  1. Boson + jets production and the search for New Physics Monica D’Onofrio IFAE-Barcelona Results from D0 and CDF collaborations IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8th May 2006

  2. Going beyond the Standard Model: Supersymmetry Squarks/gluinos production as Golden signature for SUSY at the LHC, but also at the Tevatron Key points: Jet Reconstruction Background estimations Use Tevatron Data on Boson + jets production: Important by itself as QCD measurement Z and photon + jet used to define jet energy correction Test ground of Monte Carlo generators Latest results from the Tevatron on squarks/gluinos searches Extension to possible non-SUSY searches Summary and future plans Outline IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  3. Thanks to R.Kolb The Standard Model Higgs • Matter is made out of fermions: • 3 generations of quarks and leptons • Forces are carried by Bosons: • Electroweak: ,W,Z • Strong: gluons • Higgs boson: • Gives mass to particles  Not found yet • Remarkably successful description of known phenomena but ... The Standard Model is theoretically incomplete • Mass hierarchy problem • radiative correction in Higgs sector • Unification • Dark Matter • Matter-antimatter asymmetry .. Many good reasons to believe there is unknown physics beyond SM IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  4. The Hierarchy problem The SM requires a non-vanishing VEV for the Higgs at the minimum of the potential V if m2H < 0, VEV results in: Experimentally, <H> = 174 GeV and m2H ~ –(100 GeV)2 + quantum corrections from virtual effects of particles coupling to Higgs field Fermion loop loop of scalar particles UV ultraviolet cutoff Mass of Higgs scalar with quantum corrections is kept small only with fine tuning of the parameters! Possible solution: introduce a symmetry to cancel all dangerous contributions IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  5. Supersymmetry • New symmetry relating fermions and bosons to cancel out contributions to Dm2H : Supersymmetry • Minimal SuperSymmetric SM (MSSM): • Mirror spectrum of particles • Enlarged Higgs sector (two doublets with 5 physical states) • Define R-parity = (-1)3(B-L)+2s • R = 1 for SM particles, R = -1 for MSSM partners  if R-parity is conserved, sparticles produced in pair, Lightest Supersymmetric Particle (LSP) is stable Q|Boson> = Fermion Q|Fermion> = Boson IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  6. What’s Nice about SUSY? SM With SUSY • Unifications of forces possible • Dark matter candidate exists: • LSP stable if R-parity is conserved • Typically LSP is the lightest neutralino • Current mass limit > 43 GeV • Abundance of neutralino matches Dark Matter density in the Universe • Naturally solve the hierarchy problem • No fine-tuning required • Changes relationship between mW, mtop and mH IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  7. EWK GUT Symmetry breaking • No SUSY particles found as yet: • SUSY must be broken: breaking mechanism determines phenomenology • More than 100 parameters even in minimal (MSSM) models! choose a model ! • mSUGRA • New superfields in “hidden” sector • Interact gravitationally with MSSM • Soft SUSY breaking • 5 parameters at GUT scale • 1. Unified gaugino mass m1/2 • 2. Unified scalar mass m0 • 3. Ratio of H1, H2 vevs tanβ • 4. Trilinear coupling A0 • 5. Higgs mass term sgn() IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  8. Sparticles cross sections T. Plehn, PROSPINO (pb) • At LHC: pp collisions, √s = 14 TeV • Strongly interacting particles • High cross sections for gluinos andsquarksproduction •  Golden signature! T. Plehn, PROSPINO (pb) m (GeV) At Tevatron: pp collisions, √s = 1.96 TeV • Smaller cross sections • Similar environment (background ..) •  already a good place to look for new physics! m (GeV) IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  9. The Tevatron Highest-energy accelerator currently operational Peak luminosity 1.8 *1032 cm-2 s-1 Integrated luminosity/week  about 25 pb-1 CDF and D0: ~1.2 fb-1on tape Analyses shown here use 0.3 – 1.0 fb -1 IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  10. CDF and D0 in RunII CDF • Both detectors • Silicon microvertex tracker • Solenoid • High rate trigger/DAQ • Calorimeters and muons D0 L2 trigger on displaced vertices Excellent tracking resolution Excellent muon ID and acceptance Excellent