Title: B-jet production cross section at CDF


1
B-jet production cross section at CDF
  • Monica DOnofrio
  • University of Geneva
  • WineCheese Seminar, September 9th 2005

2
In the last 15 years
  • Study of events with b-quarks has led to
    important Tevatron results
  • Discovery and study of the top quark
  • B physics in general (spectroscopy, lifetimes
    measurement, sin 2b etc..)
  • Measurement of quarkonium states and appreciation
    of color-octet-mediated production mechanisms
  • These results mostly obtained
  • when a factor 3 discrepancy
  • was reported between theory
  • predictions and experimental
  • data by both CDF and DØ
  • in b-hadron cross sections

3
  •  To claim that we need to understand b
    production in order to make new discoveries is
    therefore a bit exaggerated
  • .. Nevertheless, lack of confidence in the
    ability to describe properties of events
    containing b quarks, in addition to raising
    doubts over the general applicability of pQCD in
    hadronic collisions, does limit our potential for
    the discovery of possible subtle and unexpected
    new phenomena  (M.Mangano, HCP2004)

Therefore, the study of b production properties
should be one of the main priorities for
RunII  also considering high statistics..

Testing FONLL B hadron production
  • J/? decays of B-Hadrons used to
  • measure the b production cross section
  • Find J/y inclusive cross section
  • Extract fraction of J/y from decay of
  • long-lived b-hadrons
  • Find b-hadrons cross section for
  • pT(B) down to 0 considering y(J/y)lt0.6

? J/y from B ? J/y X will be displaced

Summary on theory advances
  • Reduction of discrepancy is due
  • to four basic points
  • FONLL calculation brings 20 increase
  • in intermediate pT region
  • fragmentation step from perturbative
  • b quark to B hadron at small pT was
  • too strong 20 increase in this pT
  • region
  • Peterson fragmentation function was
  • too soft use new LEP data ?0.002
  • additional 20 increase
  • PDF evolution (gt 20 increase)

little changes combined together
? big effect in Data/Theory comparison
13
Why b-jets?
  • b-jets include most of quark fragmentation
    remnants
  • ? small dependence on
    fragmentation
  • wide PT spectrum

B-jet cross section
  • Nitagged is the number of tagged jets
  • eib-tag is the b-tagging efficiency
  • fib is the fraction of b-jets among tagged jets
  • Ciunfold are correction factors from Monte
    Carlo for acceptance
  • and smearing effects

18
Jet reconstruction
Final state partons are revealed through
collimated flows of hadrons called jets
Jet
Beam remnants
Hard scattering
  • Two main type of jet algorithms (in CDF)
  • Cone Algorithm
  • ? JETCLU and MIDPOINT
  • - KT algorithm

Multiple partons interaction
  • Seed towers
  • Only iterate over towers above certain threshold
    (3 GeV at CDF)
  • MidPoint adds extra seed in centre of each pair
    of seeds ? Infrared safe
  • Ratcheting (JetClu only)
  • All towers initially inside a cone must stay in a
    cone
  • Merging/Splitting

fmerge0.75
19
Event selection
  • MIDPOINT jets, Rcone 0.7, Yjetlt0.7
  • PT range 30-360 GeV/c
  • ? 38-400 GeV/c for corrected PT jets
  • use 5 samples with different ETjet threshold
  • Total luminosity used 300 pb-1

Trigger efficiency
  • Inclusive calorimetric triggers
  • Level 1 selection based on ET of cal towers
    (EMHAD)
  • Level 2 accept tower clusters with ET above a
    fixed threshold
  • Level 3 jets reconstructed (JETCLU, Rcone0.7,
    Zv0)
  • Z primary vertexlt50 cm
  • to assure good energy measurement, vertexing
    capability
  • Cut on missing ET Significance ( ET/v?ET)
  • implemented to reject to cosmic rays

Event Selection

Jet corrections detector effects
For each calorimeter jet in Ylt0.7 look for the
corresponding hadronic (particle) jet to remove
dependence from detector effects
  • need inclusive correction that takes into
    account the
  • bias due to the tagger ? correction on tagged
    jets

Time

  • b-quark-originated jets different from ordinary
    jets
  • account for smearing effects for detector
    resolution
  • ? apply unfolding correction bin by bin for
    b-jet
  • from Monte Carlo hadronic b-jet

