German LHC Physics School and Workshop 2010

27 Sept 2010, 09:00 → 1 Oct 2010, 17:00 Europe/Berlin

SemRm 2 (Bldg 2a) (Hamburg)

Thomas Schoerner-Sadenius (DESY)

The annual German LHC Physics Workshop brings together Ph.D. students, postdocs and senior physicists for a week of lectures, tutorials and discussions. The 2010 event will take place from 27 September - 1 October 2010 at DESY, Hamburg. It will focus on final states with leptons and jets, which are key ingredients for many topics like detector understanding and calibration, QCD, top physics, SUSY searches and others. Participants are kindly asked to take care of their own accommodation. One option is the DESY hostel. Please provide the key "LHC Physics Workshop 2010". The tutorials will be run on the German NAF. If you do not have a NAF account yet, please apply at http://naf.desy.de/general_naf_docu/naf_account/. In case of questions please don't hesitate to contact anacen@desy.de. We are very much looking forward to seeing you in Hamburg. Thomas Schoerner, Wolfgang Ehrenfeld, Matthias Kasemann, Andreas Meyer

Tutorial (Leptons)

The Tutorials will be separated by ATLAS and CMS. The following topics will be covered:

• Reconstruction of the mass peak of a Z boson with electrons(ATLAS)/muons(CMS) of different id and quality.
• Influence of an energy shift on the electrons(ATLAS)/muons(CMS) on the mass of the Z boson.
• Determination of a reconstruction of selection efficiency using tag and probe methods.

• Comparison of jet quantities derived from calorimeter based jets and particle flow based jets (CMS).
• The influence of shifts on the jet energy scale on the invariant dijet mass.
• The jet energy response at different levels of jet energy corrections.