tracking acceptance || < 2-3 IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  11. Missing ET 103 s (pb) Multiple jets 1 10-3 Missing ET 10-6 10-9 Phys.Rev.D59:074024,1999 300 500 700 Squarks and Gluinos at Tevatron • Squarks / gluinos pair production Signature: energetic jets + Missing transverse Energy (from the undetected LSP) • Consider mSUGRA scenario: • A0 =0, m < 0, tan b = 3 or 5 • 5 flavors degenerate IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  12. Background Background processes dominate  Need to be specifically rejected: W/Z+jets with Wl or Z, DiBoson and tt production Signatures very similar to SUSY QCDmultijets production dominates:  Missing ET due to jet energy mismeasurements • Key factors • Good understanding of Jet reconstruction and Energy calibration tools • Careful study of Monte Carlo generators (usually at LO), to be tested on data in a regime not sensitive to the signal. IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  13. QCD Background QCD multijets present Missing ET from mismeasurement of jet transverse energy • A jet is a composite object: • complex underlying physics • depends on detector properties • Corrections for different effects: • calorimeter response to hadrons (non-linear and non-compensating calorimeter) • Multiple parton interactions • Underlying event Time For Calibrations: use Ze+e- and Minimum Ionizing Particles (as J/) For Corrections: use MC simulations tuned using tracking detector  model single particle response (E/p) IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  14. CDF Jet Energy Scale Method Different correction factors: • (frel)Relative Corrections  Make response uniform in h • (MPI)Multiple Particle Interactions  Energy from different ppbar interaction • (fabs)Absolute Corrections  Calorimeter non-linear and non-compensating • (UE)Underlying Event  Energy associated with spectator partons in a hard collision CDF Run II Absolute correction factor PT jet(R) = [ PT jetraw(R)  frel (R) – MPI(R)]  fabs(R) - UE(R) Total systematic uncertainties for JES  between 2% and 3% IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  15. Data • Pythia • Herwig g (Z) + jet pT balance • g/Z + jet used for many cross checks • Also: to define JES uncertainties •  difference between data and MC • ET leading jet > 25 GeV • ET (second jet) < 3 GeV • Df (Jet-g) > 3 Sensitive to radiation effects when allow second jet: Herwig farther away from jet cone pT balance: Agreement Data/MC within 3% IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  16. Missing Transverse Energy (MET) • Calorimeter based MET: • Clean-up cuts: to remove cosmics and beam-halo bkds • must be corrected for primary vertex, additional interactions, jets (calorimeter resolution), muons (here rejected) Also: MET resolution depends on event SET  MET reconstruction more challenging in multiple-collision environment (Pile-up) Correction ~ 12% at low MET IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  17. Good shape ZONE 3 ZONE 4 Good shape ZONE 1 ZONE 2 QCD Background Estimation Define HT = E T jet2 + E T jet3 + MET Identify region in MET vs HT, dominated by jet events • Use PYTHIA in different pT bins • Compared distributions MC events to data to find NLO factor and obtained scale factor to the MC ~1.0 QCD Rejection Df (MET, jeti)> 0.7 for three leading jets IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  18. Example of one generated signal point in [mq,mg] plane ~ ~ Non-QCD Backgrounds • W en + 2/3 jets • W t n + 2 jets • Z  nn + 3 jets • Top • DiBosons • OTHER BACKGROUNDS: • Partial rejection, i.e.: • lepton-veto • Cut on M mm/ee for Z+jets • Need to estimateremaining irreducable backgrounds Missing Transverse energy From Leading Order MC  Test MC-LO tools  Perform a dedicate study to define NLO/LO scale (“k-factor”) IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  19. Top cross section Top cross section in good agreement with SM prediction:  use theory Measurements in all channels using different methods consistent. Most precise single measurement ~14%! Combined CDF measurements ~14%! IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  20. W+jets production • Background also to top and Higgs Physics • Testing ground for pQCD in multijet environment • Sample to test LO and NLO ME+PS predictions + PS LO predictions: ALPGEN+Pythia normalized to data integrated