, 51]. This is shown in Appendix B. Finally, we present the results obtained for kl jet offsets, Oz), and One. To simulate the offset contribution to jets, we overlay DO data on Monte Carlo data that has been processed through a DO detector simulation. The Monte Carlo data do not include the physics underlying event and the detector simulation does not include the effects of noise. Neither are the effects of pile-up nor multiple interaction simulated in the Monte Carlo data. The overlayed D0 data contain these effects, and the offsets are measured by comparing jets in the sample with no overlay to jets with the overlay. 73 7 .1 Monte Carlo Data With Overlay We use Herwig (version 5.9) Monte Carlo data generated with no underlying event. Monte Carlo data (no underlying event) is generated with 2 —) 2 parton ET thresh- olds of 30, 50, 75, 100 and 150 GeV. It is processed through the SHOWERLIB [48] detector simulation. Three different types of DO data are overlayed on Monte Carlo Data. They are: ZB zero bias data. ZBnoLQ zero bias data not passing the Level C trigger. MB minimum bias data. The zero bias data, ZB, have the least restrictive trigger requirements. The trigger requires only that a bunch crossing take place and the data are taken at random over a range of instantaneous luminosities, L. The ZBnoLO data are a subset of the ZB data with the requirement that the event did not pass the level 0 trigger. ZB data are taken for a range of instantaneous luminosities (.C = 0.1, 3, 5, 10 and 14 x103°cm'2sec‘1). The ZB data include the effects of noise, pile-up and multiple interactions. ZBnoLC and MB data are used only at low luminosity only (0.1 x103°cm’2sec‘1). ZBnoLO data includes the effects of noise and pile-up, and MB data, in addition to noise and pile-up, include the physics underlying event. At low luminosity, very few events pass the Level C trigger, and, therefore, ZB and ZBnoLO are almost identical. The DC data (ZB, ZBnoLQ, or MB) is added to the detector information in the 74 Monte Carlo SHOWERLIB data. As mentioned earlier (4.2.3), in data taking, cells with energy less than 20 of the pedestal value are zero suppressed (not read out). Therefore, the overlayed data are also zero suppressed (using 0.0 as the pedestal value). We also use the Monte Carlo sample with no overlay. In this case, the calorimeter cells are not zero suppressed prior to reconstruction. The overlayed and non-overlayed data are reconstructed using version 12 of the reconstruction package (RECO v12). Finally, we reconstruct kl jets from calorimeter cell information as described in section 5.4. At this time we do not have data covering all luminosities, all jet ET and all jet 1]. Shown in Table 7.1 is a summary of the data used in this thesis.

(7.2) These subtractions are performed on a jet by jet basis, for the two leading jets. We ensure the same jet is selected in both samples by requesting them to be within a distance of 0.5 in n - 45 space. Figure 7.1 shows the distribution of distances, Run-n = [(91525 — 4533? + (7725 — 7113)]1/2, from the leading 33m jet to the closest jet in the :45 sample. Figure 7.2 shows a typical distribution of the energy difference between corre- sponding jets in the noise overlayed (2:5 in this case) and no noise sample, 3:55. From the mean and RMS of this distribution we extract the offset and its statistical error. 76 3 Figure 7.1: Distance in n —- (5 space from the leading an: kl jet to the closest z5 kl jet. . 3w ._ . .3 ................ , ................................................. - Z . h l P - .

By using a flat distribution, we eliminate uneven contributions in a given jet ET bin due to the steeply falling and rising distributions shown in Figure 7 .4. This is discussed in more detail with respect to the 0.7 cone jet algorithm in Appendix B. 78 TTTITIIIIIIIIIITITITTTTTT Figure 7.4: Distribution of reconstructed ET for kl jets without noise overlay. The different line types correspond to samples generated with parton ET thresholds of 30, 50, 75, 100 and 150 GeV. 7 .3 Verification of the Overlay Method To ascertain whether the overlay method models the contributions to the offset correctly, we compare the occupancies in 0.7 cone jets from our Monte Carlo with MB overlay sample to the occupancies measured in jets in a pure MB sample. Figure 7.5 shows the occupancies measured in 0.7 cone jets taken from pure MB data, and Figure 7.6 shows the occupancies in Monte Carlo with MB overlay data. We are only able to compare for In] <10, and the y-axis scales are dramatically difl'erent. However, under close examination, one can see that the occupancies for a given jet ET are in good agreement with the exception for jet ET 340 GeV. In an attempt to further our understanding and confidence in the overlay method, we measured the offsets, 02b and One, for cone jets (R = 0.7) and compared our measurement to the previous correction derived for 0.7 cone jets in the CAFIX5.1 79 >‘1“fitri'rt't'I‘THI"p‘t‘rritsfl'trrr’ o - g _ o 7 CONE JETS ,,_.

