PDF studies at ATLAS HERA-LHC workshop 2007 A M Cooper-Sarkar, Oxford At the LHC high precision (SM and BSM) cross section predictions require precision Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) How do PDF Uncertainties affect SM physics How do PDF uncertainties affect BSM physics? What measurements can we make at ATLAS to improve the PDF uncertainty? With thanks to ATLAS SM group M.Boonekamp C Gwenlan D Clements T Carli J Huston A Tricoli Not covering low-mass Drell-Yan, high-mass Drell-Yan, Z+b jets, etc

HERA and the LHC- transporting PDFs to hadron-hadron cross-sections QCD factorization theorem for short-distance inclusive processes where X=W, Z, D-Y, H, high-ET jets, prompt-γ and  is known to some fixed order in pQCD and EW in some leading logarithm approximation (LL, NLL, …) to all orders via resummation ^ pA pB fa fb x1 x2 X The central rapidity range for W/Z production AT LHC is at low-x (5 ×10-4 to 5 ×10-2) Knowledge of the PDFs is vital

What has HERA data ever done for us? Z Pre-HERA W+/W-/Z rapidity spectra ~ ± 15% uncertainties become! NO WAY to use these cross-sections as a good luminosity monitor Post-HERA W+/W-/Z rapidity spectra ~ ± 5% uncertainties

Where did the improvement come from Where did the improvement come from? There has been a tremendous improvement in our knowledge of the low-x glue and thus of the low-x sea The uncertainty on the W/Z rapidity distributions is dominated by –- gluon PDF dominated eigenvectors Both low-x and high-x gluon High-x gluon eigenvector It may at first sight be surprising that W/Z distns are sensitive to gluon parameters BUT our experience is based on the Tevatron where Drell-Yan processes can involve valence-valence parton interactions. At the LHC we will have dominantly sea-sea parton interactions at low-x And at Q2~MZ2 the sea is driven by the gluon- which is far less precisely determined for all x values

Where did the improvement come from Where did the improvement come from? There has been a tremendous improvement in our knowledge of the low-x glue and thus of the low-x sea Pre-HERA sea and glue distributions Post HERA sea and glue distributions

→Not such a precise luminosity monitor MRST PDF NNLO corrections small ~ few% NNLO residual scale dependence < 1% W/Z production have been considered as good standard candle processes with small theoretical uncertainty. BUT- there are also QED effects to be considered of a similar size to NNLO QCD PDF uncertainty has been considered as a dominant contribution and most PDF groups quote uncertainties <~5% PDF Set ZEUS-S CTEQ6.1 MRST01 (nb) BUT the central values differ by more than some of the uncertainty estimates. AND the situation just got dramatically worse. The new CTEQ6.5 estimate is 8% higher →Not such a precise luminosity monitor

Can we improve our knowledge of PDFs using ATLAS data itself? We actually measure the decay lepton spectra Generate with HERWIG+k-factors (checked against MC@NLO) using CTEQ6.1M ZEUS_S MRST2001 PDFs with full uncertainties from LHAPDF eigenvectors At y=0 the total uncertainty is ~ ±6% from ZEUS ~ ±4% from MRST01E ~ ±8% from CTEQ6.1 To improve the situation we NEED to be more accurate than this:~4% Statistics are no problem there will be millions of W’s We need to control the systematic uncertainty generator level electron positron ATLFAST electron positron

Study of the effect of including the LHC W Rapidity distributions in global PDF fits by how much can we reduce the PDF errors with early LHC data? Generate data with 4% error using CTEQ6.1 PDF, pass through ATLFAST detector simulation and then include this pseudo-data in the global ZEUS PDF fit Central value of prediction shifts and uncertainty is reduced BEFORE including W data AFTER including W data Lepton+ rapidity spectrum data generated with CTEQ6.1 PDF compared to predictions from ZEUS PDF AFTER these data are included in the fit Lepton+ rapidity spectrum data generated with CTEQ6.1 PDF compared to predictions from ZEUS PDF Specifically the low-x gluon shape parameter λ, xg(x) = x –λ , was λ = -.199 ± .046 for the ZEUS PDF before including this pseudo-data It becomes λ = -.181 ± .030 after including the pseudodata

The uncertainty on the W+ W- and Z rapidity distributions are all dominated by gluon PDF uncertainty and there is cancellation of this uncertainty in the ratio ZW = Z/(W+ + W-) the PDF uncertainty on this ratio is ~1% and there is agreement between PDFsets But the same is not true for the W asymmetry Aw = (W+ - W-)/(W+ + W-) the PDF uncertainty on this ratio is reduced compared to that on the W rapidity spetcra within any one PDF set BUT there is not good agreement between PDF sets- a difference in valence PDFs is revealed mrst04 cteq61 mrst04

MRST04 Dominantly, at LO Aw= (u d – d u) (u d + d u) And u = d = q at small x So Aw~ (u – d) = (uv – dv) (u + d) (uv + dv + 2 q ) Actually this pretty good even quantitatively The difference in valence PDFs you see here does explain the difference in AW CTEQ6.1 uv – dv Q2=Mw2 Of course we will actually measure the lepton asymmetry x- range affecting W asymmetry in the measurable rapidity range

