155 :    
156 :     The overall functionality and performance of the muon
157 :     trigger slice with respect to data produced as part of the ATLAS Computing
158 :     System Commissioning effort is described.
159 :     % The muon slice is composed of three trigger levels: an hardware implemented
160 :     %Level1 (L1) and a software implemented High Level Trigger (HLT) composed
161 :     %of Level2 (L2) and Event Filter (EF).
162 :     % L1 uses the full granularity of the RPC and TGC to selects muons with
163 :     %transverse momentum above six programmable thresholds with a coarse evalua-
164 :     %tion of the muon direction, and associates the trigger candidate with the correct
165 : bigliett 1.2 %LHC bunch crossing. L2 algorithms run on a subsample of the event, determined by the RoI selected by L1,
166 :     %producing a feature data object containing muon measured quantities that will be used to perform the trigger decision.
167 : bigliett 1.1 %In the EF, offline muon reconstruction algorithms, adapted to work in the HLT
168 :     %framework, accesses and reconstructs the full event using more complex proce-
169 :     %dures and using offline services.
170 : bigliett 1.2 The physics performance in terms of trigger efficiency and accepted rate
171 : bigliett 1.1 is studied for the muon inclusive signatures for different luminosity scenarios.
172 :     Dedicated studies on physics samples with single and double muon final states
173 :     are also performed in order to evaluate the trigger efficiencies
174 :     on realistic data and background rejection capabilities.
175 :     Methods to evaluate muon trigger efficiency from real data are discussed.
176 : bigliett 1.2 %Furthermore, strategies to use muon signals in calorimeters to select isolated muons and
177 :     %for tagging muon in Tile are presented together with results

193 : bigliett 1.1 \section{Introduction}
194 :    
195 :     Triggering and identifying muons will be crucial for many LHC physics analyses.
196 :     %The possibility of identifying and triggering muons is crucial at LHC for most physics studies.
197 : bigliett 1.2 In accordance with the ATLAS general trigger scheme, the muon
198 :     trigger system has three distinct levels: L1, L2, and the Event
199 :     Filter (EF).
200 :     %agb comment
201 :     %Each trigger level refines the
202 :     %decisions made at the previous level and, where necessary, applies
203 :     %additional selection criteria. L1 uses a limited amount of the total
204 :     %detector information to make a decision in less than 2.5$\mu$s,
205 :     %reducing the rate to about 75 kHz.
206 :     %agb end
207 :     %The two higher levels access more detector information for a
208 : bigliett 1.1 %final rate of up to 200 Hz with an event size of approximately 1.5 Mbyte.
209 : bigliett 1.2 %The L1 trigger searches for high transverse-momentum muons
210 : bigliett 1.1 %using trigger chambers in the barrel and end-cap regions of the muon spectrometer.
211 :     %L1 is processed by the muon central trigger processor
212 :     % which combines the information from the two trigger system.
213 :     %The L1 trigger also provides Regions of Interest (RoI), i.e. geographical coordinates in
214 : bigliett 1.2 %$\eta$ and $\phi$, of those regions within the detector
215 :     %where its selection process has identified interesting object in the event.
216 :     %In addition, the RoIs also contain information about the $p_T$ threshold of the
217 :     %muon passed.
218 : bigliett 1.1 %This information is subsequently used by the High Level Trigger (HLT).
219 : bigliett 1.2 %agb com
220 :     %The L2 selection is seeded by the Regions of Interest (RoI)
221 :     %information provided by the L1 Trigger. All detector data within the
222 :     %L1 RoI are available for processing at L2.
223 :     %agb end
224 :     %The L2 selection is seeded by the RoI information provided by the L1 trigger and uses,
225 : bigliett 1.1 %at full granularity and precision, all available detector data within
226 : bigliett 1.2 %the RoI.
227 :     %agb com
228 :     %L2 is designed to reduce the trigger rate to approximately 3.5 kHz,
229 :     %for an average event processing time of approximately 10 ms.
230 :     %The final stage of the event selection is provided by the EF,
231 :     %which reduces the event rate to about 200 Hz.
232 :     %Its selection is implemented using offline analysis procedures and will have an average
233 :     %event processing time of order 1 s.
234 :     %agb end
235 :     The paper discusses the software tools used for muon trigger
236 :     reconstruction and the algorithm selection strategy and trigger
237 :     configuration. Next, the resolution and selection efficiencies of
238 :     the various muon triggers are presented, followed by a discussion of
239 :     the trigger rates for various luminosities. Subsequently, the
240 :     rejection of background from in-flight meson decays and selection of
241 :     isolated muons using calorimeter information is discussed. Finally,
242 :     the trigger performance on the di$-$muon final states \Zmm
243 :     %$Z \rightarrow
