1. Stefan E. Müller Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati The determination of  had with the KLOE detector Euridice Collaboration Meeting Kazimierz, 24-27 August 2006 (for the KLOE collaboration)

2. Introduction Three important formulas for a  had : 1.Dispersion integral: 2.Application of Radiator Function: 3.Extracting the ISR cross section from the observed spectrum: I will (mainly) concentrate on the last one, and speak only about the  channel.

3. An experimentalist‘s guide to Measuring s ppg with the KLOE detector (short version) (For long version, see Phys. Lett. B606 (2005) 12 KLOE Notes 202, 189 KLOE Memos 308, 295, 294, 292, 291, 287, 283, 278 PhD Theses F. Nguyen, S. M., B. Valeriani)

4.  had via ISR: While the Energy scan seems the natural way to measure  had, the experience at DA  NE and PEP- II has shown that the Radiative Return via Initial State radiation (ISR) has to be considered as a complementary approach: Data comes as By-Product of the standard program of the machine, no dedicated runs necessary Overall energy scale √s=m  well known and applies to all values of M had Advantages: Systematic errors from Luminosity, √s, rad. corr., … enter only once and do not need to be studied for every point in s Issues: Requires precise theoretical cal- culations of the radiator function H - PHOKHARA MonteCarlo (see Talk of H. Czyż ) Requires good suppression (or understanding) of Final State Radiation (FSR) – find effective selection cuts – test model of scalar QED with data (charge asymmetry) Needs high luminosity

11. Final State Radiation: The cross section for e + e -  +  - has to be inclusive with respect to final state radiation events in order to evaluate a   We consider two kinds of FSR contributions: ** ** LO-FSR: No initial state radiation, e + and e - collide at the energy M  =1.02 GeV NLO-FSR: Simultaneous presence of one photon from initial state radiation and one photon from final state radiation In both cases, the presence of  FSR results in a shift of the measured quantity M 2   towards lower values: M 2     

12.

14. Background eval.: a)First make sure that MC reproduces data distributions in a satisfactory way by matching individual datataking conditions run-by-run (int. Luminosity,√s, machine background,…) by tuning (smearing, shifting,…) MonteCarlo distributions Trkmass (MeV) - MonteCarlo  Data Before curing MC:After curing MC: dN/dM trk

15. Background eval.: b)Estimate background contribution by Summing all absolutely normalized background distributions from MC (works well for small background contamination) or Fit signal+background MC distributions (in slices of M 2  ) to data distribution with free normalization parameters M Trk [MeV] Data   Events 0.84< M 2  < 0.86 GeV 2 N  =0.951±0.004 N  =0.994±0.006 Normalization parameters:  

16. Efficiencies: Efficiencies are defined as    = N sel,ppg / N in,ppg (>>  bkg  = N sel,bkg / N in,bkg ), have to be evaluated for each selection step in each bin of M 2   (usually, they are not flat!). Always First step (and last resort…): trust detector simulation and use efficiencies from MonteCarlo Intermediate steps: Use downscaled events retained during the data taking try to find independent control samples from data Reprocess some data from “raw” data files try to prove that MC is describing the reality, then use MC Tune MC distributions till they match data distributions find someone else doing it for you! (e.g. Photon detection efficiency also needed by other analysis groups) … One needs to evaluate the efficiency on the signal events! (preferrably from data!)

17. Luminosity: At KLOE, Luminosity is measured using „Large angle Bhabha“ events (55 o <  e <125 o )  KLOE is its own Luminosity Monitor! 2 independent generators used for radiative corrections: –BABAYAGA (Pavia group):  eff = (431.0  0.3 stat ) nb C. M. Carloni Calame et al., Nucl. Phys., B584, 459, 2000 –BHAGENF (Berends modified):  eff = (430.7  0.3 stat ) nb F. Berends and R. Kleiss, Nucl. Phys., B228, 537, 1983 E. Drago and G. Venanzoni, Report INFN-AE-97-48, 1997 Both groups of authors quote a systematic uncertainty of 0.5% The luminosity is given by the number of Bhabha events divided for an effective cross section obtained by folding the theory (QED rad. Corr.) with the detector simulation.
