Muon Track Reconstruction Procedures at the Baikal-GVD Neutrino Telescope

The Baikal-GVD neutrino telescope is the largest neutrino detector of its kind in the Northern Hemisphere. Muons produced in neutrino interaction in the vicinity of the detector leave track-like response in the detector allowing to reconstruct the neutrino arrival direction with the precision up to 0.2 degree. The Baikal-GVD collaboration has developed a variety of methods for the track-like event analysis. Methods for track-like event direction and energy reconstruction and neutrino cadidate event selection are discussed in this report. Preliminary results of application of analysis pipeline to the data-taking seasons from 2019 to 2021 are shown.

Performance of the muon track reconstruction with the Baikal-GVD neutrino telescope

Baikal-GVD is a km$^3$-scale neutrino telescope being constructed in Lake Baikal. Muon and partially tau (anti)neutrino interactions near the detector through the W$^{\pm}$-boson exchange are accompanied by muon tracks. Reconstructed direction of the track is arguably the most precise probe of the neutrino direction attainable in Cerenkov neutrino telescopes. Muon reconstruction techniques adopted by Baikal-GVD are discussed in the present report. Performance of the muon reconstruction is studied using realistic Monte Carlo simulation of the detector. The algorithms are applied to real data from Baikal-GVD and the results are compared with simulations. The performance of the neutrino selection based on a boosted decision tree classifier is discussed.

Baikal-GVD: status and first results

Baikal-GVD is a cubic-kilometer scale deep-underwater neutrino detector being constructed in Lake Baikal. It is designed to detect neutrinos from $\sim$100 GeV to multi-PeV energies and beyond. Detector deployment began in Spring 2015. Since April 2020 the detector includes seven 8-string clusters carrying in total 2016 optical modules located at depths from 750 to 1275 meters. By the end of the first phase of detector construction in 2024 it is planned to deploy 15 clusters, reaching the effective volume for high-energy cascade detection of 0.75 km$^3$. The design and status of the Baikal-GVD detector and first results of data analysis are presented in this report.

CMS results on multijet correlations

We present recent measurements of multijet correlations using forward and low-$p_{\mathrm{T}}$ jets performed by the CMS collaboration at the LHC collider. In pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$ TeV, azimuthal correlations in dijets separated in rapidity by up to 9.4 units were measured. The results are compared to BFKL- and DGLAP-based Monte Carlo generator and analytic predictions. In pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV, cross sections for jets with $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ > 21 GeV and |y| < 4.7, and for track-jets with $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ > 1 GeV (minijets) are presented. The minijet results are sensitive to the bound imposed by the total inelastic cross section, and are compared to various models for taming the growth of the $2 \rightarrow 2$ cross section at low $p_{\mathrm{T}}$.