244 :     %\mu\mu$
245 :     and $Z^\prime \rightarrow \mu\mu$ is presented along with an
246 :     explanation of determining the trigger efficiency from collider
247 :     data.
248 :     %agb
249 :     % This paper is structured as follows. In the next Section
250 :     %the simulated samples are listed along with a short description of
251 :     %the software tools used for the muon trigger reconstruction. Section
252 :     %\ref{slice} describes the
253 :     % algorithm selection strategy and the muon trigger configuration.
254 :     %In Sections \ref{sec:l1_perf}, \ref{sec:l2_perf}, and
255 :     %\ref{sec:ef_perf} the resolution and selection efficiencies of the
256 :     %various muon triggers are presented. In Section \ref{sec:rates} the
257 :     %rates of the various muon trigger thresholds for a startup
258 :     %luminosity of \begL\ and nominal luminosity scenarios of \lowL\ and
259 :     %\highL\ are presented. The rejection of background from in-flight
260 :     %meson decays is addressed in Section \ref{EF_pi_K}. Selection of
261 :     %isolated muons with calorimeters is discussed in Section .
262 :     %Section \ref{sec:muiso_perf} presents a discussion of analysis for selecting
263 : bigliett 1.1 %isolated muons with Calorimeters together with the results.
264 : bigliett 1.2 %In Section \ref{sec:tile_perf} muon tagging with the Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) is presented.
265 :     %Finally, Sections \ref{sec:trig_from_data} and \ref{sec:highmass} show the trigger performance on
266 :     %the di$-$muon final states $Z \rightarrow \mu\mu$ and $Z^\prime \rightarrow \mu\mu$ and explain how the trigger efficiency can be determined
267 :     %from real data.
268 : bigliett 1.1
269 : bigliett 1.2 \section{Detector simulation and data samples }
270 : bigliett 1.1 \label{Datasamples}
271 :     The samples used in this paper were produced using a full GEANT4 based
272 :     simulation of the ATLAS detector produced within the Computing System Commissioning (CSC) Data Challange.
273 :     %The full list of CSC samples used in this note is shown in Appendix A.
274 : bigliett 1.2 %All the samples were simulated with ATLAS software release 12 and detector description version
275 :     %ATLAS-CSC-01-02-00. This geometry takes into account several realistic effects as
276 :     %chamber misalignment obtained by tilting and shifting randomly the muon chambers
277 :     % with an RMS of 1 mrad and 1 mm respectively, and
278 :     %magnetic field map with initial displacements.
279 : bigliett 1.1 %Additional checks have been performed on the same samples reconstructed with the most recent reconstruction version implemented in
280 :     % {\scshape Athena} release 13.
281 : bigliett 1.2 %The analyses have been performed both from the Analysis Object Data (AOD) and from custom ROOT ntuples
282 : bigliett 1.1 %which are produced by running the muon slice over RDO files.
283 : bigliett 1.2 %L1 Simulation and HLT reconstruction were run with ATLAS release 12.0.6,
284 :     %using the same geometry database of simulation.
285 :     The trigger simulation options included both standard and
286 :     $B$-physics trigger simulation configurations, which correspond to
287 :     the standard and the low trigger thresholds (see
288 :     Section~\ref{slice}). The deterioration of efficiency due to the
289 :     geometrical acceptance and the limited size of coincidence window
290 :     are taken into account in the L1 simulation and trigger logic
291 :     emulator.
292 :    
293 :     Large samples of single prompt muons, simulated uniformely in
294 :     $\eta-\phi$, with fixed $\pt$ ranging from 2 GeV to 1 TeV, have been
295 :     used to study the muon trigger performance.
296 : bigliett 1.1 %A detailed list of the used datasets is shown in Table \ref{tab:single_muons}.
297 : bigliett 1.2 %The motivation of such large sample is two-fold: the need to have a reasonable estimation
298 :     %of the very low efficiency of the Muon Trigger system
299 :     %for low pt muons ($10^{-5}$ for trasverse momentum around 2 GeV)
300 :     %and the necessity to refine the L2 LUTs for some key $\pt$ threshold (6, 20 and 40 GeV).
301 :     One of the main backgrounds for the muon trigger selection comes
302 :     from in-flight decays of charged kaons and pions. This has been
303 :     evaluated using samples of minimum bias events and single pions,
304 :     where the mesons are forced to decay inside the Inner Detector
305 :     cavity in order to facilitate
306 :     the production of a sizable sample of in-flight $\pi/\kaon$ decays.
307 : bigliett 1.1 %The list of the used datasets is shown in Table \ref{tab:single_pions}.
308 :     Muon trigger rates were determined using both single muons and minimum bias events.
309 : bigliett 1.2 % listed
310 : bigliett 1.1 %in Table \ref{tab:min_bias}.
311 : bigliett 1.2 The selection of muons using the Tile Calorimeter has been studied
312 :     using low $\pt$ single muons
313 :     %(in Table \ref{tab:single_muons})
314 :     and semi-inclusive
315 :     $b$ quark decays, $b\bar{b}\rightarrow\mu(4)X$ and $b\bar{b}\rightarrow\mu(6)X$.

