Update on Tools
FTK Meeting

Physics Case (Reminder)
Statement #1
Statement #2
FTK vs TDR menus,
i.e. no tracking at
LVL2—ignore timing.
FTK vs nominal LVL2,
incl. tracking.
Fix LVL2 output
rate.
Limit LVL1 output
rate to sth
reasonable.
Optimize LVL1 cuts
& LVL2 tagging
reqs, maximizing
signal acceptance/
significance.

Need:
• FTK allows b-jet (t)
ID w/ eb, ec, eq, et.
• Correlation w/ offline?
• Depends on environment
Same as stmt #1,
but add trigger
timing into the eqs.
• LVL1 trigger rate, driven
by multijet evts, estimated
using modern generator +
parametrization of full
ATLAS LVL1 simulation.
But more realistic,
stronger case.
Hard to estimate,
large uncertainties.

Tools needed to estimate LVL1 rates
1. Multijet Monte Carlo with accurate treatment
of 3rd/4th jets  SHERPA.
–
Run through ATLFAST fast simulation.
2. Parametrization of LVL1 jet & tau trigger
response using full simulation.
3. Code to apply arbitrary set of trigger thresholds
to a given event, determine probability (weight)
for the event to pass.

Sherpa issues
• Several issues discovered with Sherpa samples:
– No b quarks in ME
• Clearly important for tagging rates. Fix next slide.
– No underlying event/mult. parton interactns (known)
•
•
•
•
Could be important, falling spectrum and all that.
Off by default in Sherpa, bugs/crashes when it’s turned on.
Improved by upgrading to last month’s Sherpa release.
Still under validation, so not in time for default samples.
– Some warnings + rare crashes fixed by upgrading to
Sherpa 1.0.8.

Sherpa: b quarks in ME
• No b quarks in ME for previously
produced Sherpa samples.
• Can add massive b quark by
explicitly writing out all processes:
– 2->2: 8 processes.
– 2->3: 10 processes.
– 2->4: 14 processes.
• Or declare b quark massless and it
comes for free with other quarks.
• Test samples of each: no difference
in kinematics, so use easier/quicker
massless b approach.
• But b jets are now clearly more
numerous and harder.

Final Sherpa samples
• Use Sherpa 1.0.8, massless b quarks in the ME,
UE off. (But in parallel work on validating a
sample with UE to determine effect.)
– 22 + 23 ME, ycut  25 GeV.
– Sample with 24 is running, but takes much longer.
• Additional samples can be created as needed.
– E.g. tried ycut  10 GeV, but found difficult to use
since effective statistics are miserable, and
understanding of low-pT jets/triggers is shaky at best.

Tau LVL1 trigger parametrization
• Two pieces
– Probability to pass iso cuts (2 GeV EM & HAD)
A  Landau ( pT , B, C)  D
– Energy of LVL1 cluster passing iso cuts
 2  Gaus( ETL1,  0 , 1 )  (1   2 )  Exp(  ETL1 /  3 );
 i  p2i  PTATL  p2i 1
• This characterizes the response of the LVL1 tau
trigger to jets. Would be useful to have as well
the response to real taus.

Tau LVL1 parametrization
• Histograms are dijet
MC samples, tau trigger
response for slices of
ATLFAST jet pT.
• Curves are from the
fitted parametrization.
• Good (enough)
agreement in both prob
to pass isolation cuts
and energy response.
• Param valid for ATL
pT>10, LVL1 t ET>10.

Jet LVL1 parametrization
Response in
slices of
ATL pT.

LVL1 parametrization
• Have characterization of jetjet, jettau.
– Would be useful to know tautau.
• Have code that, given the parametrization and a
list of jets for one event, returns the probability
that N of the jets pass a given trigger threshold.
– Should extend it to multiple thresholds.

Conclusions
• LVL1 rate tools are mostly final.
– Took a long time, but was also my introduction to
doing analysis/software work in ATLAS.
– Work on Sherpa can perhaps be used by rest of
ATLAS.
• Write up the tools as part of FTK physics case
note.
• Focus on physics channel (Hhhbbbb) for
next time.