In that study, the densities were measured in ZB, ZBnoLQ, and MB events. The offsets were derived by multiplying densities by the area of a fixed cone jet, 7r x (0.7)2 ~ 1.5. In order to compare to the CAFIX5.1 offsets, we measure the offset densities, Due and Dzb, by dividing the offsets, One and Ozb, by the area of a 0.7 cone jet. This study is described in detail in Appendix B. For the offset due to noise, pile-up and multiple interactions, we compared for only one luminosity, C = 5x103°cm'2sec"1. Our results for the offset due to underlying event, Due, are consistent with CAFIX5.1 (see Figure B.4). For Dzb, on the other hand, we see a dependence on 0.7 cone jet ET which was not prescribed in the CAFIX5.1 correction (see Fig- ure B.2. We believe the ET dependence that we see is due to zero suppression effects that were not accounted for in the CAFIX5.1 correction. The zero suppression correction used in CAFIX5.1 (Equation B.1) depends on the occupancy factor, sz in jets. The occupancy for jets was seen to have little dependence on jet ET and, therefore, a constant occupancy was assumed. If instead we use the small variation in occupancy shown in Figure B5 in the CAFIX5.1 zero suppression correction, we can explain only 30% of the 0.7 cone jet ET dependence that we measure with the overlay method. Because our occupancies for given jet ET agree with pure MB data, we believe the overlay correctly models the effects of underlying event, noise, pile-up and multiple interactions. It is possible that the zero suppression correction used in CAFIX5.1 is inexact. Because the efl'ects of zero suppression were not well understood when CAFIX5.1 was derived, a large error was assigned. This error accommodates the 82 discrepancy between our measurement and the CAFIX5.1 value. Because the ET dependence for 0.7 cone jets cannot be confirmed with pure DO data, we assign an error to Ozb for kl jets. As stated above, 30% of the eflect is consistent with CAFIX5.1. The other 70% will be assigned as a systematic error to our measurement for the offset, 02),, for kl jets. 7 .4 Offsets for the kl Algorithm At this time we do not have data covering all luminosities, all jet ET and all jet 1]. Shown in Table 7 .1 are the data available at this time. In the regions where we do not have data, we will either extrapolate using the data that we have or use offset corrections from CAFIX5. 1. 7 .4.1 Offset Due to Noise, Pile-Up and Multiple Interactions As stated above, we measure the offset due to noise, pile-up and multiple interactions using the relation, 05b = ZL '- $1: . (7.3) Figs. 7.7 and 7.8 present the results for 02,, as a function Of ET at .C = 0.1 x103°cm‘2sec‘l and .C = 5 x103°cm‘2sec“1, respectively. As Opposed to the cone case (see Appendix B), very little ET dependence is Observed for the kl algorithm and this dependence becomes weaker as the luminosity increases. Exponential fits were done for luminosities lower than £=5x103°cm‘2sec‘1. 83 Ozb(GcV) Ozb(GcV) OzNGeV) _ I. mac—oz ................. )— Z L:— L- ...... ..,....... ...... ; ..................................... t o o y- — -------------------------------------------------------------- )- b )— .

The result for cones is shown for comparison. Figure 7.15 summarizes the results in One for kl and for cone jets as a function of jet 7) compared to the offset given by CAFIX5.1. Unfortunately, there is no MC available to get the offsets beyond the central region. Therefore we must use the 92 CAFIX5.1 result to determine the n dependence. Figure 7.15 shows One for k; jets for |77| <1.0 compared to One given by CAFIX5.1 and the measured 0.7 cone One (from Monte Carlo data with overlay). The good agreement in the central region between our results for cone jets and those from CAFIX5.1 reinforces our confidence in the overlay method. One is consistently larger for kl jets than it is for cone jets. We normalize the CAFIX5.1 offset to our measurement for the 0.7 cone jets. Then, we calculate the average difference between our measurements for the hi and cone jet offsets. We add this difference to the normalized CAFIX5.1 points to get the offset due to underlying event for kjjets. The final underlying event offset, One with errors is shown in Figure 7.16. We apply a 0.1 GeV statistical error that comes from the normalization process described above. There is a systematic error of 0.1 GeV to accommodate possible ET dependence (from Figure 7.14). Added in quadrature, this gives us about a 10% error in the region |n| <1.0. We will inflate this to 15% above Inl >1.0 where we have not measured 0,,e for kl jets.

