Performance of CMS muon reconstruction in pp collision events at $\sqrt{s} = $ 7 TeV
J. Instrum. 7 (2012) P10002
Abstract: The performance of muon reconstruction, identification, and triggering in CMS has been studied using 40 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 7 TeV at the LHC in 2010. A few benchmark sets of selection criteria covering a wide range of physics analysis needs have been examined. For all considered selections, the efficiency to reconstruct and identify a muon with a transverse momentum $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ larger than a few GeVc is above 95% over the whole region of pseudorapidity covered by the CMS muon system, $|\eta|< $ 2.4, while the probability to misidentify a hadron as a muon is well below 1%. The efficiency to trigger on single muons with $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ above a few GeVc is higher than 90% over the full $\eta$ range, and typically substantially better. The overall momentum scale is measured to a precision of 0.2% with muons from Z decays. The transverse momentum resolution varies from 1% to 6% depending on pseudorapidity for muons with $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ below 100 GeV/$c$ and, using cosmic rays, it is shown to be better than 10% in the central region up to $p_{\mathrm{T}} = $ 1 TeV/$c$. Observed distributions of all quantities are well reproduced by the Monte Carlo simulation.

Figure 2:
(a) The longitudinal ($r$-$z$) and b) the transverse ($r$-$\phi $) views of a collision event in which four muons were reconstructed. The green (thin) curves in the inner cylinder represent tracks of charged particles reconstructed in the inner tracker with transverse momentum $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} > $ 1 GeV/$c$; those extending to the muon system represent tracks of muons reconstructed using hits in both inner tracker and the muon system. Three muons were identified by the DTs and RPCs, the fourth one by the CSCs. Short black stubs in the muon system show fitted muon-track segments; as the $z$ position is not measured in the outer barrel station, the segments in it are drawn at the $z$ centre of the wheel, with their directions perpendicular to the chamber. Short red (light) horizontal lines in the $r$-$z$ view indicate positions of RPC hits; energy depositions in the ECAL and HCAL are shown as red (light) and blue (dark) bars, respectively.

The inset is a zoom of the 8-12 GeV/$c^2$ region, showing the three $\Upsilon (nS)$ peaks clearly resolved owing to a good mass resolution, about 100 MeV/$c^2$ in the entire pseudorapidity range and 70 MeV/$c^2$ when both muons are within the range $|\eta | < 1$.

Distributions of kinematic variables for a sample of muons selected by the zero-bias trigger, for data (points) and for simulation subdivided into the different categories of contributing muons (histograms). The kinematic variables are the muon transverse momentum multiplied by the charge (top), pseudorapidity (middle), and azimuthal angle (bottom). For each variable, the left plot shows the distribution for Soft Muons, and the right plot that for Tight Muons. The first (last) bin in the $q \times {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ distributions includes the underflow (the overflow). The error bars indicate the statistical uncertainty, for both data and MC samples.

Relative transverse momentum resolution $\sigma ( {p_{\mathrm {T}}} )/ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ in data and simulation measured by applying the MuScleFit and SIDRA methods to muons produced in the decays of ${\mathrm{ Z } } $ bosons and passing the Tight Muon selection. The thin line shows the result of MuScleFit on data, with the grey band representing the overall (statistical and systematic) 1$\sigma $ uncertainty of the measurement. The circles are the result of MuScleFit on simulation. The downward-pointing and upward-pointing triangles are the results from SIDRA obtained on data and simulation, respectively; the resolution in simulation was evaluated by comparing the reconstructed and ``true'' $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ once the reconstructed $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ was corrected for $\phi $-dependent biases. The uncertainties for SIDRA are statistical only and are smaller than the marker size.

Figure 30:
Isolation efficiency for muons from ${\mathrm{ Z } } $ decays versus isolation efficiency for muons in the QCD-enhanced dataset described in the text, for tracker relative, tracker-plus-calorimeters relative, and particle-flow relative isolation algorithms. Muons are required to have $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ in the range between 20 and 50 GeV/$c$. The background rejection is limited by the 0.4% contamination from truly isolated muons.

Muon isolation efficiency versus $\eta $. Efficiency for muons with $ {p_{\mathrm {T}}} $ between 20 and 50 GeV/$c$ from ${\mathrm{ Z } } $ decays observed in 2010 data, in which the average number of reconstructed primary vertices (PV) is 2.4, is compared with the results obtained using MC samples with the same average number of primary vertices.

The first uncertainty quoted on the scale factor is the uncertainty on the efficiencies in data and simulation from the fitting procedure, which includes the statistical uncertainty; the second is from the additional systematic uncertainties described later in this section.

Summary
The performance of muon reconstruction, identification, and triggering in CMS has been studied extensively using 40 pb$^{-1}$ of data collected in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 7 TeV at the LHC in 2010. These data were used to study several representative muon selections, which were chosen as benchmarks covering a wide range of physics analysis needs. The distributions of kinematic and identification variables for muons reconstructed from inclusive data samples are generally in good agreement with predictions from simulation over the momentum range of $p_{\mathrm{T}} < $ 200 GeV/$c$, including variables sensitive to large hit occupancies in the muon detectors. Identification efficiencies, for muons with $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ larger than a few GeV/$c$, are above 95% for all selections studied. They are correctly reproduced by the Monte Carlo simulations. Misidentification is lower than 1% for the loosest selection and below 0.1% for the tightest. In the specific case of several nearby muons, where the tightest selection becomes less efficient, an optimized selection was developed to preserve high efficiency with only a minimal increase of misidentification. Two complementary methods have been developed to evaluate muon momentum scale biases and resolution in the range 20 $ < p_{\mathrm{T}} < $ 100 GeV/$c$, where the momentum measurement is provided by the tracker. The average bias $\Delta(p_{\mathrm{T}})/p_{\mathrm{T}}$ in the muon momentum scale was measured with a precision of better than 0.2% and was found to be consistent with zero. The relative $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ resolution is between 1.3% to 2.0% for muons in the barrel and better than 6% in the endcaps, in good agreement with simulation. The transverse momentum resolution of tracks reconstructed using information from only muon detectors is better than 10% in the barrel region. At high momenta, the best measurement of muon $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ is obtained by selective use of information from the muon system in addition to that from the inner tracker. The $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ resolution, evaluated in the barrel region using muons from cosmic rays, is better than 10% up to 1 TeV/$c$. Algorithms to identify cosmic and beam-halo backgrounds among collision events were developed and successfully used in physics analyses of 2010 data. The performance of various muon isolation algorithms was shown to be reasonably well modelled by the simulation. The muon trigger efficiency for isolated muons is better than 90% over the full $\eta$ range, and is typically substantially better. In this document we have shown that the performance specifications set out for the measurement of muons in CMS have largely been met. The good performance and detailed understanding of the muon reconstruction, identification, and triggering provides the necessary confidence in all elements of the chain from muon detection to muon analysis, which is essential for searches for physics beyond the Standard Model as well as accurate Standard Model measurements.
