Institute for Theoretical Physics, Dresden University of Technology

Our aim for this workshop series: proving that the SHERPA MC is ready forLHC studies.

validating the SHERPA (CKKW) approach against Tevatron data

validating it against other ME PS merging approaches

verifying that it gives reliable results in new (so far untested) channels

making predictions : extrapolation to LHC energies

MI model of SHERPA has been shown to work well (HERA/LHC proceedings)

Sorry...!!! SHERPA is still not a MC event generator for DIS scenarios.

Sherpa vs. DØ in Z + jets

Challenge: future (and present) hadron collider experiments.

LHC: first re-discover SM physics

LHC: these signals will be tomorrow’s backgrounds

LHC: tremendously large phase space for QCD radiation

LHC: is a QCD machine Multijets

LHC physics: need to understand SM backgrounds

Model...!!! Jet production Jet evolution Hadronization

SHERPA: AMEGIC++’s MEs CKKW APACIC++ Shower

SHERPA: PYTHIA (phenomenological) Models

The Z/γ∗+jet-production DØ analysisNames related with this analysis:

Henrik Nilsenunder supervision of Prof. Karl Jacobs, DØ group Freiburg.

Scope:Study accuracy of modelling associated jet production in Z/γ∗ eventsMCs: PYTHIA and SHERPAData: Fermilab Tevatron Run II, Oct 2002 - Nov 2005, int lum 950 pb−1

Some details:

e−, e+ with pT > 25 GeV, |η| < 2.5, one central ` with |η| < 1.1

variety of single and di-electron triggers, optimized likelihood function to separatereal electrons from QCD jet production BG

70 GeV ≤ m2(e−, e+) ≤ 100 GeV

jets according to DØ Run II cone algorithm, pT > 15 GeV, ∆R`j > 0.5

some more work to suppress fake jets and to avoid electron contamination

Gaussian smearing of jet energies in MC events

+ data zero bias events overlayed to account for other pp in same beam crossingJan Winter HERA/LHC workshop at CERN, Geneva, June 7, 2006 – p.4

The Z/γ∗+jet-production DØ analysisPYTHIA:

version 6.319 using CTEQ6L1 PDF

tuned to match a ME prediction for Z/γ∗ + 1 jet production

UE model: TUNE A parameter set

SHERPA:

version 1.0.6 with CTEQ6L PDF

inclusive Z/γ∗ + 3 jet sample, i.e. ME’s up to 3 jets included

internal separation cut kT,0 = 20 GeV

UE model: default (set up according to data used for R. Field’s TUNE A)

Processing:

• full DØ detector simulation and reconstruction chain

• normalization is to total number of Z/γ∗ events found in data sample

• systematic uncertainties: main contributions arise from jet energy scale andsmearing of jet energies

Strategy:

Divide multijet phase space into two regimes.apply cut Qsep on MEs to regularize divergencies.implies large, unphysical Qsep dependence for fixed multiplicity.jet production through the tree level MEs.jet evolution down to fragmentation scale through the PS.

Reweight MEs by a combined coupling and Sudakov weight to get exclusivesamples at given resolution scale Qsep.

Veto on PS configurations that are already included through higher order ME.

Reweighting and vetoing eliminate/sizeably reduce the Qsep dependence.

SHERPA in the Z+jet-production DØ analysisBrief note: SHERPA uses MI model mainly based on Sjöstrand/Zijl ansatz.

1st results have been presented in the “HERA and the LHC” proceedings:hep-ph/0601012,13

AMISIC++ has been set up to also work with the CKKW merging of SHERPA.

HPs with FS multiplicities different from two require unique definition of the MIstart scale.

Employ kT jet clustering algorithm to identify the last QCD node of the HP thatneeds to be clustered.

Its p2⊥ defines the start scale for the MI evolution, and also the veto scale

for the subsequent PS,

since PSs are attachedto the secondary interactionsinitiated atthe QCD scaleµ2

QCD = 2stu/(s2 + t2 + u2).

Conclusions from our point of view:

First of all, many thanks go to ...

SHERPA has been passed through a full detector simulation and it worked.

Our implemented MI model reasonably/smoothly fits into the CKKW machinery ofSHERPA.

For characteristics,multijets⇒ jet multiplicities and spectra,angular correlations,

we have been expected to describe them well, we succeeded.

Global normalization seems to be sufficient.
