7/8/2016James L Pinfold Manchester “Exclusive” QED - will have n_ass=0 But there is background from events where the associated tracks are not seen (due to acceptance). We estimate this by linearly extrapolating the n_assoc track distribution into the n_assoc =0 bin In this example the background due to unobserved associated tracks is ~20 events out of 76. The linear extrapolation seems to be good in all mass ranges considered This approach to background subtraction is being studied Check Analysis in Presence of Check Analysis in Presence of Pileup Using QED States (2) Pileup Using QED States (2) EXAMPLE- FOR ILLUSTRATION ONLY

7/8/2016 James L Pinfold Manchester With some confidence that we can work with exclusive signals in the presence of pileup we are looking at the signals from the Upsilon Υ(1S,2S,3S) and b (Upsilon + soft photon) signal via the muon-pair final state. Choose events in acceptance with good quality + preliminary kinematic cuts (large box cuts) & CR veto To take account of the higher expected p T (muon-pair) and the larger value of expected for such events we have changed the cuts to: 0.35 ≤ p T (muon-pair) ≤ 1.2 GeV/c ≤ ≤ 0.15 Radians Clear Y(1s) and Y(2s) peaks seen (plots not blessed) “Small box” cuts Ongoing Work on Υ(1s,2s,3s) & b Ongoing Work on Υ(1s,2s,3s) & b b Υ(1S) Υ(2S) Υ(3S) bb b
