5. Tracey BerryTAPM Meeting June 25 th 2007 5 e/gamma trigger Summary We need a NEVER-TO-BE-PRESCALED single e and photon trigger If there is an e60 – does it mean that the e25 rate is expected to be such that a prescale will be necessary? –If so we also need a g60 (or g40 – whatever will have a rate allowing it to run unprescaled for the lifetime of the trigger list)

Typical trigger combined: lepton+MET (e60 and mu20 or mu40) Or jet +MET (MET only triggers require too high thresholds) Jet triggers useful for background studies

12. Tracey BerryTAPM Meeting June 25 th 2007 12 Combined Triggers Leptoquarks Why is there a mu-jet and no e-jet? - also wanted for leptoquarks e.g. MU20_J40 and e20_J40 ?

13. Tracey BerryTAPM Meeting June 25 th 2007 13 Combined Triggers Any of these of interest to us? Black holes? Is there an e-mu trigger? Would e10_mu6 have too high rate?

19. Tracey BerryTAPM Meeting June 25 th 2007 19 More on electrons: Eff for e60 after L2 ~80% for E T >66- 68GeV, should be ~90% for this trigger Loose IsEM has  =88.1% trigger looses (L1+L2) w.r.t. IsEM for E T =60GeV electrons –Loose: 85.8% (losses mainly due to E T threshold cut) Warning: e25i uses isolation at L1, it becomes inefficient for very high p T electrons, so look at e60 instead Last year we proposed a loose e60 trigger or/and a very loose e120 trigger (just E T plus track in front of calo) and asked for feedback –You should have a look at these issues and tell us what you prefer!

In every case, we have forward jets. We include combined triggers very specific to these analyses, in case we can add them. * Issues: For the signals with W->jj, the combined triggers always rely on the presence of 2 jets. We might also end up with one single jet. * The use of 2fj15: requires investigation - we might have significant model-dependent systematics, if we are not careful. * Should we have 2 different combined triggers, one for very high mass and one for lower mass?

21. Tracey BerryTAPM Meeting June 25 th 2007 21 James Frost – Cambridge ATLAS CSC BH Note Meeting Triggers for Black Holes  Prevailing wisdom is the Black Holes easily pass triggers, esp. jet ones  A preliminary look at trigger efficiencies for BH: L1L2EF Jet160100 2jet120--99.96 3jet6599.9799.8999.84 4jet5099.7199.5399.44 e60100 (EM 60)49.628.85 g60100 (EM 60)63.741.28 mu20i-45.3640.75 met99.55 (XE 50) 100 (met10)  Black Holes do pass jet triggers – could “AND” all the jet triggers  Electron/muon/gamma triggers less efficient – search for these at analysis level  Do we need a dedicated/higher energy jet trigger?
