Search for natural supersymmetry in events with top quark pairs and photons in pp collisions at \( \sqrt{s}=8 \) TeV

HJE p s = 8 TeV quark pairs and photons in pp collisions at Physics Processes Results are presented from a search for natural gauge-mediated supersymmetry (SUSY) in a scenario in which the top squark is the lightest squark, the next-to-lightest SUSY particle is a bino-like neutralino, and the lightest SUSY particle is the gravitino. The strong production of top squark pairs can produce events with pairs of top quarks and neutralinos, with each bino-like neutralino decaying to a photon and a gravitino. The search is performed using a sample of pp collision data accumulated by the CMS experiment at s = 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb 1. The nal state consists of a lepton (electron or muon), jets, and one or two photons. The imbalance in transverse momentum in the events is compared with the expected spectrum from standard model processes. No excess event yield is observed beyond the expected background, and the result is interpreted in the context of a general model of gauge-mediated SUSY breaking that leads to exclusion of top squark masses below 650{730 GeV. Hadron-Hadron scattering (experiments); Supersymmetry - The CMS collaboration 1 Introduction 2 3 4 5 6 Event selection and analysis strategy Results and interpretation Summary The CMS collaboration ing to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb 1 of pp collisions at p In this paper, we describe a search for light top squarks (et) in a data sample corresponds = 8 TeV. This search is motivated by models of gauge-mediated SUSY breaking (GMSB) [27{29] in which the neutralino ( e01) is the next-to-lightest sparticle (NLSP) and the gravitino (G~) is the lightest sparticle (LSP). The gravitino escapes undetected and contributes to missing transverse +pTmiss topology. This event topology is shown in the background estimates because of the exceedingly small cross section for such events in the SM. Two signal regions are de ned for both electron and muon channels, depending on the presence of one or two selected photons in the event. Control regions are similarly de ned, using photons that fail either the nominal isolation or shower-energy distribution requirements. The results of the analysis are evaluated by comparing the shapes of pTmiss distributions between the data and estimated backgrounds in the one- and two-photon signal regions. The results are interpreted for a range of top squark and neutralino masses in a general gauge-mediated (GGM) SUSY model framework [32{37]. 2 The CMS detector The central feature of the CMS detector is a superconducting solenoid with an internal diameter of 6 m, providing a magnetic eld of 3.8 T. A silicon pixel and strip tracker, a lead tungstate crystal electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL), and a brass and scintillator sampling hadron calorimeter (HCAL), each separated into central barrel and endcap sections, reside within the eld volume. Extensive forward calorimetry complements the coverage provided by the barrel and endcap detectors. The muon system, embedded in the steel return yoke outside of the solenoid, measures muons using drift tubes, cathode strip chambers, and resistive plate chambers. An energy resolution averaging approximately 1% is achieved for unconverted or lateconverting photons in the energy range of photons in the barrel section of ECAL. The remaining converted barrel photons have a resolution of about 1.3% up to a pseudorapidity of j j = 1, rising to about 2.5% at j j = 1:4 [38]. Only photons located in the barrel of the ECAL are considered in this analysis because of the superior energy resolution in the barrel compared to the endcap. { 2 { The rst level of the CMS trigger system, constructed using special hardware processors, provides information from the calorimeters and muon detectors to select the most interesting events in a xed time interval of less than 4 s. The high-level trigger processor farm further decreases the event rate from around 100 kHz to about 400 Hz before data storage. A more detailed description of the CMS detector, together with a de nition of the coordinate system and the kinematic variables, such as or the azimuthal angle (in radians), can be found in ref. [39]. 3 Object reconstruction All physics objects in the event (muons, electrons, photons, jets, and pmiss) are reconstructed using the particle- ow (PF) algorithm [40, 41]. Jets are formed by clustering PF candidates using the anti-kT algorithm [42], as implemented in FastJet toolkit [43], using a distance parameter of 0.5, and their momenta are corrected for e ects of multiple interactions in the same or neighboring bunch crossings (pileup). The pmiss of an event is de ned by the projection of the negative of the vector sum of the momenta of all reconstructed objects in the event onto the plane perpendicular to the proton beams. All PF candidates are used in the calculation of pTmiss. p ( Photons are reconstructed from energy clusters in the ECAL barrel (j j < 1:44), are required to be highly isolated