319 :     %The accidental muon triggers coming from uncorrelated hits in the muon chambers (the muon cavern background)
320 : bigliett 1.2 %have been evaluated using sample of minimum bias events
321 :     % and single muons events with pile-up and muon cavern background corresponding
322 :     %to low luminosity running ({\cal L}=10$^{33}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$) and different levels of
323 : bigliett 1.1 %safety factors superimposed.
324 : bigliett 1.2 %(??)
325 :     Muon trigger studies on high-$p_{T}$ dimuon final states and the
326 :     determination of trigger efficiency from data have been performed
327 :     using

330 :     and $Z^\prime \rightarrow \mu\mu$ as

332 :     \rightarrow \tau \tau $ and top-pair events as background
333 :     processes.
334 :     %This analysis have been carried out using the AOD samples listed in

337 : bigliett 1.2 %All simulation, digitization and reconstruction were done using the
338 : bigliett 1.1 %LCG GRID through Ganga~\cite{Ganga} and OSG GRID through Panda~{Panda}.
339 : bigliett 1.2 %Some technical aspects of the analyses required the development of analysis tools reading directly
340 : bigliett 1.1 %from raw data (RDO) and producing custom information (for expert use) in AANT together with standard AOD.

346 : bigliett 1.1 \label{slice}
347 : bigliett 1.2 %In this section the general configuration of the Muon Trigger is discussed.
348 : bigliett 1.1 %Since it is continously evolving, a version of the code has to be singled out
349 : bigliett 1.2 %as the reference for this note. For this purpose the version mostly used the the studies reported
350 :     %in this work is chosen (ATLAS release 12.0.6).
351 : bigliett 1.1 %Readers will need to do the required adaptions to newer versions of the muon trigger slice.
352 :    
353 : bigliett 1.2 %%% L1 DESCRIPTION
354 : bigliett 1.1 The L1 muon trigger selects active RoIs, in the event using Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) \cite{muon}
355 :     in the barrel ($|\eta|<$ 1.05) and Thin Gap Chambers (TGC) \cite{muon} in the endcaps (1.05 $<|\eta|<$ 2.4).
356 :     The trigger algorithms look for hit coincidences within different
357 :     RPC or TGC detector layers inside the programmed geometrical windows
358 :     which define the transverse momentum region. A coincidence is required
359 :     in both $\eta$ and $\phi$ projections.
360 :     The information about muon candidates in both the barrel
361 : bigliett 1.2 and the end-cap is transmitted to the Muon to Central Trigger Processor
362 : bigliett 1.1 Interface (MuCTPI) \cite{muon}, which calculates the number of
363 :     L1 muon candidates in 6 different $p_T$ regions and takes overlaps
364 :     between the trigger sectors into account by using look-up-tables (LUT).
365 :     %The L1 signatures, or trigger items, are combinations of requirements
366 :     %(or trigger conditions) on the multiplicities of various kinds of candidate objects delivered
367 : bigliett 1.2 %by the muon triggers.
368 : bigliett 1.1 There are several L1 items each corresponding to a different $p_T$ threshold:
369 :     \begin{itemize}
370 : bigliett 1.3 \item mu0, mu5, mu6, mu8, mu10 for the low $p_T$ selection;
371 :     \item mu11, mu20, mu40 for the high $p_T$ selection.
372 : bigliett 1.1 \end{itemize}
373 : bigliett 1.3 \noindent The integer numbers after the ``mu'' symbolize the
374 : bigliett 1.2 required $p_T$ threshold. L1 also provides the coordinates in
375 : bigliett 1.3 $\eta$ and $\phi$ of the selected RoIs. The mu0 threshold represents
376 : bigliett 1.2 a L1 configuration with completely open coincidence windows; it is
377 :     also called the ``Cosmic'' threshold as it can be used to trigger on
378 :     cosmic rays during the detector commissioning phase and between the
379 :     LHC fills.
380 : bigliett 1.1 Similar thresholds, labeled with ``muXX'', have been defined for L2 and EF.
381 :    
382 : bigliett 1.2 The muon HLT runs L2 and EF algorithms. It starts from the RoI
383 :     delivered by the L1 trigger and applies trigger decisions in a
384 :     series of steps, each refining the existing measurement by acquiring
385 :     additional information from the ATLAS detectors. A list of physics
386 :     signatures, implemented in the event reconstruction and selection
387 :     algorithms, are used to build signature and sequence tables for all
388 :     HLT steps. This stepwise and seeded processing of events is
389 :     controlled by the trigger steering. The reconstruction progresses by
390 :     calling feature extraction algorithms. These typically request
391 :     detector data from within the RoI and attempt to identify muon
392 :     features.
393 : bigliett 1.1 %At the end algorithms update the RoI position if it has been more accurately determined.
394 :     Subsequently, a hypothesis algorithm determines whether the identified feature meets
395 : bigliett 1.2 the criteria necessary to continue. The decision to reject the event
396 :     or continue is based on the validity of signatures, taking into
397 :     account prescale and pass-through factors. Thus, events can be
398 :     rejected after an intermediate step if no signatures remain viable.
399 :    
400 :     The main algorithm of the muon L2 system, muFast, runs on full
401 :     granularity data within the RoI defined by L1. An optimized strategy
402 :     is used to avoid heavy calculations and access to external services
403 :     to reduce the execution time of the algorithm. After pattern
404 :     recognition driven by the trigger hits which selects Monitored Drift

752 : bigliett 1.1 \label{sec:l2_perf}
753 :     As described in Section \ref{Datasamples}, algorithm performance is
754 :     evaluated on samples of single muons generated with different
755 : bigliett 1.2 transverse momenta.
756 :     %The trigger simulation version is 12.0.6.
757 :     The resolution of the inverse of the measured momentum with respect
758 :     to the generated transverse momentum is studied. Due to the
759 :     non-uniform magnetic field in the Muon Spectrometer it is divided
760 :     into four regions according to the pseudoraptidity of the muon
761 :     candidate: the Barrel region with $|\eta|<1.05$, and three end-cap
762 :     regions with
763 :     $1.05<|\eta|<1.5$, $1.5<|\eta|<2.0$, and
764 :     $2.0<|\eta|<2.4$.

785 : bigliett 1.2 For the Muon Spectrometer standalone reconstruction (muFast), the
786 :     resolution of inverse $\pt$ as a function of the muon transverse
787 :     momentum is shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:mufast_muon_resolution}. The
788 : bigliett 1.1 degradation in the resolution with respect to previous results
789 :     \cite{pisa_meet} is caused by the realistic geometry misalignment
790 : bigliett 1.2 introduced in the muon simulation. Resolution as function of $\eta$
791 :     and $\phi_{Loc}$\footnote{$\phi_{Loc}$ is the azimuthal angle folded
792 :     up
793 :     in $[0,\pi/16]$ such to cover half of an odd MS sector ($[0,\pi/32]$) and half of

795 :     The degradation of the
796 : bigliett 1.1 resolution in the endcap regions is evident.
797 :     %The resolution as a function of

1025 :     \label{sec:ef_perf} The full reconstruction in the Muon EF has been

1027 :     Section~\ref{Datasamples}. The reconstruction in the Muon

1044 :     The efficiency is defined on an event basis, and counts only once events having L2 muon-feature or EF track multiplicity greater than 1. According to this definition, the efficiency

1046 : bigliett 1.1 with respect to what estimated here.
1047 :    
1048 : bigliett 1.2 The efficiencies are lower in the range $p_T$ between 3 and 6 GeV
1049 :     due to multiple scattering and energy loss fluctuation effects.
1050 :     Moreover, in the case of MuId Combined, at very high $\pt$ the
1051 :     increasing probability of muon showering is responsible for a small
1052 :     loss in efficiency. The efficiencies as a function of $\eta$ and

1440 : bigliett 1.1
1441 : bigliett 1.2 A single muon can be detected in multiple muon trigger sectors,
1442 :     causing a fake dimuon trigger. Such fake triggers can be suppressed
1443 :     by the overlap handling implemented in the MuCTPI . For the single
1444 :     muon samples used in the analysis, the fake dimuon trigger
1445 :     probability is defined as
1446 : bigliett 1.1
1447 :     \begin{equation}
1448 :     P_{\rm fake} = \frac{\rm Number~of~events~with~more~than~one~muon~triggered}

1450 :     \end{equation}

1452 : bigliett 1.2 %The fake dimuon trigger probabilities have been calculated for both

1455 : bigliett 1.1 %when a single muon is detected
1456 :     % by two overlapping RPC sectors (Barrel-Barrel double counts, BB),
1457 :     % by an overlapping RPC-TGC sector pair (Barrel-Endcap double counts, BE),
1458 :     % by two overlapping ``Endcap'' TGC sectors (Endcap-Endcap double counts, EE) and
1459 :     %by two overlapping ``Forward'' TGC sectors (Forward-Forward double counts, FF)
1460 :     \begin{itemize}
1461 :    
1462 :     \item Barrel-Barrel double counts (BB): When a single muon is detected
1463 :     by two overlapping RPC sectors.

