Benchmarking an Even Better HEPTopTagger
arXiv:1312.1504 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.89.074047
Abstract
Top taggers are established analysis tools to reconstruct boosted hadronically decaying top quarks for example in searches for heavy resonances. We first present a dedicated study of signal efficiency versus background rejection, allowing for an improved choice of working points. Next, we determine to what degree our mass drop selection can be improved by systematically including angular correlations between the decay subjets. Finally, we extend the reach of the top tagger to transverse momenta below the top mass. This momentum range will be crucial in searches for the associated production of a Higgs boson with top quarks.
