L3 Filtering: status and plans for the near future D  Collaboration Meeting: 25 th April 2002 Dan Claes and Terry Wyatt, on behalf of the L3 Algorithms group. For more details see, e.g., L3 talk at trigger workshop:

Within a month: L1 L2 L3 tape 500 Hz 30-40Hz Currently: L1 L3 tape. 100 Hz Hz Factor ~ 5 rejection needed Calorimeter-based filtering only (jets, electrons, taus) Next steps (p11.06 release) to commission: Muons, central tracking, track-based primary vertexing, calorimeter non-linearity and hot cell killing. Time budget for L3 i/o, event building, filtering  100 nodes/500 s = 0.2 s

Level 3 Jargon Tool: Does the real work –Unpacks raw data, finds tracks, clusters –Identifies physics objects (e, , , jet, , W, Z) Filter: Applies (simple) cuts on objects e.g. p t (  ) > 5 GeV Filter Script: Defines a L3 trigger condition –Logical.AND. of one or more filters e.g. p t (  ) > 5 GeV.AND. pt(jet) > 10 GeV –If all filters in a script are.TRUE. trigger is satisfied and event is recorded ‘Mark and Pass’: –Selects unbiased sample of input events to be recorded

In order to save processing time: Only a partial reconstruction of each event is performed, depending on the L1/L2 trigger information For each L1/L2 trigger that fires: –One or more L3 filter scripts run –Each script calls the filters/tools necessary for the trigger decision Tool results are kept in case they are needed again in that event Details of which filters/tools are called by each script: determined by the triggerlist and performed by: ScriptRunner Author: Moacyr Souza (Fermilab/LAFEX) L3 central code management: Jon Hays (Imperial)

Short term goal to run a filter L3FMuon with ‘loose’ quality cutting on p T Mainly needed for single muon triggers (which currently have a L1 prescale of ~40) L3TMuon (local muon track reconstruction) original author: Paul Balm (NIKHEF) current responsibles: Christophe Clement (Stockholm), Martijn Mulders (Fermilab), Martin Wegner (Aachen) + L3TMuon uses much of the ‘offline’ muon reco code

L3TMuon Dynamic unpacker commissioned (p ) Longstanding memory leak fixed (p ) Keeping up with updates to the ‘offline’ muon reco code: –new memory leak and timing problems –temporary fixes by adjusting rcp parameters L3FMuon has been run online in special runs

Timing p default rcp parameters (maxopt version running on 1 GHz PIII) mean time/event ~200 ms when run online ~50 out of 200,000 events took more than 30 seconds to process p parameters tuned to reduce time taken: - number of A/BC segments considered - extrapolation step size - number of track-fit iterations mean time/event ~20 ms eliminates time-outs

Efficiency (p T = 5 GeV Monte Carlo single muons) ‘Loose’ L3 muon ‘Tight’ L3 muon Notes: ‘Loose’ efficiency ~80% (cf. geometrical acceptance ~90%) Poor ‘tight’ efficiency in central region (track fit fails to converge – also seen in ‘offline’ reco.)     Default RCP parameters ‘Tuned’ RCP parameters

Rejection measured on data: single muon test runs default parameters tuned parameters centralforward

Thursday 24 th April: –another single muon test run taken (with tuned parameters) –showed no signs of timing or memory problems Get L3FMuon running online full-time –Global_CalMuon6.00 exits with loose L3FMuon hanging off L1 single muon and muon-jet triggers (100% Mark&Pass) Next Steps for L3FMuon

Fix muon reco memory leak Optimise parameters for L3: –Memory/timing efficiency/rejection –Find out why some events take so long to reconstruct Stricter procedures for production releases of ‘offline’ muon reco software –Including a specific requirement for L3FMuon tests BEFORE code changes released to production branch Comparison L2  L3 (e.g., efficiency, momentum resolution) Longer term: We need a serious analysis of the cost/benefit of retaining/breaking the link between L3TMuon and muon reco

