PH4100 Major Project

Information regarding 4th year projects based on ATLFAST ntuples. See my Log Book 11, page 10, for useful notes fo rthe project kick-off meetings.

ATLFAST 11.0.5 ntuples

Information on the simulated samples can be found in my Log Book 11, page 23. All of the samples below include simulation of the underlying event. PYTHIA 6.323 was used to generate the events. The cross-sections quoted below are those provided by PYTHIA (except where explicitly stated otherwise). (See page 36 of Log Book 11 for more details.) The fast simulation ntuples include Run No and Event No information.

Background samples

The following background samples can be found in linappserv1:/scratch0/ptd/ATLAS/EVTutorial/ReGenWithUE/

1 ls -al *ntp* | grep fastsim | grep _tt_ / total 80k events / PYTHIA sigma = 494.5 pb (but use 800 pb ? instead)

Signal samples

The following signal sample (generted in 2007) can be found in linappserv1:/scratch0/ptd/ATLAS/EVTutorial/ReGenWithUE/

fastsim_GFhWW_m120_r2050_ntp.root / total 20k events / PYTHIA sigma = 2.53 pb

The following signal samples, generated in Oct 2008, are available in linappserv1:/scratch2/ptd/ATLAS/MCsamples/2008/ATLFAST
