Photons and Electron studies at CMS

Reconstructing electrons and photons with high efficiency and good momentum resolution is crucial for many physics channels at the CMS experiment. This goal is challenging in view of the high material budget in front of the electromagnetic calorimeter and the presence of a strong magnetic field. The...

description Reconstructing electrons and photons with high efficiency and good momentum resolution is crucial for many physics channels at the CMS experiment. This goal is challenging in view of the high material budget in front of the electromagnetic calorimeter and the presence of a strong magnetic field. The reconstruction algorithms are described here. The use of data from the first proton-proton collisions recorded by CMS at the center of mass energy of 900 GeV to commission the reconstruction of electrons and photons is discussed.
