Search for diffractive Z→μμ
DØ Run II preliminarySummer 2003
• Inclusive Z→μμ sample well understood:
• 2 muons, pT > 15GeV, opposite charge• at least one muon isolated in tracker and calorimeter• cosmic rejection
• RunI publication ”Observation of diffractively produced W and Z bosons in pp Collisions at sqrt(s)=1.8 TeV”, Phys. Lett. B 574, 169 (2003) Nine single diffractive Z→e+e- events. No result in muon channel.
• RunII: first search for forward rapidity gaps in Z→μ+μ- events (Tamsin Edwards)
Mμμ (GeV)

Areas are normalised to 1
empty events
physics samples
• Compare 'empty event' sample with physics samples:
• Empty event sample: random trigger. Veto LM signals and primary vertex, i.e. mostly empty bunch crossings• Physics samples: minimum bias (coincidence in LM), jet and Z→μμ events
Log(energy sum) on North side:
10 GeV • Esum cut of 10GeV was chosen for current study
• Final value will be optimised using full data sample
• Use energy sum to distinguish proton break-up from empty calorimeter:
Gap Definition: Calorimeter

Z Mass Comparison
• Invariant mass for gap events looks like standardZ sample• Will be able to compare Z boson kinematics (pT, pz, rapidity)
• Add Esum<10 GeV requirement to LM gap samples:

Z→μμ + gaps: Summary
• Preliminary definition of rapidity gap at DØ Run II
• Study of Z→μ+μ- events with a rapidity gap signature (little or no energy detected in the forward direction)
• Current status: • Evidence of Z events with a rapidity gap signature• Quantitative studies of gap definition, backgrounds, efficiency in progress• No interpretation in terms of diffractive physics possible yet
• Plans:
• Understand run dependent effects• Measurement of the fraction of diffractively produced Z events; properties of gap candidate events• Diffractive W→μν, W/Z→electrons, jets and other channels • Use tracks from Forward Proton Detector

• Measure dN/dt for elastic scattering using early stand-alone FPD data:
• Quadrupole acceptance: • t > 0.8 GeV2 (requires sufficient scattering angle to leave beam envelope)• all ξ (no longitudinal momentum loss necessary)
• proton side: • quadrupole ‘down’ spectrometer• full detector read-out
• antiproton side: • quadrupole ‘up’ spectrometer• trigger only
• Elastic scattering: ξ = 0 (no momentum lost by beam particle)
veto on LM and VETO counters, early time hits (halo tracks)

Preliminary Elastic Results• The dσ/dt data collected by different experiments at different energies
• A factor of 10-2 must be applied to each curve
• New DØ dN/dt distribution has been normalized by E710 data
• Compare slope with model: Block et al, Phys. Rev. D41, pp 978, 1990.
This analysis based on Jorge Molina’s thesis:first FPD Ph D

Fall 2003 shutdown survey data (points A+B) made available by accelerator in March shows offsets of up to 0.7 cm! Required rewriting of MC to separate separators,reanalysis of acceptance.

ACCEPTANCEACCEPTANCEThe acceptance for the PD spectrometer:
Before sep correction: After sep correction:
Much better high-t acceptance (previously high-t data thoughtto be halo)

CORRELATION OF AU-PDCORRELATION OF AU-PDWhen the correlations are introduced, the acceptance is reduced, beginning at higher values of |t| due to the positions reached by the AU pots
Separator corrected
Noacc.for low t !
Which acceptanceto use?
Note that triggeris based only on scintillator hits anddominated by halo spray(only 2% real tracks), so low-t data is presumablysingle arm elastics, high-tdouble arm elastics

Elastic Summary
• Re-evaluating acceptance and backgrounds
• Will decide soon if sufficient confidence in results to publish
• Silver lining: nearly 100% of effort directly transferable to new analyses

• Start with a list of all global physics runs for which the FPD pots are inserted that have not been declared bad by another sub-detector group
• Filter out interesting triggers (from diffractive POV) on a run by run basis
• With p17, FPD information is in TMB so everything will be done with QCD_analyze
• Current Status– Final merging of pre-Nov 03 data underway– post-Nov 03 stripping started
Extract raw fpd fiber information fromraw (pre-Nov 03), DST (post-Nov 03)
put in a root tree
Use QCD_analyze to extract all other information from TMBs and put in a root tree
(using fixtmb2 version)
Sort tree by event number Sort tree by event number
Clone QCD tree, add matching FPD branch, compare each entry in trees
for matching event numbers and output to a merged tree for analysis
