  3. Comments on Heavy Flavour Jet Tagging with ZVTOP in JAS3 LCFI Physics Meeting 8th March 2005 • Jet flavour tagging in JAS3 • Use of neutral energy • Cosθ dependence • Primary vertex momentum • Conclusions Dave Jackson Jo Sarsam This talk { For: LCWS-05 nth March 2005 Stanford, California

  4. Polar angle dependence of jet flavour tag LCFI study with SGV for standard ILC vertex detector; track resolution: For a 1 GeV track at cosθ ~ 0.9 resolution is 3 times worse than at cosθ ~ 0.0. Study: • Consider 45 GeV jets from heavy quark Z decays, |cosθ|<0.9 • Set up 2-input b/c-jet flavour tag using neural network cjnn • Look at tagging performance at large |cosθ| • Can this be improved by tuning the tag in this region ?

  5. Two input flavour tag (as seen at SLD) PT corrected mass: Secondary vertex momentum vrs PT corrected mass: (These are the two inputs to cjnn)

  6. Flavour tag performance for 2 input network Applied to region |cosθ|>0.8 only Applied to region |cosθ|>0.8 only; but trained with |cosθ| as 3rd input 2-input network trained and applied to |cosθ|>0.8 region only • Conclusion: • Tagging performance degraded at large |cosθ| • Not easily recoverable by retraining neural network

  7. All ZVTOP based flavour tagging variables in the past have relied on properties of the secondary vertices. But there is also information in the primary vertex that is not 100% correlated with that in the secondaries. The summed momentum of tracks in the primary vertex differs for b-jets and c-jets due to differing fragmentation functions Motivates study of this variable as an additional neural network input

  8. Flavour tag performance for 2 input network Flavour tag performance for 3 input network Conclusion: Including the primary vertex momentum improves the b/c separation by ~10% (a big gain for such a straight forward input)

  9. Toshi Abe, LCWS02 NN inputs: vertex mass, vertex momentum, decay length, normalised decay length, no. of vertices found, no. of 1-prong vertices found (call ZVTOP twice with different RCUT/XCUT ?)