Recent progress in L3 central tracking Offline quality unpacking and geometry for L3 Improved SMT-CFT matching –stand-alone tracking filter –track-based primary vertex tool

SMT unpacker: Fully dynamic, parameterized pedestals, noisy strip killing CFT unpacker: replace global threshold with individual channel thresholds up to date thresholds and cable maps Offline quality geometry implemented for SMT and CFT in L3 (Released in p ) When improved thresholds/cable maps/geometry are available: requires no code changes but care in archiving/version-tagging (general problem!) SMT/CFT Unpacking and Geometry Principal author: Robert Illingworth ( Imperial College )

Level 3 Global Track Finding author: Daniel Whiteson ( Berkeley ) Find axial CFT tracks Match stereo CFT clusters Extend into SMT Require 8/8 axial CFT hits if no matched axial SMT hits Require 7/8 axial CFT hits if  3 matched axial SMT hits If CFT axial/stereo match fails: CFT-SMT match done in xy-only but SMT stereo information still used to give 3D tracking (new feature implemented in p ) CFT Tracking Algorithm - L3TCFTTracker Principal author: Ray Beuselink ( IMPERIAL ) P11 tool certification: Robert Illingworth and Chris Barnes ( IMPERIAL )

Current L3 global tracking performance track  (rad) z at dca (cm) Number of axial hits on track CFT only Number of stereo hits on track

Comparison of L3 and offline tracking number of tracks track  (rad) q/p T (GeV -1 ) dca (cm)

Timing for global track tool Time per event (ms) (d0mino - debug version) + about 8 ms per event for unpack tools (1 GHz P3 – maxopt)

Next steps for central tracking Test p version on most recent available data Get it running online full-time! Measure efficiency vs. rejection rate of stand-alone track filter on, e.g., single muon events

A possible plan for filtering on single muon triggers EITHER: Loose L3 muon OR: Central track –(i.e., using ‘redundancy’ to improve efficiency) –N.B. Tracking will not be perfect for a long time –(If you don’t like this, you can always exclude these event by using the L3 trigger names) Longer term: –May need to require track-muon match (at least for low p T ) Tool exists (Paul Balm) –Also investigate track-Calorimeter MIP match Tool under development (Martin Grünewald) We could require an.OR. of:

L3 Primary Vertex needed soon! author: Guilherme Lima (UERJ/Brazil) Has yet to be fully tested on REAL DATA Opportunity for new person to get involved! 1) Histogram technique using SMT hits 2) Track-based L3TVertexFinder author: Ray Beuselinck (Imperial) testing: Chris Barnes, Per Jonsson (Imperial) Recently upgraded to use either CFT or Global candidate tracks as input N.B. Marseille group (Arnaud Duperrin, Mossadek Talby, Eric Kajfasz) hope to be actively involved in testing tracking, vertexing.

Reconstructed vertex position in real data z (cm) ~40 % of events have a vertex reconstructed Next steps: - tune cuts on numbers of hits required (especially for SMT stereo hits) - finish certification

L3TEle Electron Tool authors: Volker Buescher ( Mainz ) Ulla Blumenschein ( Mainz ) Current filter: simple 0.25 cone applying cuts on E T e.m. fraction (>0.9) transverse shower shape ,  : energy weighted cluster axis position

Efficiency in Monte Carlo Events Electron E T (GeV)

Comparison of data and single electron Monte Carlo (trigsim): trigger turn-on curve Electron E T (GeV) Efficiency (%)

Single electron triggers At L1 we have two (unprescaled) single electron triggers: –CEM(1,10) –CEM(2,5) At L3 we run the same two single electron filters: –p T > 15 GeV, emfrac > 0.9 –p T > 12 GeV, emfrac > 0.9, shower shape –Combined rejection factor ~3.5 We do a similar thing with CEM(1,5) (heavily prescaled)