1475 :    
1476 :     The probabilities that a single muon would cause any of these fake

1757 : bigliett 1.1 % by processing the single pion
1758 :     %sample with the standard L1 and HLT emulation chain.
1759 :     There is a very poor rejection capability ($\lesssim 90\%$) for muons coming
1760 :     from pion decays, which demonstrates that the standard muon
1761 :     identification procedures are not very sensitive, as expected, to the
1762 :     small kink between the pion and muon tracks. The kinematics of charged
1763 :     kaon two-body decays, which are the dominating kaon contribution to
1764 :     the muon rate, is much more favorable toward rejection due to
1765 :     the larger average value of the angle between the kaon and the muon
1766 :     tracks. In order to improve the rejection capability, additional
1767 :     measured parameters providing some discriminating power between
1768 :     background and primary muons have been identified:
1769 :     \begin{itemize}
1770 :     \item the impact parameter, $\rm d_0$, of the track reconstructed in the inner
1771 : bigliett 1.2 tracker;
1772 : bigliett 1.1 %the width of the distribution of such parameter depends on the
1773 :     %resolution of the ID reconstruction; low quality reconstructed
1774 :     %tracks,with hits produced before and after the decay kink, exhibit spoiled
1775 :     %resolution on the impact parameter. Moreover, in case only the hits associated to the
1776 :     %muon track are actually used in the fit, the impact parameter would be an
1777 : bigliett 1.2 %indirect measurement of the decay kink;
1778 : bigliett 1.1 \item
1779 :     % as a consequence of the kink some hits in the ID, most probably those at

1782 : bigliett 1.2 %procedure; for this reason
1783 : bigliett 1.1 the number of hits associated to the Inner Detector track in the

1795 :     %the muon can lead to a tail at high values; due to the steeply falling $\rm

1797 :     %transverse momentum;

1804 :     The discrimination power of each variable has been studied by
1805 :     measuring the fraction of accepted events as a function of the cut
1806 :     applied for both isolated muons and fake muons above a given
1807 :     $\pt$ threshold.
1808 : bigliett 1.2 The results, shown in Fig.~\ref{figDiscriminatingCuts}, are based on the simulations of single
1809 : bigliett 1.1 muons and single pions with forced decays. For each variable, the

1828 :     From the analysis of the exclusive rejection power of the individual

1835 : bigliett 1.1 \end{itemize}
1836 : bigliett 1.2 In particular, these values have been chosen by considering
1837 :     efficiency and background rejection at $\pt = 4~GeV$. It is assumed

1876 :     \subsection{Optimization procedure}
1877 :    
1878 : bigliett 1.2 The L2 isolation algorithm is seeded by either muFast or muComb. The
1879 :     algorithm decodes LAr and Tile Calorimeter quantities (i.e.
1880 :     transverse energy deposit or sums of calorimetric cells above a
1881 :     predefined energy threshold) in cones centered around the muon
1882 :     direction. The geometrical definition of these cones is given by the
1883 :     condition $\Delta R < \Delta R_{MAX}$, where $\Delta R =
1884 :     \sqrt(\Delta\eta^2+\Delta\phi^2)$, and $\Delta\eta$, $\Delta\phi$
1885 :     are the distances in pseudorapidity and azimuthal angle between the
1886 :     calorimetric cell and the cone axis. Because the muon itself
1887 :     contributes to the energy deposit inside the cone, to improve the
1888 :     discriminating power of the isolation algorithm, two different
1889 :     concentric cones are defined: an internal cone chosen to contain the
1890 :     energy deposit released by the muon itself, and an external one,
1891 :     supposed to include contributions only from detector noise, pile-up
1892 :     and jet particles if present. The optimization of the muon isolation
1893 :     algorithm consists of determining the optimal size of the inner and
1894 :     outer cone radius, the values of the cell energy thresholds, used to
1895 :     compute the transverse energy and number of cells sums, and the

1938 : bigliett 1.2 A muon track passing through the calorimetry will deposit energy in
1939 :     the cells which immediately surround it. The deposited energy can
1940 :     be contained within some cone of radius $R_{Inner}$, where $R =
1941 :     \sqrt{\Delta\eta^2+\Delta\phi^2}$. If the muon is isolated, there
1942 :     will be little energy deposited in cells which lie in an outer
1943 :     annulus around this ($R\in[R_{Inner},R_{Outer}$). The radius of the
1944 :     inner cone (i.e. the cone fully containing the muon) has been
1945 :     determined from the distribution of the summed transverse energy
1946 :     contained within a cone of increasing radius around the muon
1947 :     direction from $Z\rightarrow\mu\mu$, as shown in
1948 :     Figure~\ref{fig:muiso1}. The value of $R$ corresponding to the inner
1949 :     cone radius is visible as a change in the slope of the curve. Once
1950 :     the radius for which all the muon energy is contained in the cone is
1951 :     reached, for each further increase of the cone radius only noise
1952 :     will be summed, resulting in a reduction of the slope of the energy
1953 :     sum curve. The reduction in the slope depends on the level of
1954 :     electronic readout noise per cell, as shown in
1955 :     Fig.~\ref{fig:muiso1}, where curves for several values of the
1956 :     threshold cut on the calorimetric cell energy is shown, ranging from
1957 :     40 to 90 MeV. The effect of the electronic noise is only relevant
1958 :     for the LAr calorimeter. From the two figures it can be seen that a
1959 :     cone of radius $0.1$ (one readout cell), is sufficient to contain
1960 :     the muon energy deposition in the hadronic calorimeter, while a
1961 :     radius of about $0.07$ (one to three readout cells, depending on
1962 :     position), is sufficient for the electromagnetic calorimeter, due to
1963 :     the finer readout granularity. The value of the outer cone radius is
1964 :     instead constrained by timing requirements. Increasing the outer
1965 :     cone radius requires a larger fraction of the calorimeter to be
1966 :     read out and decoded. Because the readout step of the algorithm
1967 :     dominates the execution time ($>90\%$ of the overall algorithm time)
1968 :     the requirement to keep the overall timing below $O(10)~ms$
1969 :     constrains the maximum outer cone radius to be below about $0.4$. We

1971 :     keeping the outer cone radius at is maximum value.