In theory, the true jet momentum and energy would simply be the vector sum of the energy deposited in the calorimeter. In reality, however, the measured jet energies are reduced due to energy losses in uninstrumented regions of the detector, variations in cryostat response to single particles (e.g. non-linear response for low energy particles), and variations in the e/7r response ratio [46]. The calorimeter response to jet momentum was measured for fixed cone jets [45, 46]. There, the jet response is used to correct the scalar summed cone jet energy, E. We correct vector summed kl jet momentum, PK, jet. The method relies on trans- verse momentum (PT) balance. It is, therefore, applicable to jet momentum. One would expect the jet response to be identical for momentum and energy. However, calorimeter showering effects widen jets, causing the vector summed momentum and scalar summed energy to require different corrections. This is discussed in more 96 detail in Appendix C. The jet response correction is described in 7 sections: 1. The Missing ET Projection Fraction (MPF) Method. 2. Cryostat Factor Correction. 3. E’ —>Pkt Mapping. 4. Jet Response vs. PM. 5. Low PM Jet Response. 6. ICR Correction. 7. Jet Response Errors. 8.1 The Missing ET Projection Fraction Method Rm is measured using 'y-jet momentum balance in the transverse plane. To do this, we use the missing transverse energy projection fraction (MPF) method. The missing transverse energy, $1., is the vector momentum necessary to balance the entire event in the transverse plane. Its a: and y components are given by ET; = —2Pxi and $Ty = — 2133/" , (8.1) i=1 where P3,- and P”,- are the a: and y components of 4-momenta assigned to each calorimeter cell (assumed massless). 97 In an ideal detector, there would be no energy losses and, therefore, ET=O.0, ET = — (1373 + fir had) = 0 , (8.2) where RT had is the vector sum of the hadronic recoil in the transverse plane. In reality, the electromagnetic and hadronic responses are not unity and are measured as ”meas " ”meas _ " T7 = Ramp“ and T had -- RhadPT had . (8.3) ET is not zero and is now given by ET = - (RemET'y + RhadE'jl‘ad) 5£ 0-0 - (8.4) The electromagnetic scale, Rem, is determined very accurately. Therefore, after the photons are calibrated, $1 is given by ET = -ET7 - Rizal-5%“. (8.5) From Equation 8.2, RT W = —I37~,, and we can write ET = Em (Rhad - 1) - (8.6) Hence, the hadronic response can be measured using Rhad = 1 + MPF = 1 + M1, (8.7) ET, where inn, is the unit vector for the transverse component of the photon’s momentum. 98 Given that the event is balanced in transverse momentum, this gives the momentum fraction the jet measurement has lost due to imperfections in the calorimeter. 8.1.1 The Energy Estimator, E’ Ultimately, we would like to know the response as a function of jet momentum. However, resolution effects and reconstruction biases make the uncorrected jet mo- mentum a poorly measured quantity. In order to avoid problems that may arise from this, we look at the response as a function of a well measured quantity that is strongly correlated with the true momentum of the jet of particles, 393’. At leading order a 7—jet event should be balanced in PT. Using this and the relation, sin0 = 1/coshn, the ideal energy of the jet, E’, is given by E’ = 5.":“cosh(17jet) . (8.8) The response can then be converted to a function of It; jet momentum by mapping E” to kl jet P. The response was derived as a function of cone jet energy in CAFIX 5.1. Only the position of the jet is used to define the response as a function of E’. We use It; jet momentum, PM, because the mpf method is based on momentum balance. 99 8.2 'y-Jet Data The jet response was measured previously as a function of E’ using fixed cone jets (R = 0.7) [45, 46]. To obtain a correction for k; jet momentum, we must provide a mapping of E’ to PM. To do this, we use a subset of the data used to derive RM versus E’. Below we describe the criteria applied to the 7-jet data for measuring the jet response using cone jets. Some additional considerations were necessary for deriving the jet response correction for kj jets, and we discuss these issues below. 8.2.1 Photon Event Requirements In order to measure the jet response, we require a jet to be balanced by a well calibrated object. In Section 4.2.3, we noted that the electromagnetic calorimeter is very well calibrated for electrons and pions above a certain threshold. Therefore, we do not actually require a pure photon sample, but we need an energetic, isolated, electromagnetic cluster. So, although we use events passing triggers designed to accept direct photons, we use different offline criteria to select events. Since the majority of these electromagnetic clusters are indeed photons, throughout this thesis, we will refer to them as photons. Photon triggering is described in Appendix A. Here is a list of the general offline criteria for the events used in our photon data. 2 1 0 We select events with low instantaneous luminosity, L < 5x103°cm“ sec“ . o A multiple interaction tool, MITOOL, uses information from the level 0, track- 100 ing, and calorimeter detectors to distinguish between events where one or more interactions took place. We select events flagged by the MITOOL as having only one interaction. ET, must be greater than the trigger threshold plus one 037.7, where 037.7 is the photon energy resolution. Where multiple photon triggers are running at once, a high ET threshold cut prevents a photon event from passing a lower threshold trigger and fail a higher threshold trigger. This removes photons which fluctuated to a very high energy in the calorimeter. Longitudinal and transverse isolation cuts demand that the EM cluster not be contaminated by hadronic activity. Events with photons within 0.01 radians of a (15 crack in the calorimeter are rejected. Photons in the inter cryostat region (ICR) are avoided by demanding that I777| < 1.0 or 1.6 < I177] < 2.5. Events are discarded if there is main ring activity at the time of the event. A portion of the main ring accelerator goes through the calorimeter. When the main ring is active, radiation leaks into the detector. One and only one vertex must be found, and the z-vertex of the event must be within 70 cm of the center. 101 0 Events where a noisy cell was removed are discarded. During reconstruction, cells with a disproportionate amount of energy compared to their neighbors are removed by the AIDA (Anomalous Isolated Deposit Algorithm) software. 0 For ET7 < 30 GeV, we demand that no muon be detected. Otherwise, we demand that any muons detected have PT“ < 100 GeV. This is to avoid bremsstrahlung radiated photons from cosmic ray muons. 8.2.2 Cone Jet Requirements Here is a list of the general offline criteria for 0.7 cone jets in our 7-jet data used to derive the CAFIX5.1 jet response. 0 We remove jets whose axes are within 0.25 (in 17 — (6 space) of the photon. 0 There must be at least one remaining jet in the event. 0 We avoid the ICR by demanding that the leading jet 1) be contained in the central cryostat, CC, or one of the end cryostats, EC (Injetl < 0.7 for CC and 1.8 < Injetl < 2.5 for EC). 0 If the leading jet lies in the EC, we exclude the events where ET,7 < 25.0 GeV. 0 We avoid fake jets by demanding that the fractions of jet PT in the coarse hadronic (CHF) and electromagnetic (EMF) sections of the calorimeter be within reasonable limits: 0.05 < EMF < 0.95 CHF < 0.5. 102 o The ET ratio between the highest and the second highest ET cells in a jet (HCF) are required to be less than 10, HCF<10. 0 We require the leading jet and '7 to be back to back in (b (2.8 < Ago < 7r). 8.2.3 Additional considerations for kl Jets kl jets were reconstructed for a subset of the 'y-jet data described above in order to perform the E’ to PM mapping. We use the same cuts on kl jets that were used for 0.7 cone jets in CAFIX5.1 (above) with the exceptions that we use kl jets in place of cone jets, we require ET7 > 20 GeV (vs. 25 GeV) for EC jets, and we do not cut on HCF (this information is not available for It; jets). When the kl jets were reconstructed for this analysis, additional corrections were applied to the cell energies in the calorimeter cryostats and inter cryostat region (ICR) [52]. These corrections were not included when cone jets were reconstructed and the CAFIX5.1 jet response was measured. The purpose of these corrections was to scale raw EM objects. These corrections were introduced for a special reconstruc- tion environment called DEFIX [53]. We will refer to these corrections as DOFIX corrections from here on. The DOFIX cryostat corrections are simple multiplicative factors which are ap- plied at the calorimeter cell level. The DOFIX cryostat factors for the north (ECN), central (CC), and south (ECS) cryostats are shown in Table 8.1. A kl jet in a given cryostat will have a jet response that is higher (by the appropriate factor) than the CAFIX5.1 jet response. To correct It; jets, therefore, we multiply the CAFIX5.1 jet 103 response by 1.0496 (the CC DOFIX factor) and adjust jet correction in the north and south cryostats, H); and F S to accommodate the DOFIX factors. cry, DOFIX Cryostat Factors ECN CC ECS 1.0609 1.0496 1.0478 Table 8.1: Cryostat corrections applied to the energy in the calorimeter cryostats introduced for the DOFIX environment. The DOFIX corrections to the inter cryostat region (ICR) are not so straightfor- ward. So we use jet PT balance in two jet events to determine an ICR correction. 8.3 Cryostat Factor Correction The jet response varies in the different 17 regions of the calorimeter. To eliminate these variations, we correct the kijet momentum, PM, so that uniform (in n) jet response correction may be applied. The CAFIX5.1 jet response we will use has been corrected for the 1) dependent factors (cryostat and ICR) using 0.7 cone jets. The 7) dependent corrections were applied to 0.7 cone jets and the event ET was corrected for the change in 0.7 cone jet momentum, and the jet response, Rjet = 1 +M PF, was measured. Once this is done, Rjet can be described by a single curve as a function of E’. The jet response is measured for jets found in the central calorimeter cryostat, CC (lnl <07), and the end cryostat, EC (1.8< In] <2.5). The cryostat factor, Fay, (not to be confused with the DOFIX factors) is defined as the ratio REC/Raf. It Jet J should not depend on the jet algorithm except where the jet pseudorapidity is needed 104 to determine the jet’s position in the CC or EC. The value of Fay using 0.7 cone jets was found to be Fay = 0.977 i 0.005 (stat) for RECO V12. To verify that no complications arise from using a subset of the data or using kl jets to determine pseudorapidity and to correct event ET, we remove the DOFIX cryostat corrections from k 1 jets, correct the EC jets with Fay=0.977. We correct the event ET for the change in kl jet momentum. The resulting jet response is consistent with the CAFIX5.1 jet response with good agreement in the overlap region between central and forward jets (Figure 8.1). Because the DOFIX correction factors are different in the north and south cryostats, we will have different jet response cryostat factors. The ratio of north to south cryostat factors without the DOFIX corrections was measured to be Fcfi’y/ng = 0.997 i 0.003 [45]. We assume that the value Fay=0.977 is the average of F3; and Egg. When we incorporate the DOFIX cryostat factors, we get north and south cryostat factors of ng=0986 and ng=0.977. 8.4 E’ -—>Pkt Mapping Before mapping E’ to PM, we subtract the offset from the jets. Then, we correct for the cryostat factors, ng=0.986 and ng=0.977. We map jets in the CC and EC separately and because jets in these two regions may fall partially into the ICR, we also include the 1) dependent ICR correction.