from other objects, and to have transverse momentum pT > 20 GeV. The ratio of the energy deposited in the HCAL tower closest to the seed of the ECAL photon cluster to the energy in the photon cluster has to be less than ve percent. The photon shower is required to have a photon-like spatial distribution in its energy [38]. The isolation variable, de ned through the sum of the scalar values of pT of all PF candidates within a cone centered on the photon axis, in the plane of R = )2 + ( )2 = 0:3, is calculated without including the pT of the candidate photon. The isolation energy for charged hadrons is required to be <15 GeV, the neutral-hadron energy <3.5 GeV + 4% of the photon candidate pT, and the isolation energy from any other photons in the cone must be <13 GeV + 0.5% of the candidate photon pT. Pileup corrections depending on are applied to all calculated isolation variables. Electrons are reconstructed from clusters of deposited energy in the ECAL that are matched to a track in the silicon tracker [44]. Candidate electrons are required to have pT > 30 GeV, and to be within j j < 2:5, excluding the small transition region (1:44 < j j < 1:52) between the ECAL barrel and the endcaps. Electrons are required to be isolated, with the sum of the energy deposition within a cone of radius R = 0:3, excluding the electron, to correspond to < 10% of the momentum of the candidate electron. Muons are reconstructed from measurements in the muon system and compatible track segments in the silicon tracker [45]. Candidate muons are required to have pT > 30 GeV, be within j j < 2:1, and to have an isolation energy sum in a cone of radius R = 0:4, excluding the muon, of <12% of their pT. Looser lepton requirements are applied to identify extra leptons that are used to veto the dilepton tt nal states, as described in section 4. { 3 { HJEP03(218)67 The combined secondary vertex algorithm (CSV) [46, 47] is used to identify jets from b quarks. The CSV algorithm uses secondary vertices and track impact parameters to provide a discriminant separating b quark jets from charm, light quark, or gluon jets. The selection e ciency is about 70% for b quark jets and 20% for c quark jets. The rejection factor for lighter quark or gluon jets at this working point is about 2%. 4 Event selection and analysis strategy Events are required to pass either a single-electron or single-muon trigger, requiring one isolated electron or muon with minimum pT of 27 or 24 GeV, respectively. In addition, the single-muon trigger requires the muon candidate to be within j j < 2:1. The trigger e ciency is approximately 100% using o ine cuts on pT of 30 GeV. Only one lepton and at least three jets with pT > 30 GeV and j j < 2:4 are required, with at least one of the three jets tagged as originating from a b quark. All objects are required to be separated from each other by at least R = 0:5. Events containing additional leptons satisfying less restrictive criteria of pT > 10 GeV, j j < 2:5, and isolation-energy sums with <20% of their pT, are rejected. After this preselection, events are separated into independent samples based on the number of candidate photons. Candidate photons are required to be separated from all jets by R > 0:7. Two signal regions are de ned, with SR1 containing one photon candidate, and SR2 at least two photon candidates. Photons that fail either the shower-energy distribution or charged-hadron isolation criteria are referred to as fake photons. These objects are predominantly jets with large electromagnetic uctuations in their hadronization and are used to de ne two control regions: CR1, containing one fake and no properly reconstructed photons, and CR2, containing two or more fake and no properly reconstructed photons. The control regions are de ned not to overlap with signal regions, to have very small acceptance for signal, and to greatly enhance the population of photon-like jets that contribute most of the estimated background in signal regions. The control regions also provide events that can be used to study the performance of the pTmiss simulation for poorly reconstructed photon-like objects in the signal region. The e ect on the pmiss resolution from these poorly reconstructed photon-like objects is found to be negligible compared to the e ect of pT resolutions in the T jets from the tt decays. The background expected in the signal regions is largely dominated by tt+jets and tt+ events, where many selected photons may originate from misreconstructed jets. These two processes are simulated in Monte Carlo (MC) using the leading-order (LO) MadGraph 5.1.3 [48] matrix element generator matched to pythia 6.426 [49] for parton showering and fragmentation. Simulated tt+ events are generated in a 2 ! 7 con guration (pp!bbjj` ). Approximately 0.6% of the simulated tt+jets events that contain a generator-level photon fall into the phase space of the tt+ sample, and are removed to avoid double counting these events. Most other backgrounds are simulated with MadGraph and matched to pythia, including W+jets or Z+jets, tt+W or tt+Z, W+ or Z+ , and diboson (ZZ, WZ, and WW) processes.

