Physics Analysis


CMS Simulated Production Steps
Four basic steps are involved in CMS production
  • Generation                 (CMKIN)
  • Simulation                  (OSCAR)
  • Reconstruction          (ORCA)
  • Analysis                     (ROOT)
Monte Carlo Generators

 

  •   Why Generators?
    • Generators acts like accelerators (LHC,LEP,TEVATRON)
    • Discovery of Higgs and Super-symmetry
    • Allow theoretical and experimental studies of complex multi-particle physics
    • Vehicle of ideology to disseminate ideas from theorists to experimentalists
    • Predict the event rates and topology (Kinematics of particles resulted from collisions)
    • Simulate possible backgrounds
    • Study detector requirements
    • Study detector imperfections
    • Evaluation of acceptance corrections
    • Estimation of cross-sections ,branching ratios and decay Widths
    • PDF uncertainties
    • Hard processes and resonance decays
    • ISR and FSR
    • LO and NLO calculations
  • Event Generation Structure
    • Initialization step
      • Select process to study
      • Modify physics parameters
      • Set kinematic constraints
      • Modify generator settings
      • Initialize generator
      • Book histograms
    • Generation loop
      • Generate one event at a time
      • Analyze it
      • Add results to histograms
      • Print a few events
    •   Finishing step
      • Print cross-sections/BR
      • Print/save histograms
Analysis Overview

Data Production Chain

CRAB

CRAB is a Python program intended to simplify the process of creation and submission of CMS analysis jobs into Grid environment.

  • CRAB generates scripts and additional data files for each job
  • The produced scripts are submitted directly to the Grid
  • CRAB is aimed to give access to all data produced on any GRID station in the world without any knowledge of LCG at all
  • NCP is a Certificate Authority , issuing digital certificates to grid users/hosts