2124 :     and dijet background reduction, efficiency of benchmark signal
2125 :     channels and timing is presented below. The performance of isolation
2126 :     algorithms can be affected by the instantaneous luminosity since the
2127 :     pile-up requires higher thresholds for the same nominal efficiency.
2128 :     This is particularly true for calorimetry-based isolation, while for
2129 :     track-based isolation the effect can be reduced by requiring that
2130 :     the contributing tracks come from the same primary vertex as the
2131 :     muon. For this reason, the results of this study should be taken as
2132 :     preliminary and valid only in the framework of the approximations
2133 :     used in the simulated events production for these studies. Possible
2134 :     changes and further development may occur as soon as real data is
2135 :     available.
2136 :    
2137 :     The effect of isolation algorithms on various sources of
2138 :     non-isolated muons at L2 is shown in Table~\ref{tab:muiso3}. The
2139 :     quantity $1 - \epsilon_{BG}$ is shown for the isolation requirements
2140 :     corresponding to a working point for the isolation algorithm with a
2141 :     nominal $Z\to\mu\mu$ signal efficiency of $95\%$. Results from dijet
2142 :     decays give an estimate of the rejection power of the isolation
2143 :     algorithm for high-$p_T$ muons from $K$ and $\pi$ in flight decays.
2144 :     The rejection power for low-$p_T$ muons from $b\bar{b}$ decays
2145 : bigliett 1.3 selected by the level 2 mu6 requirement has also been estimated. The
2146 : bigliett 1.2 reduction in rejection power, from a factor $10$ to a factor of
2147 :     about $2$, at the low-$p_T$ limit is expected, given the low energy
2148 :     associated with the jets. As already mentioned, calorimetry based
2149 :     isolation algorithms are not effective against these kind of muons,
2150 :     and the track-based isolation is expected to be much more powerful
2151 :     in reducing this kind of background.

2232 :     typically out of reach for the spectrometer.

2235 :     segmentation. The search starts from the outermost layer, which is
2236 :     the one with the cleanest signal, and once a cell is found with
2237 :     energy compatible with a muon, the algorithm checks the energy
2238 :     deposition in the neighbor cells for the most internal layers. These
2239 :     ``candidate patterns'' are considered as muons when cells
2240 :     compatible with the typical muon energy deposition are found
2241 :     following a $\eta$-projective pattern in all the three TileCal
2242 :     layers. More details can be found in Ref.~\cite{TileMuId}.

2244 :     \subsection{Performance}
2245 :     \label{subsec:TileMuId}
2246 :    
2247 : bigliett 1.2 The performance of the TileMuId algorithms has been studied with
2248 :     MonteCarlo single muons and semi-inclusive muon production
2249 : bigliett 1.1 ($b\bar{b}\rightarrow\mu(4)X$) samples.
2250 :     The effect of minimum-bias pileup at low luminosity ($\mathcal{L}=10^{33}
2251 :     {\rm cm}^{-2}{\rm s}^{-1}$) has been investigated as well.
2252 :    
2253 :    
2254 :     Two algorithms, implementing complementary strategies are described,
2255 : bigliett 1.2 one (TrigTileLookForMuAlg) is fully executed on the LVL2 Processing
2256 :     Unit (PU) the second (TrigTileRODMuAlg) has a core part executed on
2257 :     the Read Out Driver Digital Signal Processor (ROD-DSP) in order to
2258 :     save time. This allows a very fast processing of the entire
2259 :     detector (full scan) as opposed to the RoI based processing typical
2260 :     of the trigger algorithm running on the LVL2 PUs. Since each ROD-DSP
2261 :     processes a small part of the detector readout the TrigTileRODMuAlg
2262 :     acceptance is lower compared with that of TrigTileLookForMuAlg.
2263 :    
2264 :    
2265 :     \subsubsection{Spatial resolution}
2266 :    
2267 :     The spatial resolution of the algorithms can be studied using the
2268 :     distributions of the residuals $\Delta\eta =\eta(\mu_{\rm Tile}) -
2269 :     \eta(\mu_{\rm Truth})$ and $\Delta\phi=\phi(\mu_{\rm Tile}) -
2270 :     \phi(\mu_{\rm Truth})$ in single muon events with $2$ $\le p_{\rm T}
2271 :     \le 15$ GeV.
2272 : bigliett 1.1 %Figure~\ref{fig:TileMuId_resolution} shows these distributions for two
2273 : bigliett 1.2 %algorithms, TrigTileLookForMuAlg and TrigTileRODMuAlg.

2302 : bigliett 1.2 %Note that the $\Delta\eta$-distribution for TrigTileLookForMuAlg is slightly