cross sections Differential cross section w.r.t. ET jet spectrum in W+n jets inclusive sample Differential cross section w.r.t. di-jet DR in the W+2 jet inclusive sample IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  21. jet parton beam remnants anti-proton proton Underlying Event (UE) Z + jets production • Same good features of W+jets: • Presence of a boson ensures high Q2 • Large BR into leptons • No New Physics expected in Z+jets • s(Z) ~ s(W) / 10, but Ze+e- cleaner  to study all aspects of hadronic collisions and relative simulation. • LO andNLOcalculations • Pythia, Herwig: •  shower, ME (Z+1 parton) • Alpgen, Sherpa, Madgraph: • ME with shower (Z + multi-parton) • MCFM: NLO ME (Z +1, 2 or 3 partons) IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  22. f=0 Z transverse plane calorimeter towers |Y| < 0.7 Z+jets event topology O.Salto et al. Integrated jet shape • Event selection • Z  e+e- with |he|< 2.8 • PTjet > 25 GeV/c, |Yjet|< 2.1 PT profile of cal towers Pythia with the Tune A is the simulation that better reproduce Jet fragmentation and Underlying Event Underlying event Jet fragmentation IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  23. PTin and PTout Sum of the components of the momentum of the track parallel and transversal to the plane defined by the Z particle direction and the beam axis. PTout Some “clean” events (very low pTtrk in the event) in the data. Well simulated by Alpgen+Herwig. Pythia puts always a certain amount of extra activity (UE tuning) • Using tracks with: • pT > 0.5 GeV/c • |z0| < 1.5 cm • d0 < 2.0 cm Z PTin PTout beam PTin G.Marchesini et al., JHEP 0108(2001) 047 hep-ph/0106278 IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  24. Inclusive pTjet distribution PT distribution of the jets in events with Z + ≥n jets Pythia Alpgen+Herwig Every MC distribution is normalized to the number of entries in the data While Pythia reproduces well the shape of the pT distributions, Alpgen+Herwig underestimates jets with low pT due to the lack of UE • For Alpgen, check impact of interfaced shower • Use Alpgen + Pythia Tune A IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  25. Alpgen+Pythia PT of the first leading jet Interfacing Alpgen ME with Pythia gives slightly better agreement in shape but further tuning could be necessary (still 10% difference) MC distribution is normalized to the number of entries in the data Issue: Alpgen + PS not have the correct absolute normalization PT of the first leading jet Data/MC ~ 1.4 Data and MC distribution normalized to relative integrated luminosity • Parton-level checks: same cross sections • for Pythia and Alpgen+Pythia (Z+1p) • Z+n partons processes simulated with • Alpgen depends on many parameter: • Shower evolution • parton-jet matching • Q2 scale  effects? IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  26. For Alpgen ME use: Q2 = mZ2 + S pT2(partons) Use 2 different scales for Pythia: Default: ~ Q2 = mZ2 + S pT2/2 New Scale: ~ Q2 = mZ2 + S pT2 Pythia default/Pythia New Scale Def/NScale PT leading jet Q2 scale effects PYTHIA (Tune A) • No negligible effects (~10%), important to evaluate NLO/LO k-factors  Use MCFM: same LO scale required at NLO • Does not explain the 1.4 factor for Alpgen + Parton Shower • Data suggest Pythia default Q2 • Tests on-going: discussions with M.Mangano foreseen next week Absolute normalization IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  27. MCFM • Parton-Level Monte Carlo: • NLO event integrator • In the Matrix Element Calculation |M|2: • Complementary approach to LO showering event generators • Give aprediction of total cross section and distribution at parton level but is not a fully implemented event generator IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  28. Jet multiplicity LO calculations → expected less events with high jet multiplicity. Pythia: simulation of the parton shower leads to an accurate number of jets. Distributions normalized to the first bin ME + PS: MADGRAPH + Pythia tree level process up to 3 partons  reproduce shape of Njet MCFM good description of the measured cross sections IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  29. Interesting to cross check other showering generators Sherpa LO MC seems to give good description in term of Jet Multiplicity although a bit high. Z+jets with Sherpa IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  