CDF Run II Data

CDF Efficiency > 80%

DAQ runs with 5% to 10% dead timeRest coming from very careful operation of detector’s HV due to machine losses (…to preserve silicon & trackers…)

CDF -> ~450 pb-1 on tape

In proton-antiproton collisions we can occasionally have a “hard” parton-parton scattering resulting in

large transverse momentum outgoing partons.

Final-State Radiation

The Jet Algorithm Allows us to “see” the partons (or at least their fingerprints) in the

final hadronic state.

Jet algorithms & physics

• Final state partons are revealed through collimated flows of hadrons called jets

• Measurements are performed at hadron level & theory is parton level (hadron parton transition will depend on parton shower modeling)

• Precise jet search algorithms necessary to compare with theory and to define hard physics

• Natural choice is to use a cone-based algorithm in - space (invariant under longitudinal boost)

Run II -> MidPoint algorithm

1. Define a list of seeds using CAL towers with E > 1 GeV

2. Draw a cone of radius R around each seed and form “proto-jet”

3. Draw new cones around “proto-jets” and iterate until stable cones

4. Put seed in Midpoint (-) for each pair of proto-jets separated by less than 2R and iterate for stable jets

5. Merging/Splitting

Comparison of JetClu and MidPoint for HERWIG MC

Differences between MidPoint and JetClu found to be due to “ratcheting”.

JetClu 0.5-2% higher ET jets

W/Z/+jets) production: introduction

QCD-wise, are W/Z/ cross sections of interest?

Smaller subset of diagrams, different mix of initial partons Below is a set of LO diagrams for W/Z and W/Z/ + 1 jet

Inclusive distributions are not affected by jet finding uncertainties

More theoretical work is needed, e.g.: W inclusive: known at the level of NNLO W + 1 jet: known at the level of NLO W + 2, 3, 4 jets: known at the level of LO

(MCFM does proved W + 2 jets at NLO, it just isn’t an event generator)

W+jet(s) Production (JetClu R=0.4)• Background to top and Higgs Physics

• Stringent test of pQCD predictions

• Test Ground for ME+PS techniques (Special matching MLM, CKKW to avoid double counting on ME+PS interface)

Alpgen + HerwigLO large uncertainty

W + 1 parton +PS

QCD corrections cover this difference.

Summary Tevatron and CDF are performing well

Data samples already significantly exceed those of Run I On track for accumulating 4-8 fb-1 by 2009

Robust QCD program is underway Jets, photons, W+jets, heavy flavors

Jet energy scale is the dominant systematics – improvements on the wayHeavy flavor identification is working well

Verifying and tuning tools: NLO calculations, Monte Carlo generators, resummation techniques, combining ME with PS

NLO does well for hard aspectsLO + Pythia give reasonable description of W+n jets

We don’t see any discrepancies.