2361 : bigliett 1.2 Figure~\ref{fig:single_muons_eff_eta_phi_pt_Look_ROD_tight} shows
2362 :     the efficiency as a function of $\eta$, $\phi$, and $p_{\rm T}$ of
2363 :     the muon for the two algorithms as obtained using the single muon
2364 :     sample. The efficiency of TileRODMu is lower than that of
2365 :     TileLookForMu. In the region $0.8 \le |\eta| \le 1.1$ the towers are
2366 :     split between the barrel and the extended barrels, and the cells
2367 :     belonging to different partitions are processed by different ROD
2368 :     DSPs. Similar effects are observed for the boundary at $\eta\sim
2369 :     0$.
2370 : bigliett 1.1 %At the ROD level the muon tagging algorithm does not cover completely
2371 :     %these particular towers.
2372 :     %The lower efficiency from TileRODMu is also observed for $\eta\sim 0$,
2373 : bigliett 1.2 %as the central cell in the outermost layer (D0 cell) is read-out by
2374 :     %two photomultipliers that are connected to different readout system
2375 : bigliett 1.1 %and finally allow their signal to be processed by different ROD DSPs.
2376 : bigliett 1.2 Except for these two regions of low geometrical acceptance both algorithms show
2377 :     efficiency $\sim 85\%$ with good agreement.
2378 :     Since TileCal is homogeneous in $\phi$, the efficiency is uniform as
2379 :     a function of $\phi$, see
2380 :     Fig.~\ref{fig:single_muons_eff_eta_phi_pt_Look_ROD_tight} (center).
2381 :     The efficiency decreases with the muon $p_{\rm T}$ for $p_{\rm
2382 :     T}<3$~GeV and is about 42$\%$ at $p_{\rm T}=2$~GeV. Most of the
2383 :     muons with $p_{\rm T} \leq 2$~GeV stop in the Tile
2384 :     calorimeter.
2385 :     For $p_{\rm T} \ge 4$~GeV the efficiency is flat at about 60$\%$.
2386 :     Figure~\ref{fig:bbmu6X_eff_eta_pt_Look_ROD_tight} (left) and
2387 :     (center) show the efficiency curves for both algorithms as obtained
2388 :     in $b\bar{b}\rightarrow\mu(6)X$ events. These results are in good
2389 :     agreement with the performance obtained using single muons,
2390 :     indicating that the algorithms are not too sensitive to the
2391 :     additional hadronic activity in $b\bar{b}$ events.
2392 : bigliett 1.1 %Similary to the single muons case, large differences between
2393 :     %the efficiency of the two algorithms can be seen in the gap region.
2394 :    
2395 : bigliett 1.2 %The previous results are valid in the limit of very low luminosity
2396 :     %when the pileup of minimum-bias events can be neglected.
2397 :     To evaluate the performance in a realistic LHC operation scenario
2398 :     a sample of $b\bar{b}\rightarrow\mu(6)X$ events simulated with
2399 :     pileup of minimum-bias events at a luminosity
2400 :     $\mathcal{L}=10^{33}$ cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ was used. As shown in
2401 :     Fig.~\ref{fig:bbmu6X_eff_eta_pt_Look_ROD_tight} (right), the
2402 :     efficiencies as a function of $p_{\rm T}$ for two cases are similar
2403 :     for $p_{\rm T}> 5$ GeV. The additional muons from minimum-bias
2404 :     events make the efficiency worse in the low $p_{\rm T}$ region. The
2405 :     average efficiency in the sample with pileup (67.97$\pm$0.81)$\%$
2406 : bigliett 1.1 is slightly lower than the one obtained without pileup
2407 : bigliett 1.2 (74.25$\pm$0.79)$\%$. It can be concluded that the efficiency is not
2408 :     substantially affected by minimum-bias pileup.

2698 :     The trigger efficiency is a fundamental parameter in physics
2699 :     analyses and therefore it is important to have several independent
2700 :     methods for estimating it. The ``Tag and Probe'' method is a
2701 :     concrete application of a data-driven technique for performance
2702 :     analysis. This method is based on the definition of a ``probe-like''
2703 :     object, used to make the performance measurement, within a properly
2704 :     ``tagged'' sample of events. Physics processes suitable for this
2705 :     method are generally those characterized by a double-object final
2706 :     state signature. The decay of the Z provides two high-$p_{T}$ muons
2707 :     that can lead to two trigger tracks in the
2708 :     Inner Detector and Muon Spectrometer and to a combined object.
2709 :     These two measurements are in principle independent, thought not
2710 :     necessarily uncorrelated.
2711 :    
2712 :     ``Tagged'' events require one triggered track with $\pt~>$ 20~GeV
2713 :     %and, within this sample, the
2714 :     and ``Probe'' objects can be defined as \emph{Inner Detector offline
2715 :     reconstructed tracks (ID-Probe)}, where measurements are referred to
2716 :     the offline Inner Detector reconstruction efficiency ($\sim$100\%),
2717 :     or as \emph{Muon Spectrometer offline reconstructed tracks
2718 :     (MS-Probe)}, where values are normalized to the offline Muon
2719 :     Spectrometer reconstruction efficiency (standalone or combined with
2720 :     the Inner Detector).
2721 :    
2722 :     The trigger performance is measured by checking for L1, L2, and EF
2723 :     trigger tracks associated with each probe object. A schematic
2724 :     illustration of the method is shown in
2725 :     Fig.~\ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_Samples}. It must be verified that
2726 :     selected tracks come from a Z decay. A background process with two
2727 :     isolated tracks in the Inner Detector, of which only one is a real
2728 :     muon, would introduce a systematic error in the efficiency
2729 :     evaluation.
2730 : bigliett 1.1 For this reason, cuts have to be applied in order to select a clean signal sample.\\
2731 : bigliett 1.2 A significant background contribution is expected from QCD
2732 :     processes, which have large cross-sections. This background has been
2733 :     studied by considering the dominant contribution of muons from
2734 :     decays of $B$-meson pairs. Also the muonic W boson decay, which can
2735 :     give a higher energetic muon plus an additional muon from a QCD jet
2736 :     and the $Z \rightarrow \tau^{+}\tau^{-} \rightarrow
2737 :     \mu^{+}\nu_{\mu}\bar{\nu_{\tau}}~\mu^{-}\bar{\nu_{\mu}}\nu_{\tau}$
2738 :     process have been considered.
2739 :    
2740 :     Moreover the top-pair production cross-section at LHC is of the same
2741 :     order of magnitude as $Z$ boson cross-section. Top quarks decay with
2742 :     a 99.9\% probability into a $W$boson and a $b$ quark. Therefore
2743 :     muons originating from $W$ boson and $b$-quark decays can also give
2744 :     a signal-like signature. Cross-sections and generation cuts of the
2745 :     processes considered are reported in
2746 :     Fig.~\ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_Samples}. PYTHIA~\cite{pythia5} is used
2747 :     to generate the processes.
2748 :    
2749 : bigliett 1.1 Another possible source of background is muons from cosmic-rays.