30. Summary of Backgrounds • For Boson + jets and DiBoson (negligible here) • Use Alpgen + Herwig: in the process of implementing Pythia Parton Shower and tune it on Z(e+e-)+jets. • Also: many developments on going for Alpgen ME • MCFM used to define NLO/LO For top production: theoretical calculations For QCD multijets: Data Further background reduction can be achieved optimizing Signal/Bkg IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  31. mSUGRA signal X.Portell et al. Scan squark-gluino mass plane PYTHIA Tune A: - No stop and no sbottom - tan(β) = 5, Sgn μ = -1, A0 = 0 - Normalize to PROSPINO NLO σ calculation (consider each production component separately) - Compared with ISAJET: same mq,g harder distributions due to low ISR ~~ Squarks and Gluino production: • squark-antisquark • squark-squark (and c.c.) • gluino-gluino • squark-gluino (and c.c.) 4 cases IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  32. Analysis strategy In the squark-gluino mass plane, define three zones as signal regions in terms of jet ET, MET, HT  HT = ET jet1 + ET jet2 + ET jet3 • Signal region determined by optimizing S/√B • Compare number of expected events from SM background with observed events in 371 pb-1 of data Zone A: HT > 230 GeV MET > 75 GeV ET1 > 95 GeV ET2 > 55 GeV Zone B: HT > 280 GeV MET > 90 GeV ET1 > 120 GeV ET2 > 70 GeV Zone C: HT > 330 GeV MET > 120 GeV ET1 > 140 GeV ET2 > 100 GeV IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  33. Data VS MC: Zone A as example HT distribution after applying all the cuts except HT >230 GeV MET distribution after applying all the cuts except MET >75 GeV Background compositions after all cuts being applied IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  34. Systematic uncertainties • Energy scale:  1s variation • Luminosity: 6% • Renormalization scale • ISR/FSR: < 10% • PDF: largest effect (30%) on signal, 20% for QCD • Signal  PROSPINO default: • gluino-gluino  m = Mgl • gluino-squark  m= 1/2 * [Mgl + Msq] • squark-squark  m= Msq • squark-antisquark  m = Msq • Background  MCFM default: • Z  m = MZ • W  m= MW Same coupling.. Susy QCD ..as example Considered variations of twice and half the scale to calculate the uncertainty:  effect of 20% (10% on QCD) IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  35. PDF uncertainties O.Norniella et al. Used Hessian method for PDF in PROSPINO and MCFM: at LO CTEQ6.1L, at NLO CTEQ6.1M  important for signal due to high-x gluon contribution Forward jets measurements help to distinguish between new physics and PDF if any excess in the central region Big uncertainty for high-x gluon PDF Uncertainty on gluon PDF (from CTEQ6) Five regions in jet rapidity explored IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  36. Results Good consistency between Data and SM Background XY view of event with large MET ET(1st) = 172 GeV HT = ET(1st) + ET(2nd) + ET(3rd) = 404 GeV ET(2nd) = 153 GeV ET (3rd) = 80 GeV ET(4th) = 65 GeV Missing ET = 223 GeV IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  37. Exclusion limits • No excess found w.r.t. Standard Model background  estabilish exclusion limits on gluino and squark production • Bayesian technique applied to exclude a range of mq, mg to a 95% C.L. • Correlated (JES, PDF, Luminosity) and uncorrelated (statistic, renormalization scale, ISR/FSR) uncertainties also included in the limit calculation • For each point of the three different zones, expected and observed s95 is found. Cross section along squark masses (gluino mass = constant) Cross section along the diagonal (gluino mass ~ squark mass) IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  38. Limits: CDF and D0 • On going development: • Use >1 fb-1 of CDF data • Extend analysis to 4 jets • to further constrain high • squark mass region. IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  39. Large Extra –Dimensions:  n extra dimensions (≥ 2) compactified  Effective Planck scale: Non Susy searches: an example M2Planck ~ Rn(MD)n+2 with MD ~ 1 TeV • Possible signatures: • Virtual Graviton exchange: • Excess in Dilepton mass • Direct production: • MET + recoiling jet (monojet) • 265 ±30 events predicted • 263 events observed No excess observed IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  40. Conclusions • In 2005, Tevatron achieved the 1 fb-1 goal • 1.2 fb-1 on tape ready for data analyses! • Very rich searches physics program ongoing at CDF • Tevatron is currently one of the best places to search for new physics and test MC tools Very important for the LHC • Squarks and gluinos pair production constitutes the Golden Signature for the LHC • Parallel efforts on Di-Leptons, Z+jets and SUSY are mandatory. • A lot of work on different (but correlated!) topics is necessary. Thanks to the whole CDF-IFAE team, especially to Olga Norniella, Xavier Portell, Oriol Salto! IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  41. Back up

