Object Database for Constants: The common CLEO Online and Offline solution

Abstract

After the successful conclusion of the CLEO III phase, the CLEO experiment at the Cornell Electron Positron Storage Ring CESR is preparing for its transition to CLEO-c. This new program contains a wide array of Physics studies at e+ e- collisions at center of mass energies between 3 GeV and 5 GeV that will provide new insights into QCD. Because the existing Silicon Vertex Detector needed to be replaced within a short time, a 6 layer vertex drift chamber has been installed in spring 2003. At the same time, the existing Ring Imaging Cherenkov Detector, along with a conventional drift chamber, E.M. calorimeter and muon chambers, will continue to be part of the experiment. The CLEO Constants Database system must provide efficient access to detector and analysis constants for a wide variety of purposes, such as hardware configuration, Online operation and monitoring, calibration, and the complete CLEO analysis framework. Since the original project, implemented through the Objectivity Object Database Management System, did not meet those requirements, the system was redesigned from the ground up, using the same technology. It is currently being introduced into the production environment without significant interruptions. In this presentation, we will outline the specifications of the constants database system, and then report on the process that led to the redesign. Performance comparisons and insights on relevant design aspects will be shown.

Calibration of the jet energy scale and resolution of small-radius jets using semileptonic $t\bar{t}$ events with the ATLAS detector

A measurement of correction factors for the hadronic jet energy scale and resolution in the ATLAS detector is presented. These correction factors account for differences between simulated and observed data. They are obtained by analysing a selection of top quark events collected in proton-proton collisions by ATLAS between the years 2015 and 2018 at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV as well as in 2022 and 2023 at $\sqrt{s} = 13.6$ TeV. The impact of different jet energy scale or resolution corrections on the reconstructed mass of the hadronically decaying $W$ boson from top-quark decays in simulation is quantified. The correction factors are extracted from a fit to the parameterised reconstructed $W$-boson mass distribution to data. The energy scale and resolution corrections are measured as a function of the jet transverse momentum between 20 and 200 GeV and absolute pseudorapidity less than 0.8. The uncertainties in the energy scale range from about 0.93% to about 1.7% for jets between 35 and 200 GeV, while for the energy resolution the uncertainties range from about 14% to 28%. The method presented will be used in conjunction with other techniques to further improve ATLAS jet energy scale and resolution precision.

Search for anomalies in vector-boson fusion production of the Higgs boson in $H(\rightarrow γγ) jj$ events using 164 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected at $\sqrt{s}=13.6$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

This article details two studies of Higgs boson properties using the vector-boson fusion production mode and the $γγjj$ final state. Both efforts are based on a data sample corresponding to 164 fb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s}=13.6$ TeV proton--proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The first study employs matrix-element-based optimal observables to constrain CP-odd couplings beyond the Standard Model within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory framework, expressed in the Warsaw basis. The second study exploits angular distributions to probe the Higgs boson's couplings to longitudinally and transversely polarised $W$ and $Z$ bosons in the production of the Higgs boson. To maximise the sensitivity, the constraints of the CP-odd couplings are combined with those from a previous analysis performed in $γγjj$ events in a data sample of proton--proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 140 fb$^{-1}$. A significant improvement with respect to the previous analysis is achieved through the implementation of a new neural-network-based classification algorithm. All measurements are in agreement with the Standard Model prediction of a CP-even Higgs boson with the expected relative coupling strengths to longitudinally and transversely polarised vector bosons.

Probabilistic, Structure-Intrinsic Clustering with a Hierarchical Embedding (PSICHE) in Time and Space Applied In Particle Physics Jet Reconstruction

Jet reconstruction is an active and open area of particle physics research, with questions related to jet size, multiplicity, substructure, and experimental performance in the presence of pileup and noise. Analogous challenges are ubiquitous throughout other applications of unsupervised learning in the context of clustering and association. This paper introduces a new algorithm for clustering in the context of jet reconstruction: Probabilistic, Structure-Intrinsic Clustering with a Hierarchical Embedding (PSICHE). PSICHE addresses several challenges and shortcomings of existing jet clustering methods with novel features, including but not limited to: (i) dynamically-learned and variable jet (cluster) sizes, (ii) unsupervised, multi-scale learning of emergent features, like jet substructure and multiplicity, (iii) clustering in space and time, and (iv) incorporation of domain-specific experimental uncertainties. All of these properties are achieved in a self-consistent, probabilistic framework that is computationally tractable. Furthermore, demonstrations of these features are presented for a range of jet clustering examples in LHC scenarios for various physics phenomena, clustering inputs, pileup conditions, and detector performance parameters.