So this correction is only necessary for the mapping of E’ to PM. Once the jets have been corrected for the offset and the eta dependent jet re- sponse corrections, the average PM is binned in E’ and plotted as a function of E’ (Figure 8.2). We fit a straight line (ax + b) to the CC and EC jets separately. The fit parameters for the CC and EC are shown in Table 8.2.

We wish to do the same in the ICR. To do this we use transverse momentum balance in di—jet events. The method is similar to that used to measure the hadronic response, but here, the central jet plays the role of the photon. 8- 7 J et-J et Data The jet-jet data used to determine the 7) dependent correction in the ICR to the jet I'eSponse is taken from events passing the inclusive jet triggers (triggers requiring One or more jets in an event).

We select events flagged by the MITOOL as having only one interaction. Events passing a given jet trigger must be fully efficient for the second highest PT jet [49]. This removes resolution biases in the forward region. A list of jet triggers and the PT cuts are shown in Table 8.4. There can be one and only one vertex found, with |z| < 50 cm. We demand two and only two reconstructed jets (no third jet with PT > 15 GeV. We demand at least one jet with [17,-MI < 0.5. The missing transverse energy in the event, ET, must be less than 70% of the leading jet PT, < 0.7. ET is the magnitude of the vector momentum E'rl necessary to balance the entire event in the transverse plane. It is defined by ET = -\J (,2: P...)2 + (2”: P,.-)2 . (8.10) i=1 112 8.7.1 Measurement of F,7 We correct the hi jets for the cryostat factor and correct the event ET using the change in kjjet momentum.

For each bin, we plot the correction factor as a function of the average PT of the forward jet in a given bin for a given trigger. We fit these with a straight line and these fits are used to determine f,, as a function of jet PT for each 77 (see Figures 8.7 and 8.8). After the correction is applied, Rm“, agrees well with Rock (see Figure 8.9).

Therefore, the corrections derived here will have no bearing on RJ-et versus E’ .