  42. Calorimeter calibration Use Ze+e- mass peak stability • Use Minimum Ionizing Particles: • J/ and W • Peak HAD and EM calorimeter • Time dependence IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  43. Tuning of CDF simulation Measure p of particles using tracking, E from HAD and EM calorimeter  Use isolated tracks from Minimum Bias data  E/p used to tune simulation (GFLASH parametrization) Plug calorimeter Central calorimeter IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  44. Z-jet pT balance • Selection • two e(m) with ET>18 GeV (pT>20 GeV) • 76 < M ee(mm) < 106 GeV • ET leading jet > 25 GeV • ET (second jet) < 3 GeV • Df (Jet-Z) > 3 Similar Herwig behaviour for Z+jet w.r.t. g+jet but less visible IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  45. JES Systematic uncertainties Total systematic uncertainties for JES  between 2 and 3% as a function of corrected transverse jet momentum IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  46. Possible effects of low ISR … Preliminary MC studies (1999) at the LHC suggested that SUSY could be discovered via the jet+MET channel within weeks after LHC started 1999 TDR 2005 evaluation Signal uses now Pythia (IsaSUGRA for ME) Additional changes in tools Used on the background  Very dependent from MC!! IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  47. S/√B Optimization: Example Example of HT optimization: s56 is a low squark mass point and s61 is a high squark mass point. A common threshold is taken for all the points in the zone: 280 GeV. Mgl ~ 295 GeV/c2 IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  48. Exclusion limits: more details • The program needs Nobs events, Nexp backgrounds and the Lum.*Efficiency for the signal point. • Include as uncorrelated uncertainties: statistical uncert. and ISR/FSR • Include as correlated uncertainties all the rest: JES, PDF, Luminosity, Renormalization Scale. • The theoretical uncertainties for the sigma cross section (PDF and Renorm.) are also introduced in the program. Rescale the PDFs to 1 sigma uncertainty (Hessian method gives 1.64 sigma). • For the expected limits, perform pseudo-experiments with a Poisson fluctuation using the formula: For large number of expected events (>10) we can use the approximation Nobs=Nexp (rounding up) • Calculate the expected sigma95 per each point for the three different set of cuts. • Assign to each point the set of cuts that maximizes the exclusion using the expected sigma95 (in this way, each point belongs only to a zone) • With this definition, the observed sigma95 is calculated. Knowing sigma95 and the masses of the points, we can perform a linear interpolation between them. IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  49. Linear interpolation: Example s95 = 0.163 s = 0.225 s95 = 0.124 s = 0.120 s86 s80 In this situation, s80 is excluded and s86 it is not. To find exactly where the exclusion line is, we define: Note that r*=1 marks the position of the excl. line Assuming one dimension only (take Msq) we interpolated linearly: When r*=1 we can find the mass of the point in the line, m*. Same procedure to find gluino mass. IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006

  50. Proposed as a solution to the hierarchy problem Extra dimensions are compactified or inaccessible to some part of SM Model of Arkani-Hamed, Dimopoulos, and Dvali (ADD) n extra dimensions (≥ 2) compactified at radius R SM constrained to a 4-d brane in higher dimensional space  Gravity exists in (4+n)-d “bulk” Effective Planck scale: Large Extra Dimensions (ADD scenario) M2Planck ~ Rn(MD)n+2 ,MD ~ 1 TeV • Gravitons appear to have mass, m2=m02+p2 • Tower of KK modes with splittings m ~ 1/R • Each mode couples with strength, MPl-1, but there are many: cross section summed over all modes IFAE Seminar, Barcelona 8/05/2006
