Meeting CERN Local SUSY Working Group, 30-May-2006

30-MAY-06, 13:15-15:00, 40-R-C10

During the recent rush, Jamie an others identified a number of issues, which are listed below (what's missing ?).

• On AOD/EventView/SUSYView:
  • ETmiss in ATLFAST seems to be wrong
  • give feedback to ATLFAST production team on corrupted files
  • jet reconstruction issues
  • PID issues (in particular photon ID)
  • identify the topology we are interested in, and understand combinatorics
  • speed

• On SFrame:
  • define the most suitable Cycle structure
  • finalise completely general event-weighting algorithm
  • define selection Cycle
  • fully integrate TMVA

• On MC production:
  • find j4, Z+jets, W+jets, tt+jets fully simulated AOD samples
  • understand low cross section of SU3 sample (seem to be ok)
  • once the tools are validated (in particular SUSYView and before), we need to develop a plan for efficient ntuple production and analysis; this includes automised quality control of the samples (full simulation and ATLFAST)
  • use the new CAT computing resources advertised by Markus in particular learn to use the Castor pool disks (this must be coordinated with the other CATPhys groups, to avoid duplication).

• On CSC notes:
  • physics: 1 lepton inclusive, and 2+ leptons (semi)exclusive analyses
  • detector: lepton-id, ETmiss reco (including fake ETmiss)

• Other issues:
  • we should also begin to think about how we can extract a signal
  • don't miss tomorrow's SUSY meeting