Rje¢(E) = a + b - ln(E) + c - 1n (E)2. The two curves are virtually identical. 119 8.8 The Low ET Bias The minimum ET reconstruction threshold for 0.7 cone jets is 8 GeV. The jet reconstruction efficiency for this threshold does not reach 100% until 20 GeV. This, combined with a steeply falling jet ET distribution, leads to biases in the jet response measured using the MPF method. To remove this bias, the jet response was measured as a function of ET7 (instead of E’) with no jet requirements. The bias is estimated using Rbias : RJet(2 l jet) (813) 1 RJet(no jet required) where the numerator is measured as described in Section 8.1 with the jet required to be in the CC. Since the denominator has no jet requirement, the hadronic recoil is unrestricted and may lie in the BC or ICR making the numerator and denominator inconsistent. To reconcile this, Rm, is normalized to unity for ET, > 20 GeV(where the reconstruction efficiency for jets is 100%). The jet response, RM, is corrected in the following way. First, the 0.7 cone jets (in the CC) are corrected by the inverse of Ru“. Then, the event missing ET is corrected for the change in the 0.7 cone jet momentum, and Rjet is measured with the corrected Er- The three lowest points in Figure 8.3 have been corrected for this bias. The large error bars reflect the uncertainty determined from a Monte Carlo simulation where the resolutions, efficiency and reconstruction parameters were varied. 120 8.9 Low Pkt Jet Response In this study, we included kl jets with PTJ-et > 2 GeV. We hoped to avoid the Low ET bias described above because this threshold is considerably lower than the 8 GeV threshold used for finding cone jets. Unfortunately, it is difficult to extract a hard 2—to—2 process involving a photon and a jet at low momentum. When the jet response is low, a jet’s position resolution is also poor. A jet and a photon resulting from a 2-to—2 process will less likely be found back to back if the jet response is low than if it is high. This is the case for low energy events as demonstrated in Figure 8.11 where Ad), jet (A45, M = |¢7| — |¢jet|) is shown for low and high momentum kl jets. In addition to this, we see that for ET7 < 20 GeV, the lst, 2nd and 3rd jets appear to have similar PT distributions making it difficult to differentiate between jets coming from the hard process and spurious jets reconstructed from underlying event and noise. Figure 8.12 shows the PT distributions of kl jets (excluding k J_ jets reconstructed from the photon) for a range of ET,. Some attempt was made to pronounce the structure of these events. We tried loosening the back-to-back cut and allowing (in addition to the leading jet) the 2nd or 3rd jet to balance the photon. While this was effective in unbiasing the jet response, it wasn’t very useful in achieving the ultimate goal of jet momentum calibration because it also allows events where more than one object balances the photon. In addition, questions are raised as to how to treat jets in such events where it is difficult to discern between a hard interaction and underlying event and noise. 121 O.25»— — ET7 > 20 GeV ——* P ------ ET, < 20 GeV 02— A 0.15— 0.1— 0.05 — O .1 .1 .1 J 1-4-4.4-1-1‘1'd‘-1-‘I-1-- 1 1 1 1 l in 1 l 1 1 1 l 1 1 1 l 1 1 1.2 1.4 1.6 1.8 2 2.2 2.4 2.5 2.8 3 v-KTAso Figure 8.11: Act.7 jet normalized distribution for kl jets (Aqfi, M = |¢7| — |¢jet|). 122 7000 :— 100ev400ev \ - -.- g * +—o— + +_,_—o— -o- '0' + 0* + *fi H —o—' W -o— l’ + + ++ +H *1 E _O.1 l l l L l I l L L l L L l 4 I L l l l l L J L l L L L 4 LL 05 l 15 2 2.5 3 77 2 0.1 {0 :P,2>6OGeV 0: : + _._ <1 0"." .I + 1: . -o- ... 31+ . + - -o- _ + _._ _ -o— + _O.1’-1 L L l I L _L L L L l I l J l l l l l l l l J L l l 1 l l L 0.5 1 15 2 25 3 77 g 0.1 m3 *P,2>95CeV E : + ++ _ ' —o— a: :" .. +++ _ —o— _O.1bl l l L I l l 1 L l l l l l I l l 1 L L l L L 1T1 l _L L J 05 l 1.5 2 25 3 77 g 0.1 0:3 * P,,>130 GeV 7 \ t CK _ -o- -o— <1 + -O- ++++ : —o— _O.1 l l 4 l L l l L I L l l L 1 L l 4 14L 1 L l L I l I L l l 05 1 15 2 25 3 77 g 0.1 m8 - P,,> 175 GeV + \ .