Further developments for single electron triggers More sophisticated treatment of transverse and longitudinal shower shape –Studies in progress Add in parallel to the two current filters: –Higher p T cut and softer e.m. fraction cut? –Stand-alone track filter? –Matched track + looser e.m. cuts? –(Matched pre-shower + looser e.m. cuts)? –Do we have enough L3 trigger bits (256)? –Alternative: have one filter that combines all available information (with details of the trigger decision stored in L3PhysicsResults) When we have to cut harder (soon) this redundancy will help to maintain: –High efficiency –Small systematic error

L3TJet Tool author: Volker Buescher ( Mainz ) high precision calorimeter readout available at L3 sharpen the turn-on curve running online stably since early Sept’01 rejection factors for different triggers e.g., fraction of events passing L3FJet(1,15) p T of leading offline JCCA jet (GeV)

Next Steps (p11.07) Use primary vertex ? Calorimeter non-linearity corrections implemented in calorimeter unpacker (Marumi Kado) Killing of hot cells implemented (Marumi Kado, Gregorio Bernardi have implemented NADA into L3)

Running online since Jan-2002 Example: mu1ptxatxx_CJT(1,3) + L3Tau (pT > 10 GeV) gives rejection factor ~ 5.5 Next step: switch on tracking Z  QCD L3FTauHadronic Level3 TauTool author: Gustaaf Brooijmans (Fermilab) current responsible: Yann Coadou (Upsala) Based on calorimeter jet shape variables

Other tools on a longer timescale missing E T tools to associate objects in different detectors (e.g. track to muon) cps and fps cluster finding and unpacking b-tag: impact parameter, secondary vertex tools to calculate "physics" quantities –(e.g., inv. mass, delta_eta) tools to identify physics event types –(e.g., W, Z, stream definitions) –Keep raw data on reco output of W/Z candidates? Many opportunities for new people to get involved!

L3 Monitoring L3 filter statistics for each trigger available to shift crew via daq_monitor L3 reconstruction results written out with the raw data l3fanalyze program: produces rootuple –Used offline for: testing new code versions checks of data quality –Plan to run online as ‘examine’ – use root to fill monitoring histograms from rootuple

Monitoring Extra person(s) urgently needed to work on this! –macros to define monitoring histograms –common job submission on standard test samples to exercise all the L3 tools/filters (and L2?) –migration to online –"bit-wise" on/offline check –matching L3 objects to MC/L1/L2/reco objects L3 monitoring needs to get a lot more systematic and routine!

Can we do more sophisticated online monitoring in the L3 nodes? For example, collect histograms, measure efficiencies –L3 does a pretty complete reconstruction of the data Make use of the 95% of the events that we reject? –Measure trigger turn-on curves (for L1 and L2 as well as L3) –Do background studies –(Why write out events and have the huge overhead in having to run offline reconstruction and storing them permanently if they are needed for relatively simple operations that can be performed adequately in L3?) –Write out a stream with L3PhysicsResults and no raw data? –Write out an ‘insurance’ or ‘not for reco’ stream? Best way to concatenate results from monitor processes running on each of the 100 L3 farm nodes not worked out yet.

Will require extra resources at L3, but the potential return (in terms of spotting trigger problems and in saving offline resources) might make this a very cost-effective investment. This will also be the case if we find that lack of cpu power is limiting the sophistication of the event reconstruction and/or filtering that is possible in L3.

L3 central infrastructure: opportunities for new people to get involved Scriptrunner + central L3 code infrastructure, release management Calibration/alignment technical infrastructure L3 reconstruction results on thumbnail Streaming Development of "user" and "physics analysis" tools

Conclusions, outlook. Currently: –Calorimeter-based filtering (jets, electrons, taus) only –Factor ~ 5 rejection needed at L3 Next steps (p11.06) to commission: –Muons, central tracking, track-based primary vertexing, calorimeter non-linearity and hot cell killing. Within a month: –DAQ improvements L3 input rate 500 Hz. In the next few months: –L1 tracks, L1 calorimeter acceptance and large tiles –L2 rejection increasing –L3 input rate 1000 Hz –Higher luminosity –Lots of interesting challenges and scope for new people
