  2. 2008 should look something like… Hardware commissioning to 7 TeV Machine Checkout 1 month Commissioning with beam 2 months Pilot Physics 1 month Reach 1031 Provisional Running at 75 ns L~ 1032 cm-2s-1 ~ 3 months of running +some optimism ~ 1 fb-1 IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  3. LHC: physics roadmap Understand/calibrate detector and trigger in situ using “candles” samples e.g. - Z  ee,  tracker, ECAL, muon chamber calibration and alignment, etc. - tt  bl bjj jet scale from Wjj, b-tag performance, etc. Understand basic SM physics at s = 14 TeV • measure cross-sections for e.g. minimum bias, W, Z, tt, QCD jets (to ~20 %), • start to tune Monte Carlo • measure top mass  give feedback on detector performance Note : statistical error negligible with O(10 pb-1) Prepare the road to discovery: • measure backgrounds to New Physics : e.g. tt and W/Z+ jets • look at specific “control samples” for the individual channels: e.g. ttjj with j  b “calibrates” ttbb irreducible background to ttH  ttbb Look for New Physics potentially accessible in first year(s) e.g. Z’, SUSY, Higgs ? IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  4. How many events at the beginning ? Assumed selection efficiency: W l, Z ll : 20% tt  l+X :1.5% (no b-tag, inside mass bin) similar statistics to CDF, D0 today + lots of minimum-bias and jets (107 events in 2 weeks of data taking if 20% of trigger bandwidth allocated) 10 pb-1 1 month at 1030 and < 2 weeks at 1031,=50% 1 fb-1 100 pb-1 few days at 1032 , =50% IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  5. Which detector performance on day one ? Based on detector construction quality, test-beam results, cosmics, simulation Expected performance day 1Physics samples to improve ECAL uniformity ~ 1% Minimum-bias, Z ee e/ scale ~ 2 % Z  ee HCAL uniformity ~ 3 % Single pions, QCD jets Jet scale < 10% Z ( ll) +1j, W  jj in tt events Tracking alignment 20(100)-200 m in R? Generic tracks, isolated m , Z mm Ultimate statistical precision achievable after few weeks of operation. Then face systematics…. E.g. : tracker alignment : 100 mm (1 month)  20mm (4 months)  5 mm (1 year) ? IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  6. What we will know @ LHC start? W, Z cross-sections: to 3-4% (NNLO calculation  dominated by PDF) tt cross-section to ~7% (NLO+PDF) Lot of progress with NLO matrix element MC interfaced to parton shower MC (MC@ NLO, AlpGen,.. ) LHC <Nch> at  =0 for generic pp collisions (minimum bias) PYTHIA6.214 - tuned PHOJET1.12 Transverse < Nchg > x 3 LHC ? x1.5 — AlpGen Candidate to very early measurement:  tuning of MC models  understand basics of pp collisions, occupancy, pile-up, … IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  7. Minimum Bias • Non-single diffractive evts, s≈ 60-70 mb • Soft interactions • Low PT, low Multiplicity. • Soft tracks: pTpeak~250MeV • Approx flat distribution in h to |h|~3 and in f • Nch~30; |h|<2.5 • Rate: R~700kHz @ L=1031cm-2s-1, For dN/dh require ~10k • What we would observe with a fully inclusive detector/trigger. • Several MB interactions can take place in a single beam crossing. • MB seen if “interesting” triggered interaction also produced. • Pile-up effect. • Tracking detectors help to separate the different primary vertices. • Possible overlap of clusters in calorimeters. Need energy flow. IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  8. Initial Tracking & Alignment • Very first alignment will be based on: • Mechanical precision • Detailed survey data • Cosmic data • Minimum bias events and inclusive bb • Studies indicate good efficiencies after initial alignment • ~ 80% down to PT = 500 MeV • Precision will need Zs and resonances to fix energy scales, constrain twists, etc. pT (MeV) • Even lower PT accessible with reduced tracking ? • PT = 400 MeV - tracks reach end of TRT • PT = 150 MeV - tracks reach last SCT layer • PT = 50 MeV - tracks reach all Pixel layers 150MeV IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  9. High PT scatter Beam remnants ISR Underlying Event • All the activity from a single particle-particle interaction on top of the “interesting” process. • Initial State Radiation (ISR). • Final State Radiation (FSR). • Spectators. • … Multiple Interactions ? (These models are certainly very successful!). • The UE is correlated to its “interesting” process. • Share the same primary vertex. • Events with high PT jets or heavy particles have more underlying activity Pedestal effect. • UE ≠ MB but some aspects & concepts are similar. • Phenomenological study of Multiplicity & PT of charged tracks.