Jets pointing to (,0 cracks, or with average characteristics different from those in the 7-jet sample, may need a different correction. The correction is accurate for 1:; jets with PT >15 GeV and |77| <3. The poor knowledge of the calibration in the range PT <15 GeV is taken into account with a rapidly increasing error below this threshold. The calibration is based on Run Ib data taken in p75 collisions at \/E = 1.8 TeV. o Offset: the total offset, E0(77, LI) has contributions from physics underlying 144 event, 0,“, and an offset due to uranium noise and pile-up, 027,. One and Ozb were derived from a sample of Monte Carlo events with DQ) data events over- layed. One is parameterized as a function of 77. Above |77| >1.0, we apply a correction based on the 77 dependence of the CAFIX5.1 correction but normal- ized in the central region to our result. Ozb is parameterized as a function of 77, L, and PT. For |77| >1.0, we apply a correction based on the 77 dependence of the sample generated at 30< PT <50 GeVat .C = 5 x 1030pb"lsec‘1 but normalized in the central region as a function of C and PT. Response (77 dependence): the cryostat factor is adjusted for the DOFIX corrections, Fc’l’y20.986:l:0.006 and ng=0.977:l:0.006. The ICR 77 dependent correction was derived using jet-jet data. It is applied to 77 bins in units of 0.1 and parametrized as a function of PT in each bin. We assign a 1% error to the correction based on these values and introduce an additional 77 dependent error that turns on at |77| =25 and increases linearly up to a 3% at |77| =3. Response (energy dependence): the CAFIX5.1 jet response as a function of E’ was taken and multiplied by the DQFIX CC factor of 1.0496 to accom- modate this correction in the k; jet data. E’ was mapped to kl jet P and the jet response is fit as a function of kl jet P above 30 GeV. Below 35 GeV jet momentum, there is an additional correction to accommodate the deviation from the extrapolated fit. Below 35 GeV jet PT, there is an additional error to account for the uncertainty in the jet response (see Figure 8.13b). Misclustering: No correction is applied, but an error is assigned to accom- modate misclustering of energy. 145 0 Monte Carlo: The correction is derived from a HERWIG sample processed through SHOWERLIB and reconstructed with RECO V12. At present, there is no correction for variations in the ICR region. 10.1 Summary Plots of Corrections and Errors In this section we provide some summary plots to illustrate the size of the jet correc- tions and errors as a function of jet PT and pseudorapidity. For the following plots, lsec—1. Figures 10.1 - 10.3 show the correction luminosity was set to 5 x 1030 cm" and errors as a function of kl jet PT for 3 different 77 regions. In the 77:12 plots, Figure 10.2, the EM, CH, FH, and ICR fractions were taken as averages of values found in D0 jet data. The fluctuations at large energies are due to low statistics in narrow PT bins. Figures 10.4 and 10.5 show the full correction and errors as a function of 77. Here also, the EM, CH, FH, and ICR fractions are taken as averages of values found in data. 146 Jet Corrections and Errors (Jet 77 = 0.0) L 1.15 .9 U _ E 1.1- C - .9 5 1.05— a) L .— L o o 1— - —— Nominol 0.95—‘ ..............

Shown in Figure 11.1 is a measurement of R32 as a function of Hm using D0 data. Jets are corrected for the momentum scale, and the errors reflect statistical uncertainty only. H73 is defined as the sum of the PT of the 3 highest PT Is; jets in an event, 3 HT3 = ZPT, . (11.1) i=1 The number of jets in a given event is equal to the number of kl jets with PT, > fem x HT3. R32 is measured as the ratio of events with 3 or more jets to events with 2 or more jets, 023 jets _ 022 jets ° R32 (11.2) Because we choose fan to avoid cases where only one jet passes the cut, virtually all events have at least 2 jets. So R32 can also be thought of as the fraction of events 152 with 3 or more jets. s; O: 0.9 i=0.15 0.8 0 DO Doto O HW Hodrons OJ?

