Xiaorong Wang, Heavy Flavor Workshop at UIC, June, 2012 The challenge: backgrounds (  ->μ and K-> μ) overwhelm the signal.  Flying distance and decay angle are different. Get DCA components in r (higher resolution) and phi (moderate resolution).  Significant improvement in angular resolution of track leading to dimuons mass resolution  Track isolation cut will suppress hadrons from jet for W measurement  Joint tracking with MuTr. Track χ 2 cut will discriminate muon from hadron background. 8
