Sensitivity of the Muon Isolation Cut Efficiency to the Underlying Event Uncertainties
In the context of the rm H rightarrow ZZ rightarrow 4mu analysis, uncertainties in predicting the muon isolation cut efficiency are studied by varying the PYTHIA parameters responsible for simulation of the underlying event. The processes considered are rm H rightarrow ZZ rightarrow 4mu, rm ZZ right...

description | In the context of the rm H rightarrow ZZ rightarrow 4mu analysis, uncertainties in predicting the muon isolation cut efficiency are studied by varying the PYTHIA parameters responsible for simulation of the underlying event. The processes considered are rm H rightarrow ZZ rightarrow 4mu, rm ZZ rightarrow 4mu, and rm tbar {t} rightarrow 4mu + X. We also show that an inclusive Z data sample will allow for direct experimental measurement of the 4-muon isolation cut efficiencies associated with rm H rightarrow ZZ rightarrow 4mu and rm ZZ rightarrow 4mu events with a systematic uncertainty of less than 2%. |
