Status of NLOjet++ for dijet angular distributions Lee Pondrom University of Wisconsin 20 May 2010
Ingredients • 1.1 fb-1 jet100 triggered data • 1E10 nlojet++ events with CTEQ6 • 2E6 Pythia events with full CDFSim and CTEQ5 • 1E6 ‘standalone’ Pythia events with CTEQ6 and ISR, FSR turned off.
Pythia first • We have to use Pythia to correct the data to the hadron level. • We use a calculation of the subprocess cross sections to understand Pythia. • We learn that to reproduce the Pythia angular distributions, the 2->2 subprocesses with nonidentical final state partons must be u<->t symmetrized.
Key to previous slide • q1q2->q1q2 t channel gluon exchange • q1q2bar->q1q2bar t channel gluon* • q1q1->q1q1 t channel gluon • q1q1bar->q2q2bar s channel annihilation • q1q1bar->q1q1bar s and t channels* • q1q1bar->glueglue s channel annihilation • glueglue->q1q1bar/glueglue* s and t • q1glue->q1glue compton* *=large
2->2 subprocesses • The peaks at =1 come from the u<->t symmetrization • The t channel gluon exchange cross sections dominate, which is the motivation for the choice of scale Q2=pT2. • Now that we understand Pythia born, let us look at nlojet++ born
Normalization • Each set of four mass plots has one overall normalization. • All programs agree on the 1/mass4 dependence of the cross section. • Nlojet++ born agrees better with Pythia as the mass increases.
conclusion • We understand Pythia. It agrees well with the data, and strengthens the Pythia based quark substructure analysis. • To compare nlojet++ to the data, we need to correct the data to the hadron level using Pythia
Nlojet++ has no CDF trigger • After jet energy corrections the 100 GeV trigger moves to about 125 GeV • ET= M/(1+)=(Msin(*))/2 which has to be removed, in addition to other instrumental effects.
2 for hadron level data compared to Q2=pT2 Pythia noqsub • 20 bins one parameter fits • M (GeV) events (data) 2 • 600 150343 32 • 700 42106 38 • 800 11392 17 • 900 3134 17
Jet-jet angular distribution and quark substructure • Quark substructure effective contact color singlet Lagrangian of Eichten, et al is: • L = ±(g²/2Λ²(LLLL • Looks just like muon decay. Affects only the u and d quarks. Color singlet means that some diagrams have no interference term. • g²/4 = 1; strength of the interaction ~(ŝ/²)² • This measurement is not sensitive to the interference term. _ _ _
Fitted slopes vs (1/4) give sensitivity to quark substructure
2 for one parameter fits to first 12 bins of data with nlojet++ • Mass GeV 0=Etav 0.7Etav 1.4Etav • 600 75 110 78 • 700 75 48 65 • 800 36 48 35 • 900 37 35 37 • No fit is particularly good, compared to Pythia
Cuts in nlojet++ • For 2 partons with highest ET • ET>10 GeV • ||<2 • Cone size D=0.7 in (,) space • Rsep = 1.3. D and Rsep govern when the third parton is included with one of the other two to form a ‘jet’. Should have no effect on a born calculation.
Systematics • Calculate R(Nlojet++) for 0=ETave, 0.7 ETave, and 1.4ETave. • Calculate R(data) for level7JetE corrections, and 1 on JetE corrections • Average the results <R(data)> and <R(Nlojet)>
Table • M(GeV) R(data) R(nlojet) ratio • 600 .815.017 .818.009 1.0.02 • 700 .87.02 .81.01 1.07 .02 • 800 .85.05 .82.02 1.04.06 • 900 .92.09 .83.02 1.1.1 • Fitted slope s=0.160.07, intersept=1.0, 2=2.3
Conclusions • The original Pythia based analysis has been repeated, with the following changes. • Only Pythia with Q2=pT2 used. • Data corrected to hadron level with Pythia • Sensitivity to quark substructure uses Pythia integrated over smaller regions in to accommodate Nlojet++.
Conclusions continued • Systematics are included in the comparison of data to nlojet++ by varying the jet energy corrections in data and the hard scale 0 in nlojet++. • limit from the fitted slope: >2.1 TeV 95% confidence. • Expected limit for zero slope is >2.6 TeV 95% confidence.