2829 :     \item \textit{Low luminosity} ($\int\mathcal{L}dt \simeq$ 50~pb$^{-1}$): in order to not rely on the combined reconstruction based on Inner Detector and Muon Spectrometer matching, only the tracks from the Muon Spectrometer are used. The isolation cuts are also based only on Inner Detector quantities;
2830 :     \item \textit{High luminosity} ($\int\mathcal{L}dt \simeq 1000~pb^{-1}$): full combined information from Inner Detector and Muon Spectrometer is used and also Calorimeter based cuts are applied to select isolated tracks.
2831 :     \end{itemize}
2832 :     In each scenario both the ID- and MS-Probe methods have been studied.
2833 : bigliett 1.2 The efficiency dependence on $\phi$ and $\eta$ is determined by the Muon Spectrometer layout.
2834 :     %and the binning in these quantities has been chosen accordingly to it.
2835 :     A $\pt$ cut of 20~GeV has been applied on the probe tracks to test

2918 :     is shown in Fig.~\ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_LowLumi_Eff_IDProbe} using
2919 :     the ID-probe. L1 acceptance losses are related to an incomplete
2920 :     coverage of the trigger detectors due to the presence of support and
2921 :     access structures. The L2 efficiency, with respect to the L1
2922 :     selection, is about 96\% in the barrel region with a small decrease
2923 :     in the endcap, an improvement is expected due to optimization of
2924 :     the TGC cabling in next software releases.
2925 :     % (this is expected to improve
2926 :     %by using different analysis techniques).
2927 :     The EF shows an $\eta$ efficiency distribution, with respect to L2,
2928 :     close to 99\% in the barrel region and a very small decrease from
2929 :     $|\eta| > 2.0$. In the region $1.05<|\eta|<1.3$ the absence of the
2930 :     some MDT chambers in the ATLAS initial layout.\footnote{
2931 :     Missing chambers are scheduled to be installed by the end of 2009.}
2932 : bigliett 1.1 %cause an efficiency loss of about 10\%.\\
2933 :     The observed agreement with the Monte Carlo truth-based analysis is very good. In order to quantitatively estimate the bin-by-bin differences the ``fractional efficiency difference''
2934 :     \begin{eqnarray}
2935 :     \frac{\epsilon_{Tag\&Probe} - \epsilon_{MC}}{\epsilon_{MC}}
2936 :     \label{TP_fed}

2938 : bigliett 1.2 has been computed. This quantity is shown for each trigger level in Fig.~\ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_LowLumi_Eff_IDProbe} as a function of $\eta$.\\
2939 :     The agreement between Tag and Probe method and Monte Carlo analysis
2940 :     is very high, more than 99\% over all the trigger coverage. The only
2941 :     observed deviations, at the level of 2\%, are found in the central
2942 :     crack at $\eta = 0$ and in the transitions from barrel to endcap at
2943 :     $|\eta| = 1.05$. The results obtained by the application of the Tag
2944 :     and Probe method using the standalone MS-Probe are reported in
2945 :     Fig.~\ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_LowLumi_Eff_Diff_MSProbe} as a functions
2946 :     of $\eta$.
2947 : bigliett 1.1 %Similar results have been obtained for the $\phi$ distributions.\\
2948 : bigliett 1.2 With respect to the values shown in Fig.~\ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_LowLumi_Eff_IDProbe} inefficiencies due to L1 acceptance cracks are partially factorized in the offline muon reconstruction efficiency of the MS-Probe (e.g. the $\eta = 0$ region.). %The factorization is not complete due to the better coverage of the precision chambers.
2949 :     The same effect is clearly evident at the EF level for the
2950 :     efficiency loss at $1.05<|\eta|<1.3$ visible in Figure
2951 :     \ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_LowLumi_Eff_IDProbe}.
2952 :    
2953 :     Table \ref{TaP_Muon_Trigger_LowLumi_OverAll_Table} shows the
2954 :     uncertainties on the overall trigger efficiency in each case,
2955 :     calculated also only in barrel and endcap regions. The statistical
2956 :     uncertainty is reported together with expected systematic errors.
2957 :     Two sources of systematic uncertainties are considered: the absolute
2958 :     difference with respect to the value measured in a Monte Carlo
2959 :     truth-based analysis and the background constribution, evaluated by
2960 :     comparing the efficiency calculated with Tag and Probe method using
2961 :     only the signal sample and using a cross-section weighted sum of all
2962 :     processes. Both systematics are less than 0.5\%. A greater
2963 :     background contribution is observed when using ID-Probe,
2964 : bigliett 1.1 since the isolation is based only on Inner Detector quantities.

3063 :     This Section addresses these questions, evaluates the trigger

3065 :     trigger strategy for the earliest data taking periods. It is
3066 :     expected that during both low and high luminosity periods there will

3071 :     \subsection{Efficiency estimate}
3072 :    
3073 :     The muon trigger efficiency is estimated using several methods.
3074 :     The first method is to rely on simulation;
3075 :     %as part of the standard
3076 : bigliett 1.1 %ATLAS reconstruction software from a full GEANT detector simulation and an emulation/simulation of the ATLAS muon trigger. W
3077 :     while this is the simplest and

3079 :     %relies completely on simulation techniques which are
3080 : bigliett 1.1 is believed to be somewhat more optimistic (better resolution, higher efficiency).
3081 : bigliett 1.2 %than results from real data from previous experiments at the Tevatron and before.
3082 :     Therefore, the trigger efficiency is also estimated using methods
3083 :     which can be applied to real data.
3084 :    
3085 :     The trigger efficiencies are calculated with respect to the offline
3086 :     event selection. Two combined muons are required to satisfy the
3087 :     cuts: $|\eta|~<~2.7$, $\pt~>~30$ GeV, track fit $\frac{
3088 :     \chi^{2}}{\rm{D.O.F}}~< 10$ and Inner Detector and Muon Spectrometer
3089 :     track match $\frac{\chi^{2}}{\rm{D.O.F}}~<10$.