The Z2* tune [52, 53] is used for the underlying event. All simulated backgrounds are processed using the full simulation of the response of the CMS detector using the Geant4 [54] package, and reconstructed under the same conditions as the data. These backgrounds are then normalized to the integrated luminosity of the data using their respective cross sections calculated at least at NLO. The CTEQ6M parton distribution functions (PDF) are used in the signal and background simulations [55]. A summary of the software used in the MC simulations of backgrounds is given in table 1. In the muon+jets channel, the background from Z+jets and Z+ events is very small T because of the low probablility for a muon to be misidenti ed as a photon. In the electron+jets channel, however, these processes contribute more to the background, especially at low pmiss, because the probability for an electron to be misidenti ed as a photon is much greater. This electron misidenti cation rate can be determined from the size of the peak at the Z boson mass in the invariant mass distribution of electron-photon pairs in the electron+jets channel of SR1. This rate depends on an estimate of the number of selected Z bosons in the electron+jets channel, the accuracy of which can be improved through the implementation of a scale factor (SF ) extracted to normalize the Z+jets and Z+ MC events in both the electron and muon channels. The SF is measured imposing a dilepton selection similar to the one used in the SR1 selection, but altered to require two same- avor leptons rather than just a single lepton. Events with additional leptons are vetoed, and no photons are required. A t to the invariant mass of the dilepton system in data, using the Z+jets and Z+ MC events as the signal template and all other MC events as background templates, provides a normalization scale factor for both the Z+jets and Z+ MC events, labeled SFZ( ), in the electron and the muon channels. Once this rst SF is applied to correct the MC estimate of the number of Z bosons, the Z resonance in the SR1 electron+jets channel is used to obtain a second scale factor SFe! which corrects the misidenti cation of electrons as photons. A t to the invariant mass of the electron-photon system in SR1 data, with pmiss < 50 GeV, to limit the presence of signal, is performed using the Z+jets and Z+ MC events to determine their contributions. T Generator-level matching of reconstructed photons to generated electrons is applied to { 5 { e 1.38 channel, only the SFZ( ) scale factor is relevant. The rst uncertainties are statistical, obtained from uncertainties in the resultant ts. The second uncertainties correspond to di erences in the resulting scale factors, added in quadrature, that were obtained by allowing each systematic uncertainty to uctuate up and down by one standard deviation and re tting. increase the purity of the misidenti ed e mass template. To increase the statistics available for each template, the b tagging requirement is removed from the MC events and from the data sample, as the misidenti cation does not depend on the presence of a b jet. From the result of this t, a normalization SFe! is measured and applied to both the Z+jets and Z+ MC events in the electron-signal regions. A corresponding SF ! scale factor is not applied in the muon-signal regions, as the misidenti cation of muons as photons is negligible. The results of the ts for each of these scale factors are listed in table 2. Comparisons of the data and MC distributions are shown in gure 2 after the applying the scale factors of table 2. The nal ingredient needed to estimate the background is the relative compositions of photons and photon-like jets in the dominant tt+jets and tt+ backgrounds. As stated in the introdcution, no explicit tt+ sample is used in the background estimate because of the exceedingly small cross section for such events. The sources of two photon events in SR2 are largely the result of jets or electrons misidenti ed as photons as described above, or of initial or nal-state radiation as predicted by pythia. While the precise photon T purity in each signal region is important for absolute measurements, no di erence in the overall shape of simulated pmiss is found when altering the purity of selected photons. The maximum bin-by-bin di erence between the simulated pmiss of tt+jets and tt+ events is found to be 5%. When their relative normalizations are adjusted to the observed photon T T purity in data through a t to the photon isolation variable, the result is well contained within the statistical uncertainties in the pmiss distribution. The pmiss distribution in both signal regions is found to be insensitive to the source of selected photons in tt+jets and tt+ backgrounds, and, as such, no dedicated tt+ sample is required. To eliminate any dependence on the overall production rate of tt+ events, the normalizations of tt+jets and T tt+ backgrounds are allowed to oat freely in the calculations of upper limits, so that the interpretation of the results is based completely on the observed shapes of the distributions. T The control regions allow us to validate the prediction of the pTmiss background, as they contain less than 1% contamination from signal. Inverting the requirements on the photon shower selection or on charged-hadron isolation, the CR1 and CR2 regions can contain the same tt systems as the signal regions, but with greatly enhanced contributions from misidenti ed jets compared to the photon content in each sample. The observed data and predicted background pmiss are shown in gure 3 for each control region. { 6 { 19.7 fb-1 (8 TeV) ee+bjj Data Z(γ) + jets Other backgrounds 104 CMS V e G 0 1 / .d1.5 D 20 V e G 0 1 / .d1.5 D 20 .d1.5 160 m 180 eγ [GeV] and (middle pane) for the muon channels.