  10. UE: measurement plan at the LHC From charged jet usingMB and jet triggers) Topological structure of p-p collision from charged tracks The leading Ch_jet1 defines a direction in the f plane The transverse region is particularly sensitive to the UE Main observables: + dN/dhdf, charged density + d(PTsum)/dhdf, energy density From D-Y muon pair production (using muon triggers) observables are the same but defined in all the fplane (after removing the m pairs everything else is UE) IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  11. MC MB JET60 JET120 PT>0.9, |h|<1 Main observables: - dN/dhdf, charged density - d(PTsum)/dhdf, energy density UE with charged jets dNch/dhdf VS PT_ch_jet1 Njets > 1, |ηjet| < 2.5, ETjet >10 GeV, PT_ch_jet1 Good RECO/MC agreement in shape Differences compatible with the expected corrections from charged jet PT calibration, charged tracks innefficiencies and fake rate RECO/MC Differences absorb in the ratio, no need to apply corrections! Emphasis on the reconstruction of soft tracks… IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  12. UE with Drell-Yan dPTsum/dhdf dN/dhdf M(m,m) M(m,m) Ratio PT>0.9GeV/PT>0.5GeV (PT tracks threshold) Ratio observables are sensitive to differences between models !!! IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  13. Production of W and Z boson • Large W (Z) cross section: 10 nb (1 nb) and clean leptonic signatures • Compare to theo. prediction or assume prediction and use to measure luminosity • Example : uncertainties with 1 fb-1 in the muon channel in detector fiducial volume IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  14. PDFs:LHC Kinematic regime Kinematic regime for LHC much broader than currently explored Test of QCD: • Test DGLAP evolution at small x: • Is NLO DGLAP evolution sufficient at so small x ? • Are higher orders important? • Improve information of high x gluon distribution At TeV scale New Physics s’s predictions are dominated by high-x gluon uncertainty (not sufficiently well constrained by PDF fits) At the EW scale theoretical predictions for LHC are dominated by low-x gluon uncertainty (i.e. W and Z masses) => see later slides How can we constrain PDF’s at LHC? IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  15. CTEQ61 CTEQ61 MRST02 MRST02 ZEUS-S ZEUS-S Generator Level Error boxes are the Full PDF Uncertainties ATLAS Detector Level with sel. cuts GOAL: syst. exp. error ~4% Wen rapidity distributions • W production over |y|<2.5 at LHC involves 10-4 < x1,2 < 0.1  region dominated by g  qq HERWIG MC Simulations with NLO Corrections e-rapidity e+ rapidity At y=0 the total PDF uncertainty is ~ ±5.2% from ZEUS-S ~ ±3.6% from MRST01E ~ ±8.7% from CTEQ6.1M ZEUS-S to MRST01E central value difference ~5% ZEUS-S to CTEQ6.1 central value difference ~3.5% IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

Central value of ZEUS-PDF prediction shifts and uncertainty is reduced: ZEUS-PDFBEFORE including W data ZEUS-PDFAFTER including W data e+CTEQ6.1 pseudo-data e+CTEQ6.1 pseudo-data |h| |h| In few day stat. of LHC at low Luminosity Systematics (e.g. e acceptance vs ) can be controlled to few % with Z  ee (~ 30000 events for 100 pb-1) IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  17. Top physics in the early phase The LHC will be a top-factory !  NLO~830 pb : 2 tt events per second !  more than 10 million tt /year • Measure total ttbar cross section: • test of pQCD calculations (predicted at ~ 10%) • sensitive to top mass • Measure differential cross sections • sensitive to new physics • Make initial direct measurement of top mass • Measure single top production (t-channel) IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  18. Top physics during commissioning • Several months to achieve pixel alignment • Study separation of top from background without b-tagging • Use high multiplicity in final states • High Pt cuts to clean sample • Use kinematical features • Even with a 5% efficiency 10evts/hour at 1033 Hadronic top: Three jets with highest PT W boson: Two jets in hadronic top with highest PT in reconstructed jjj C.M. frame W CANDIDATE TOP CANDIDATE IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  19. m(Wjj) m (topjjj) m (topjjj) L=300 pb-1 S S/B = 1.77 B S/B = 0.45 Top physics during commissioning |mjj-mW| < 10 GeV S : MC @ NLO B : AlpGen x 2 to account for W+3,5 partons (pessimistic) Expect ~ 100 events inside mass peak with only 300 pb-1 • top signal observable in early days with no b-tagging and simple analysis • W+jets background can be understood with MC+data (Z+jets) IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  20. W+jets x 2 W+jets x 4 W+jets x 8 Nominal W+jets Siginficance (s) Luminosity (pb-1) Top signal significance vs luminosity Siginficance (s) Fitted #signal events Luminosity (pb-1) Luminosity (pb-1) IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  21. Miscalibrated detector or escaping ‘new’ particle Events Perfect detector What can you do with early tops?  Calibrate light jet energy scale - impose PDG value of the W mass (precision < 1%)  Estimate/calibration b-tagging e - From data (precision ~ 5%) - Study b-tag (performance) in complex events  Study lepton trigger  Calibrate missing transverse energy - use W mass constraint in the event - range 50 GeV < p T < 200 GeV  Estimate (accuracy ~20%) of mt and tt. Use W boson mass to enhance purity Missing ET (GeV) IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  22. Systematic effects for top physics • Almost all SM measurements at LHC dominated by systematic errors. • Can be divided into instrumental and from theory/modeling • Dominant instrumental uncertainties for top physics: Luminosity:  Reasonable goal is 3-5%  measure number of interactions/bunch crossing (HF) and (pp) (TOTEM) Reconstruction related:  Jet energy scale need calibrated calorimetry (beam tests, MB, single particles, Z, W…) need jet energy calibration to a few % (with Z()+jet) need excellent energy flow (association tracker+calo+muon system)  b-tagging efficiency+fake rate use tt for calibration: to 4-5% with 10/fb  Lepton identification and energy scale use Z, other mesons. Less crucial than for the W mass measurement Theory related systematics are as important as instrumental ones ! IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  23. UE, MPI MEs PS fragmentation Learning from data We model most of our description of reality at the LHC:  Need to quote a confidence on the description of our simulations  Need to avoid non realistic scenarios (ex: FSR OFF)  Need to avoid to double count errors • pdfs constrain using LHC data • hard scattered partons process description (signal AND backgrounds) scale dependency • final state radiation vary QCD and Q2max consistently ? • hadronization b+light jets: is LEP good enough? • initial state radiation vary QCD and Q2max consistently ? • minimum bias and underlying event energy dependent. Do our own tuning ! PDFs Jets UE PDF tuning  UE tuning  radiation tuning  fragmentation tuning LHC must learn the best way to use its own data to constrain models IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  24. X-section of tt semileptonics at 1 fb-1 Single lepton selection  Lepton with cuts on ET and   Missing ET>40 GeV  Hadronic activity (4 jets)  b-tagging of 2 jets IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  25. Top mass measurement at fb-1 ttbar semileptonics • Should be able to measure top mass at ~ 1% in both dileptonic and semileptonic channel • Need control of the jet energy scale ! • Larger error ~2-3% in the hadronic channel IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS

  26. Conclusions • LHC startup will require a long period of development and understanding • With first data measure • detector performance in situ  physics • particle multiplicity in minimum bias • top signal with ~ 30 pb-1 • s(tt) to 20% and Mtop to 7-10 GeV with 100 pb-1 ? • PDF (low-x gluons !) with W/Z (O(100) pb-1 ?) • first tuning of MC (MB, UE, tt, W/Z+jets, QCD jets,…) • Goal is to arrive @ high statistics (few fb-1) data-taking ready to go for early discovery physics • BUT….as soon as interactions @ 14 TeV happen interesting and new physics will appear in the data. Surprises? ….see discussion of Ernesto! IV Workshop Italiano ATLAS-CMS
