Modeling missing transverse energy in V+jets at CERN LHC
arXiv:0906.5016 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.81.035005
Abstract
I discuss a method to model the instrumental response of the CMS and ATLAS detectors at high transverse missing energies to dominant standard model V+jets backgrounds, where V is a Z, gamma or W, using multi-jet QCD events. The method is developed for new physics searches in early data at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with minimal recourse to simulation.