Errors are statistical only. Errors in Monte Carlo Data are the weighted statistical errors. At this time, we have not made a comparison to an 0012 calculation. For com- parison, the R32 is measured using Herwig Monte Carlo data (version 5.8) at the hadron level. This is the same sample of events used to determine fcut = 0.15 in Chapter 5. The Herwig data are consistently higher than the D0 data. However, no systematic studies (other than the momentum calibration) have been performed on the DC data. So at this point, it is extremely difficult to draw any conclusions. 153 Appendix A Photon and Jet Triggers A.1 Photon Triggers The photon triggers we use were designed for direct photon measurements and span the ET range from 6 GeV through 60 GeV. At Level 1 (the hardware trigger), all photon triggers require at least one calorimeter trigger tower (0.2 x 0.2 in 17 x 45) to have ET above some threshold. The thresholds used for various triggers are shown in Table A.1. When an event passes a level 1 trigger, a list of towers satisfying the level 1 criteria is sent to the Level 2 framework for further analysis. The Level 2 software triggers have different requirements, but they all share the same algorithm to identify photon candidates [56]. The algorithm begins by identifying the most energetic cell in the 3rd layer of the EM calorimeter in a tower that passed the level 1 threshold. The ET in the cells within An x Aqb = 0.3 x 0.3 is summed in the EM and FHl (lst layer of the fine hadronic calorimeter). To determine whether or not this is a desirable photon candidate, the following criteria 154 Trigger Level 1 Level 2 Name Threshold Threshold (GeV) (GeV) GAM.6_ISO_GAM 2.5 6.0 GAM_14_ISO_GAM 7.0 14.0 GAM.20_ISO-GAM 7.0 20.0 EMLGIS 14.0 25.0 EM1-GIS.HIGH 14.0 40.0 EM1_ESC 14.0 60.0 Table A.1: Triggers used in the photon event selection. Additional ET cuts are applied offline. are imposed on this cluster: 0 The ET of the candidate cluster must be above the thresholds shown in Ta- ble A.1. o The hadronic energy of the cluster (contained in FHl) must be less than 10% of the total energy. 0 The energy deposited in the EM3 layer must be between 10 and 90 percent of the total. 0 The shower shape of the cluster in the EM3 layer is required to be consistent with electron shower shapes in test beam data. This is measured by taking the difference between the radial moments in 0.5 x 0.5 and 0.3 x 0.3 windows around the axis of the cluster. The difference is required to be below some value which varies as a function of 77. 155 o A cut, fm, is made to ensure that the photon is isolated from other activity, Er=.4 _ Eduster Eduster < fiso 1 (A.1) where E”:4 denotes the energy contained in a cone of radius .4 (17 — 45 space). fiso = 15% for all level 2 filters except GAM-6_ISO-GAM where it is set to 30% A.2 Jet Triggers The inclusive jet triggers were designed to accept events with 1 or more jets with jet ET above some threshold. At Level 1 (the hardware trigger), there are two types of jet triggers. One type requires a trigger tower (0.2 x 0.2 in n x (b) to have ET above some threshold. The other type requires a large tile (0.8 x 1.6 in 17 x 43 or 4 x 8 in trigger towers) to be above some ET threshold. All of the triggers used in this thesis required the second type (large tiles) except for the JET.MIN trigger which requires a trigger tower. The thresholds used for various triggers are shown in Table A.2. When an event passes a level 1 trigger, a hot tower list is sent to the Level 2 framework for further analysis. For J ET.MIN, the hot towers are simply all the trigger towers with ET > 3 GeV. For the large tile type triggers, the hot towers are the ET weighted centers of the large tiles with ET > 6 GeV. Below is a brief overview of the workings of the level 2 jet finder software package, L2JETS, which identifies jet candidates. 1. L2JETS receives a hot tower list from the Level 1. The hot tower list is a list 156 Trigger Level 1 Level 2 Name Threshold Threshold (GeV) (GeV) JET-MIN 3.0 20.0 JET_3O 15.0 30.0 J ET-50 25.0 50.0 JET-85 35.0 85.0 JET_MAX 35.0 115.0 Table A.2: Triggers used in jet event selection. JET-MIN required a trigger tower (versus a large tile) at level 1. Additional ET cuts are applied offline. of ’candidate’ trigger towers. In run 1b, there were two types of candidates: those from trigger tower (0.217 x 0.2¢) type triggers and those from large tile (0.817 x 1.6¢ or 4 x 8 trigger towers) type triggers. The trigger tower candidates are simply trigger towers whose total (EM + Hadronic) ET is greater than some set of ’seed’ thresholds The position of a large tile candidate is the trigger tower(0.217 x 0.2¢) corresponding to the ET weighted center of a large tile(0.817x 1.6¢) whose total ET is greater than the seed threshold. These ’seed’ thresholds are not to be confused with the thresholds necessary to pass the level 1 trigger (i.e. JET-30 requires 1 large tile with ET > 15 GeV and the level 2 seed requirement is large tile ET > 6 GeV). The hot tower list is ordered in ET. 2. The filters are considered in the order in which they appear in the trigger list. For a given level 2 filter, the seed candidates in the hot tower list are considered for this particular filter. A 1.417 x 1.4¢ box is drawn around the seed tower and the ET weighted center of this box will become the level 2 jet center. 3. All calorimeter towers (.117 x .1¢) within .7 of the L2 jet center that are not flagged as used in a previous jet are summed in By», EM ET and the 17 — ¢ 157 RMS size is found. . If the ET of the calorimeter tower sum is above the level 2 threshold (see Table A.2), the event passes and all trigger towers and calorimeter towers within .7 of the L2 jet center are flagged as used. . Return to step 2. At any point, if the trigger tower considered has been flagged as used, the L2 jet it is associated with is considered. If this L2 jet ET is above threshold, the event passes. 158 Appendix B Cone Jet Offset Comparison The offsets for the cone algorithm implemented in CAFIX5.1 were derived using density contributions multiplied by the area (in 17 — ¢ space) of the cone jets. The densities were measured using the same data samples we overlayed on the Monte Carlo data. We study the offset in cone jets, with the aim of understanding our method, and to cross-check the results against the offset densities of CAFIX5.1. We calculate the densities Due and Dzb as D = 0/1.5, where 1.5 is the jet area in 17 — ¢ space for an R = 0.7 cone and 0 is the offset (One or 027,) as measured using the method described in Chapter 7. Here we will use the same notation as is used for 11:; jets in Chapter 7, but we will be referring to cone jets reconstructed with ’R :07 instead of It; jets. 2:2: 0.7 cone jet ET in Monte Carlo with no overlay. m0 0.7 cone jet ET in Monte Carlo with MB overlay. 211 0.7 cone jet ET in Monte Carlo with ZBnoLQ overlay. 159 2L 0.7 cone jet ET in Monte Carlo with ZB overlay at luminosity [I = L x 103°cm‘2 (e.g. 25 for E = 5 x103°cm'2sec‘1).

Both sets of points differ only by the weight assigned to the generated jets. The open box shows for reference the result from the J ES DONote. 164 without reference to jets. To the extent that the resolution correction is performed at a later stage in physical analyses, we will focus on this note on the unsmeared offset. This method provides an interesting alternative to studying the effect of smearing, and the possibility remains open for further studies with the smeared offset. For the case of the underlying event, obtained as One 2 m0 — 211, we select the two leading jets in xx, find the associated jets in m0 and 211, and perform the ET subtraction, which again corresponds to the unsmeared offset. Then the offset, One is divided by the cone jet area, 1.5, to obtain the density, Due. B.2 Dependence of the Offset on ET We have studied the ET dependence of Dzb and Due for the unsmeared case, as it allows comparison with the CAFIX5.1 results. Figure B.4 shows our results for Due as a function of 0.7 cone jet ET for several jet 17 bins in the central region. There appears to be no ET dependence and the values are consistent with those shown in [45]. Figure B.2 shows our results for Dzb (L = 5 xlowcm’zsec’l) as a function of 0.7 cone jet ET for several jet 17 bins in the central region. It is somewhat surprising to see a large dr0p with ET for Dzb, while not for the underlying event, Due. This can be explained if the occupancy (the fraction of readout cells in a jet) increases with energy. In this case, the noise contribution goes down because the relative importance of zero suppression diminishes. Fig B.5 shows the occupancy as a function of eta for various ET bins. This is consistent with occupancies measured 165 a he Damn/11.11) p e 6 Q 0.4 6 9 Q be P a 0.16am») 8 0.4 Physim Underlying Event Density, Due ....................