21
Jet Corrections Pile up
UEM (PT) 0.9320.002 GeV
Main idea measure PT in a random cone in
Minimum Bias sample (central region) as a
function of primary vertices to define effect
due to multiple interactions
Average number of primary vertices as a
function of instantaneous luminosity
Jet samples
6 different slices of Instantaneous luminosity
Small dependence on Lum.
Effects in jet PT about -1 GeV/c per each
additional primary vertex
22
B tagging algorithm
In general b-tagging procedures take advantage
of the long life-time of B hadrons ? ct 450 mm
  • Looks for tracks associated with a jet
  • the track selection is based on on
  • measurement of impact parameter (d0)
  • with respect to primary vertex
  • Need two displaced tracks to reconstruct
  • a secondary vertex (made in 2 steps)
  • After secondary vertex reconstruction
  • require to be well separated from primary vertex
  • in r-f space by looking at Lxy and its error
  • Jets passing those selections tagged

23
B tagging efficiency (1)
  • Use Monte Carlo simulation to cover the wide PT
    spectrum 38-400 GeV/c
  • Measure efficiency scale factor to take into
    account simulation imperfections
  • (tracking efficiencyresolution, B hadron decay
    models)
  • For this purpose, use independent dataset
  • Sample enhanced in b-jet content
  • dijet events ? one e/m jet away jet tagged
  • look e.g. at eb-jet for the muon jet
  • Measure b-tagging efficiency
  • in Data and MC

b-jet content extract using PTrel muon-jet

B tagging efficiency (2)
eData b-jet/eMC b-jet ? Scale Factor (SF)

  • Systematic error due to hadronic VS semileptonic
    b-decay below 3
  • Geometrical acceptance and energy dependence of
    the tagger ? from simulation
  • Tagging rates parametrized as function of
    relevant variables to define systematic error on
    PT dependence ? 5

25
b-fraction tagged jets
  • Extract fraction of b-tagged jets from data using
    shape of mass of secondary vertex as
    discriminating quantity
  • bin-by-bin as a function of jet pT
  • 2 component fitb and non-b templates

34
Data/NLO ratio
  • Ratio up to 1.5 above 100 GeV/c jets
  • Poor agreement but still within
  • systematics without considering
  • scale uncertainty

35
Comparison with Run I D? results
  • Use mm0 for central theory value
  • data close to upper band of systematic (mm0/2 ?
    PDF uncertainty)
  • direct comparison of data not possible
  • (different center of mass energy ?s, different
    jet algorithm, different
  • rapidity range )

For jets below 100 GeV/c, D0 data in RunI showed
a similar pattern
36
Issues on high PT b-jets
  • Unknown impact of higher order contributions
  • reduced scale dependence
  • event has more partons in the final state, thus
    closer
  • to the real world
  • better description of the transverse momentum of
  • final state due to double radiation of
    initial states
  • Logarithmic log(pT/m) enhancement of higher order
    contribution due to gluon splitting is not
    included in NLO calculations (neither in MC_at_NLO)
  • ? at low PT effects are small (range of B-hadron
    cross section)
  • ? at high PT are very important and need to be
    considered
  • Experimentally
  • study of bb-jets correlation
  • ? to disentangle different production mechanisms
  • Zb jets and gb jets
  • ? could help to constrain the b density in the
    proton

Zb jet production
In QCD, Zb can help constrain b density in the
proton
Important background for new physics such as
higgs search

Probe the heavy flavor content of proton
With HERA Fbb2 data CTEQ below MRST by down to
?1/2 and below data ? Zb jets can help
understand this picture

  • previous analyses
  • extract fraction of b-tagged jets

Summary and Conclusion
  • In the last year many advances in theory
    calculation for b production at intermediate and
    low PT
  • Good agreement with B-Hadron cross section
  • Big effort in study of b-jets production in CDF
    RunII
  • Inclusive b-jet cross section measurement done
    within a wide range in transverse momentum using
    300 pb-1 data
  • Similar behaviour to D? RunI cross section w.r.t.
    theoretical expectations for jet PT below 100
    GeV/c
  • Agreement with theory within uncertainties NLO
    b-jet cross section calculation still shows big
    scale dependences
  • Study of more exclusive b-jet cross section could
    help
  • bb correlations to disentangle production
    processes
  • Zb to understand b content in the initial
    radiation
