NC Energy Estimators 2 Philip Rodrigues 27/03/2007
Story so far… Look at peak and RMS of (E reco -E true )/E true –Choice of reco and true Whether to include true CC events –(Yes) Only ND so far
This week... Far detector too Whether to include E lepton in truth Performance as function of true E
Method (same as before) Hedge my bets: –Run with different E true –Run with/without CC bg –Run with different E reco 1.Plot (E reco -E true )/E true 2.Fit gaussian to peak 3.Scale E reco until fit peaks at 0
Including E lepton in truth Without E l : Misidentified true CC events bias scale With E l : True CC events peak at same place as NC (no bias) True CC peak more symmetrical and narrower Conclusion: always include true CC and E lepton from now on...
Near Best 3 reco/true pairs: RecoTrueCalib RMS deweightCCtrueVisibleE + E l deweightCCshowerE + E l deweightNCtrueVisibleE+E l 0.369
Near – performance vs E Top: position of peak Bottom: RMS times sqrt(E) deweightCC flatter, but deweightNC better resolution at high E
Far Best 3 reco/true pairs: RecoTrueCalib RMS deweightNCtrueVisibleE + E l deweightNCshowerE + E l deweightCCtrueVisibleE+E l 0.298
Far – performance vs E Now not much difference in flatness, but deweightNC better resolution at high E
Summary ‘Calibrating’ for all NC selected including true CC : –loses very little –potentially gains a lot –requires E lepton to be included in truth Not sure which estimator to recommend