In CAFIX5.1, the ET density contribution of the zero suppression cut within a jet, 61-8,, was related to the density contribution in ZB data, 623, by F219 8 — B. 5H 528 F1111 ( 1) where FZB and FM are the corresponding occupancy factors for ZB data and jets 167 respectively. In CAFIX5. 1, the occupancies were assumed to be constant as a function of jet ET . Figure B.5 shows the occupancy in the central region on a much smaller scale than is shown in [45] and one can see some dependence on ET . This ET dependence can only account for 30% of the drop in Figure B2. The relation in Equation B1 is empirical and it was checked only for low ET jets. Although we believe our measurement to be more accurate than the empirical formula, the remaining 70% will be taken as a systematic error to account for the discrepancy. In CAFIX5.1, the offset is extracted from zbias events and corrected for the occu- pancy in a jet environment assuming no change in the average energy of an occupied cell. This assumption is probably correct between a zbias event and a low energy jet, but only approximate as the energy of the jet increases. If there were no zero suppression, one would certainly expect no ET dependence in the offset for 0.7 cone jets. Because the area in 17 — ¢ space is fixed for cone jets, the contribution should be the same regardless of jet ET . Because zero suppression truncates both positive and negative energies and the noise is not gaussian, it is difficult to assess its effects. This is not the case for Due, because the underlying event energy addition is always positive. Figures B6 and B7 show the energy densities for mO-xx and 211- xx. Both have noise contribution and do show a drop with ET . The underlying event contribution, Due (shown in Figure 8.4), is the difl'erence of these two, m0- 211, and, therefore, the noise contribution (including zero suppression efl'ects) cancel. Therefore, it is reasonable that Due is ET independent. 168 Dm(Gth11¢) .. 1': i a he 0,...(Gewn.¢) E '1: fl 0.8 .— H to is 0,31me .1) 0.8 0.6 Minimum Bias Density, DMB ~JLIIIIIIIIIIIIIILII 50 100 150 200 E,(Gev1 ............ +; .............. +..

Because the response is not uniform over the entire shower and because mpf uses PT balance (not ET ), we will tend to under correct 172 (a) (b) Figure C.1: Showering efl'ects in the MPF method. (a) A photon is balanced by three particles, 1, 2, and 3, in the transverse plane. E1 > E2, E3 and R1 > R2, R3. (b) The 2nd and 3rd particles are deflected away from the jet axis in the calorimeter. 173 Energy using the MPF method. If the response were uniform over the shower, the energy and momentum correction would be identical. This leads to undercorrection when correcting energy using MPF. But the momentum is correctly corrected. To illustrate this, Figure C.1a depicts a simple event where a photon is balanced by a jet of 3 particles in the transverse plane. Particle 1 lies along the jet axis which is back to back with the photon. Let us assume the 3 particles are massless (i.e. E = P) and the event takes place in the transverse plane (i.e. ET 2 E). Then, the particle jet’s energy can be written as Epic! : E1+ E2 + E3 1 (0'1) and the momentum is given by Pptcl = E7 = E1 + E2608012 + E3603013 . ((3.2) Given particle responses of R1 > R2, R3, the measured jet quantities are given by Em, = R1121 + R2E2 + R3E3 (0.3) and Pm“, = RlEl + R2E2608012 + R3E3608013 . (0.4) The ratio of measured to particle jet quantities is the true energy/momentum re- sponse for the jet. If the particle response is uniform over the jet, R = R1 = R2 = R3, the energy and momentum jet response would be identical, R. 174 The MPF jet response is given by Rmpf=1+MPF where MPFzm. ET, Substituting for the event ET, yields ETZ—(RIISI+R2132+R3133+P;) , R1 E1 + R2E2608012 + R3E3608613 Rmpf = E ‘7 Pmeas R1npf P Pptcl (0.5) (0.1) The jet response derived using the MPF method is identical to the true momentum jet response. For the energy jet response, let us assume particles 2 and 3 have equal response, R2 = R3 = R and R1 = R + 6. Then the energy and momentum jet response will be 6E1 R = +R and R11 = 2 1+12 Pptcl (0.8) Since Em, > Pptd, the energy jet response will be less than the momentum jet response (RE < Rp = .anpf). Thus, jets will be undercorrected in energy using Rm?! ° The second mechanism which would make the energy jet response unequal to the 175 momentum jet response occurs when particles get deflected in the detector and the detector absorbs the recoil such that the recoil is not measured in the calorimeter. The net result is a wider jet at the calorimeter level than at the particle level. This is essentially the mechanism described in [55]. This means that the measured Ema, — Pm“, is greater than the true Em, — Pptd. Therefore, the energy of the jet needs less correction than the momentum. Since the MPF method measures the momentum jet response, the energy will be over corrected using MPF method. But again, the momentum is correctly corrected. Figure C.1b shows an example of this where a photon is balanced by 3 show- ered particles in the transverse plane. The true E and P are the same as above (Equations 0.1 and C2. The measured E is also the same (Equation C.3). In this scenario, the angles between 1 and 2, and 1 and 3, 013, are larger than in the previous example ( 12 2‘ > 0:3“ and 01’5““ > 0:3”). Therefore, the measured P will be less than it was in the previous example. A similar exercise will also show that Rmpf = Rp and that RE > HP. In this case, jets will be overcorrected in energy using Rmpf- And again, Rm, gives us the correct jet momentum response. Both these showering effects come into play with cone jets because they use scalar sum Et. Because we use vector sum momentum for kt jets, we should not be aflected by these biases. We do use Snowmass recombination in the preclustering, however, so there may be a small efl'ect. This is discussed in section 9.4. 176 References [1] V.
