Photon Reconstruction in CMS

If the mass of the Higgs boson is less than 150 GeV/c^2, the H into two photons channel will provide a clear signature at the LHC. An overview of the general design of photon reconstruction in the CMS experiment is given. The handling of converted photons and rejection of neutral pions pose an addit...

description If the mass of the Higgs boson is less than 150 GeV/c^2, the H into two photons channel will provide a clear signature at the LHC. An overview of the general design of photon reconstruction in the CMS experiment is given. The handling of converted photons and rejection of neutral pions pose an additional challenge to triggering and measuring. Topics related to photon reconstruction are presented, such as an algorithm for track building of the electron and the positron coming from the photon conversion.