The KolmogorovSmirnov test [56] result of 0.66 between data and simulation for CR2 is attributable to the very small number of events in data and, therefore, CR2 is not used to determine an uncertainty for the signal region SR2. The CR1 results are therefore used for both SR1 and SR2. An additional systematic uncertainty in SR1 is obtained using the bin-bybin fractional di erences (1 CR1=SR1) of CR1 and SR1 pmiss shapes. A nal systematic T this accounts for a 10{20% systematic uncertainty from di erences between the data and the CR1 MC pmiss shapes, a 1{8% systematic uncertainty in SR1 due to the di erence between CR1 and SR1 pmiss shapes, and a 10{50% systematic uncertainty (the 50% value applies only in the highest bin of pmiss) in SR2, based on the di erence SR1 and SR2 5 Results and interpretation For any given background or signal process, contributions from systematic uncertainties affecting pTmiss are treated simultaneously and are assumed to be completely uncorrelated. All backgrounds are simulated using MC generated events and assigned systematic uncertainties based on integrated luminosity uncertainties, PDF and scale uncertainties, corrections for the number of pileup events, and jet energy scale and resolution (JES and JER). Estimated uncertainties on trigger e ciency and object selections are derived from the systematic uncertainties in MC scale factors. These include trigger e ciencies, b tagging [46, 47] as well as electron [44], muon [45], and photon identi cation [38]. The systematic uncertainties are summarized in table 3. The observed data are compared to the SM background estimates as a function of pTmiss in each signal region, as shown in gure 4. No signi cant deviation is observed between data and the background prediction. The nal results are summarized in table 4. To demonstated what a GGM signal would look like compared to the data, an example of a GGM spectrum is generated with FastSim [57] using pythia 6 and SuSpect 2.41 [58], using the decay tables from sdecay 1.2 [59] and NLO cross sections calculated with prospino 2.1 [60]. We scan over the parameters M1 (U(1)Y ), gaugino (bino) mass and MtR in the SLHA les [61]. The other input parameters of GGM such as M2 (SU(2)L), gaugino (wino) mass) and MdR, etc. are decoupled. As a result sdecay + SuSpect produce neutralino and top squark masses that are similar to the settings of M1 and MtR, and the rest of the particles masses are in the TeV range. The GGM signal is shown superimposed on the data and background MC in gure 4. e The mass of the top squark (mt) is chosen to range from 360 to 910 GeV. The neutralino is assumed for simplicity to be 100% bino-like, decaying 100% to a photon plus a gravitino. The neutralino mass (me01 ) is chosen to range from 150 to 725 GeV and the gravitino mass is 1 GeV. Signal points are evaluated in 25 GeV steps in both me01 and m e and in 50 GeV steps for higher masses.

The rst group of uncertainties is e t = T and background pmiss shapes. Systematic uncertainties a ecting only the normalization of signal or background processes are modeled through log-normal distributions, taken as the probability density functions in their associated nuisance parameters. Fluctuations in the shape of pTmiss distributions determine both upward and downward systematic uncertainties. A single 100% nuisance parameter is introduced with a log-uniform probability density function for its normalization to allow the tt and tt+ normalizations to oat freely in the upper-limit calculation. Statistical uncertainties resulting from the limited number of MC events are also included as nuisance parameters, as prescribed in ref. [65].

No signi cant deviation is found in the distribution of the missing transverse momentum between data and expected SM backgrounds that would indicate the presence of new physics. Upper limits on signal cross sections are calculated for a range of top squark and bino masses. Top squark masses between 650 to 730 GeV are excluded at the 95% CL corresponding to the neutralino mass range of 500 to 150 GeV, respectively. These top squark mass points are obtained using the 1 theoretical excursion from the observed exclusion mean. These results set the most stringent exclusions on top squark masses in gauge-mediated supersymmetric model considered here.
