Daniele Benedetti CMS and University of Perugia Chicago 07/02/2004 Conclusions With the L1 Trigger (4 jets with E T >50 GeV) we obtain 65% signal efficiency at ~200 Hz of QCD rate. With the High Level Trigger we can decrease the QCD rate to 30 Hz still selecting 60% of signal events. …next steps Study the offline reconstruction and estimate the signal significance with respect to the resonant backgrounds.
