Method to measure a Minimum Bias Vertex Distribution
(A. Quadt & O. Ruske, ZN 98-36)
• Divide the CTD into three overlapping regions.
• Apply cuts to Neutral Current events in these regions. Cuts are based on geometry of CTD/CAL to have constant efficiency in each region.
• Measure e with CAL hit and optimum h with CTD.
Z (cm) Ee,min (GeV) E-Pz (GeV) rad,max hadronic
Region 1 [-100, -40] 16 35 - 65 2.65 0.5 – 1.57Region 2 [-50, 50] 18 35 - 65 2.81 0.85 – 2.24Region 3 [40, 100] 15 35 - 65 2.89 1.57 – 2.63

Problems with old reweighting:
Q2 range in MC sample
Problem in normalization of regions
Bias in regions 1 and 3 (RCAL/FCAL)
Bias in Wodarczyk’s method for Z > 50 cm

Changes to old method
In reg. 2 and 3 e had to be raised to match MC Q2 range + in reg. 3 e>2.69 to eliminate bias (dead material?) h was raised to have more stereo hits in optimum hadronic tracks
Regions normalised with 1/Eff; Eff calculated using flat vertex MC

Independent minimum bias method used for tests
(M. Wodarzcyk)
• Guarantee that there are always good tracks: either electron or hadrons.

Problem: Not using electron seed vertex low efficiency for Z > 50 cm (hadronic tracks)

Efficiency determination with flat vertex MC
Good enough to get vertex distribution
More flat vertex Monte Carlo on the way
Still some bias in region 1 ?

Fit to data vertex distribution
2/ndf = 88.7/73 …not bad !
Fitted 5 gaussians to 98/99 data min. bias vertex distribution
Satellite pairs is constrained but not distance from main peak
Neglected Z<-88cm and Z>82cm in fit but points still used to get reweighting factors
Shapes of 98 MC generated vertex and 98/99 data min. bias vertex

Comparison with Wodarczyk’s method
Good agreement (except for Z < -85 cm). For Z>50 cm Wodarczyk’s points should not be taken into account.
For -50<Z<-40 two methods are now within 2 or better.

Reweighting routine VtxZCorr version 6.3
• Can be used to reweight distributions found in 1998/99 Monte Carlo generated with 1997 vertex distribution.
VtxZCorr63(zvertex,toyear,weight,errcode)
Input:
zvertex Z coordinate of “true” vertex of the generated event.
toyear year of data taking to which the MC is being reweighted (1998, 1999 or 9899).
Output:
weight statistical weight of the event in the distributions.
errcode 0 means OK, 1 means Error.

Chris test of the reweighting with SFEW cuts
Essentially OK, but MC overshoots data for Z<-60 cm and Z>70 cm

Comparison of reweighted/unreweighted
MC to 98/99 data in bins of Z - Q2DA

Comparison of reweighted/unreweighted MC
to 98/99 data in bins of Z - e
Points at high e low Q2 lower Q2 MC needed?
Test best done with MC generated with new distribution

Fits to X and Y minimum bias vertex distributions
•X and Y vertex obtained from same selection as Z vertex.
• Normalization between regions as for the Z vertex
X vertex: mean = -0.0243 0.0005 cm
= 0.1192 0.0005 cm
Y vertex: mean = 0.0448 0.0004 cm
= 0.0899 0.0003 cm