3091 :     %\item $|\eta|~<~2.7$
3092 :     %\item $\pt~>~30$ GeV

3094 :     %\item Inner Detector and Muon Spectrometer track match $\frac{\chi^{2}}{\rm{D.O.F}}~<10$
3095 :     %\end{itemize}

3117 :     %There are several features of the efficiency distributions. First, notice the that the efficiency is lower in the barrel region than in the end-cap. This
3118 :     %is due to the incomplete trigger coverage in the barrel with respect to the precision chambers. The presence of support structures and services lead to
3119 :     %incomplete geometric acceptance of the detector. As discussed in ~\cite{muon}, the algorithmic efficiency is about 99\% for muons within the trigger
3120 :     %acceptance. Secondly note the two dips in the efficiency as a function of phi. This is caused by the presence of the 'feet' support structure which
3121 :     %leads to incomplete trigger coverage. Finally, note that the trigger chambers cover the region of $|\eta|~<~2.4$ while the CSC (cathode strip

3188 :     There are several methods to evaluate the trigger efficiency from the data itself.
3189 : bigliett 1.1 A possible one is to look at the trigger efficiency
3190 :     for a known experimentally clean signature that is similar to the final state of interest;
3191 : bigliett 1.2 \Zmumu
3192 :     %$Z \rightarrow \mu \mu$
3193 :     is one of such signatures.
3194 :     %In this case the only natural choice is to examine the
3195 :     %trigger efficiency of the $Z \rightarrow \mu \mu$ final state. Here one can obtain a very clean signature which is very similar to the hypothetical
3196 :     %heavy resonance (the difference being the mass of the resonance).
3197 :     Since the Z is light compared to the total center of mass energy, it can
3198 :     be produced with a significant $p_{T}$ distribution.
3199 :     The trigger efficiency on the Z can be measured and
3200 :     extrapolated to high $\pt$.
3201 : bigliett 1.1 The advantage of this method is that it uses data to measure the trigger efficiency which is the
3202 : bigliett 1.2 most accurate method of measuring the Z trigger efficiency.
3203 :     %However, the method does come with caveats.
3204 :     A disadvantage is that the muon trigger efficiency
3205 :     is being extrapolated to a $\pt$ by a factor of 10 higher than the mean $\pt$ of the muons from the Z decay.
3206 :     %It is hoped that by checking the efficiency in several different methods the most accurate estimate can be achieved.
3207 : bigliett 1.1
3208 :     The strategy of evaluating the trigger eciency from data is as follows.
3209 : bigliett 1.2 It is first necessary use one of several methods to estimate the muon
3210 :     trigger efficiency as a function of the muon $p_{T}$ and its uncertainty.
3211 : bigliett 1.1 The single object trigger efficiency allow the construction of
3212 : bigliett 1.2 the probability for an event with N objects to pass the trigger.
3213 : bigliett 1.1 This probability can be written as:
3214 : bigliett 1.2 \begin{equation}
3215 :     P = 1 - \prod_{i=1}^{N} (1 - P_{i})
3216 :     \label{eqn:event_prob}
3217 :     \end{equation}
3218 : bigliett 1.1 \noindent
3219 : bigliett 1.2 where $P_{i}$ is the probability for the $i$-th object to pass the trigger.
3220 :    
3221 :     Two common methods that have been used extensively at the Tevatron
3222 :     are the selection by orthogonal triggers and the 'Tag and Probe'
3223 :     method using Z $\rightarrow~\mu\mu$ decay.

3292 :     A second possible method of evaluating the trigger efficiency with
3293 :     data is by the method of orthogonal triggers. To obtain a sample of
3294 :     unbiased events we select events that pass one of the calorimeter

3296 :     offline analysis and require that we have a dimuon pair using
3297 :     identical event selection to the 'Tag and Probe' analysis. From this
3298 :     sample we simply check the fraction of events that pass the L1, L2,
3299 :     and EF trigger conditions for the 20 GeV muon trigger. The results
3300 :     are shown in Table~\ref{table:mu_jetTrig} and are in good agreement
3301 :     with the 'Tag and Probe' method and direct emulation of the trigger
3302 :     on the Monte Carlo sample. Unfortunately, in the real experiment a
3303 :     single jet trigger with a threshold of 20 GeV would be very highly
3304 :     prescaled and hence will suffer from poor statistics. One in
3305 :     principle could use events that passed any calorimeter trigger for
3306 :     this study, however, then one must be careful to account for these
3307 :     biases in the event topology. Such a study is beyond the scope of
3308 :     this note.

3310 :     We have developed two methods that could be used to evaluate the
3311 :     trigger efficiency from data. Extraction of the muon trigger
3312 :     efficiency as a function of the reconstructed muon kinematics via a
3313 :     tag and probe method and an orthogonal trigger method agree well
3314 :     with the simulated trigger efficiency. These methods will allow us
3315 :     to more accurately estimate the trigger efficiency for LHC data.

3342 :     \section{Summary}
3343 :    
3344 :     In this paper Muon trigger baseline performance and rates for initial and standard LHC operation
3345 :     have been presented.
3346 :     Trigger efficiency has been studied in detail in a wide energy range using single muon simulated samples.
3347 :     From efficiencies the muon rates have been evaluated.
3348 :     It should be noted that due to the uncertainties of the inclusive muons cross-sections,
3349 :     rates could vary significantly and different threshold cuts could be adopted.
3350 :     A further rate reduction should come from dedicated strategies to reject muon from in-flight decays of $K$ and $\pi$;
3351 :     in this paper a preliminary analysis is presented at Event Filter.
3352 :     It is demonstrated that a good rejection can be achieved with contained losses of prompt muons.
3353 :    
3354 :     The possibility to select at the ATLAS second level trigger with high efficiency isolated muons from $W$ and $Z$ decays
3355 :     reducing the ones from heavy quark decays has been studied in depth. Although electronic readout
3356 :     and pileup noise have been simulated, no cavern background has been yet included.
3357 :     A factor ten reduction on high $p_T$ muons from heavy-quark decays has been obtained
3358 :     while maintaining a $95\%$ efficiency
3359 :     on $Z\to\mu^+\mu^-$ final state.
3360 :     Next step will be to investigate how much the use of the
3361 :     longitudinal granularity of the calorimeters and inner tracker detector will increase the muon isolation rejection power.
3362 :    
3363 :     The overall performance of the TileCal muon tagging algorithm has been presented,
3364 :     using MC samples of single muons and inclusive B-Physics processes, including minimum-bias pileup at low luminosity.
3365 :    
3366 :     We finally addressed the question of how the muon trigger efficiency efficiency can be measured with
3367 :     \Zmumu
3368 :     %$Z \rightarrow \mu\mu$
3369 :     and $Z^\prime \rightarrow \mu\mu$ using the tag and probe method. This technique shows
3370 :     a very good agreement with results based on Monte Carlo studies.
