The Effect of Tracker Material on The Level-1 Electromagnetic Trigger

The performance of the CMS Level-1 electromagnetic trigger simulation is investigated with incident electrons. The strong variation of tracker material as a function of eta causes a strong variation in the threshold required to achieve 95% efficiency. It is proposed to apply a scaling to the Level-1...

description The performance of the CMS Level-1 electromagnetic trigger simulation is investigated with incident electrons. The strong variation of tracker material as a function of eta causes a strong variation in the threshold required to achieve 95% efficiency. It is proposed to apply a scaling to the Level-1 electromagnetic trigger sums as a function of eta to produce a flat response. The effect of such a scaling on the Level-1 trigger rates is investigated. A set of rescaling constants is derived.