Generate data with 4% error using MRST04 PDF and then include this pseudo-data in the global ZEUS PDF fit The PDF uncertainty is improved by the input of such data and the fit is only able to describe the MRST pseudodata if the valence parametrizations at Q20 are extended to become xV(x) = A xa (1-x)b(1+d √x + c x) . AFTER including AW pseudo-data BEFORE including AW pseudo-data MRST024pseudodata ZEUS-S prediction Conclusion we have valence PDF discrimination, and will be able to measure valence distributions at x~0.005 on proton targets for the first time

LHC is a low-x machine (at least for the early years of running) Is NLO (or even NNLO) DGLAP good enough? The QCD formalism may need extending at small-x MRST03 is a toy PDF set produced without low-x data 200k events of W+- -> e+- generated with MC@NLO using MRST03 and MRST02 Reconstructed Electron Pseudo-Rapidity Distributions (ATLAS fast simulation) MRST02 MRST03 6 hours running Reconstructed e- Reconstructed e+ If something is very different about low-x behaviour it will show up in the our measurable rapidity range

But the TOY PDF is unlikely to be realistic - a better way cold be to look at pt spectra for W and Z production Pt spectra show PDF differences, but also show differences in modelling – e.g. PYTHIA/HERWIG differences Probably needs more sophisticated treatment e.g. RESBOS. There has been an interesting recent calculation of how lack of pt ordering at low-x may affect the pt spectra for W and Z production at the LHC (See hep-ph/0508215)

Pt spectra are also used to measure MW Raw dMW from PDF uncertainties as of today, when using pt(e), is ~20 MeV So we’d better be sure we’ve got the calculations for Pt spectra right < pT(W) > Same pattern dMW(fit)

Example of how PDF uncertainties matter for BSM physics– Tevatron jet data were originally taken as evidence for new physics-- Theory CTEQ6M i These figures show inclusive jet cross-sections compared to predictions in the form (data - theory)/ theory Today Tevatron jet data are considered to lie within PDF uncertainties And the largest uncertainty comes from the uncertainty on the high x gluon

Mc = 2 TeV, no PDF error Mc = 2 TeV, with PDF error Such PDF uncertainties the jet cross sections compromise the LHC potential for discovery. E.G. Dijet cross section potential sensitivity to compactification scale of extra dimensions (Mc) reduced from ~6 TeV to 2 TeV. (Ferrag et al) Mc = 2 TeV, no PDF error Mc = 2 TeV, with PDF error 2XD 4XD 6XD SM

HERA now in second stage of operation (HERA-II) HERA-II projection shows significant improvement to high-x PDF uncertainties Can we know the high-x gluon better? And how might this impact on LHC high-ET jet cross-sections?

And will we be able to use LHC data itself to improve the situation? Recently grid techniques have been developed to NLO cross-sections in PDF fits (e.g ZEUS-JETs fit) This technique can be used for LHC high-ET jet cross-sections Use data at lower PT and higher η-where new physics is not expected

Impact of increasing statistics Impact of decreasing experimental systematic uncertainty Impact of decreasing experimental correlated systematic uncertainty Challenging! Can we decrease Jet Energy Scale systematic to 1%?

Summary PDF uncertainties can compromise both precision SM physics and BSM discovery physics QCD calculations may need to be extended Challenge to experimentalists is in controlling systematics

generator level ATLFAST

uv Q2=Mw2 dv x- range affecting W asymmetry in the measurable rapidity range MRST and CTEQ uv – dv distributions are significantly different : at Q2=MW2 and x~0.006 CTEQ: uv=0.17, dv=0.11, uv-dv=0.06 MRST: uv=0.155, dv=0.11,uv-dv=0.045 Q2=Mw2

CTEQ6.1 dbar MRST02 dbar-ubar ubar Evidence that dbar = ubar for both PDFs at small-x at Q2=MW2 and x~0.006 MRST and CTEQ dbar=ubar=0.7 So Aw=0.06/(0.28+1.4) = 0.036 CTEQ Aw=0.045/(0.265+1.4) = 0.027 MRST…pretty close!

But perhaps we need to look more closely at the tiny difference in dbar-ubar– look at MRST and CTEQ dbar-ubar on a scale blown up by x10 Could this play a role? Without approximations..but still LO, Aw = d (uv-dv) +dv Δ d (uv+dv+2d) -2dΔ –dvΔ Where Δ=dbar-ubar=0.016 for CTEQ Aw = 0.7x(0.06) + 0.11x0.016 0.7X(1.68) – 2x0.7x0.016-0.11x0.016 And Δ=0.010 for MRST AW=0.7x(0.045) + 0.11x0.011 0.7x(1.665) – 2x0.7x0.011-0.11x0.011 The terms involving the difference of ubar and dbar are simply too small to matter compared to the terms involving the valence difference.

Data on the low-x valence distributions comes only from the CCFR/NuTeV data on Fe targets. The data extend down to x~0.01, but are subject to significant uncertainties from heavy target corrections in the low-x region. HERA neutral current data at high-Q2, involving Z exchange, make valence measurements on protons- but data are not yet very accurate and also only extend down to x~0.01 Current PDFs simply have prejudices as to the low-x valence distributions - coming from the input parametrisations. The PDF uncertainties at low x do not actually reflect the real uncertainty (horse’s mouth- Thorne) LHC W asymmetry can provide new information and constraints in the x region 0.0005 < x <0.05

Gluon fractional error HERA now in second stage of operation (HERA-II) substantial increase in luminosity possibilities for new measurements Can we know the high-x gluon better? Gluon fractional error x HERA-II projection shows significant improvement to high-x PDF uncertainties relevant for high-scale physics at the LHC  where we expect new physics !!
