Level-1 tau trigger efficiency as a function of the offline tau calorimetric transverse energy for taus in the barrel (black), pseudorapidity region [-1.5,1.5], and in the endcaps (red), pseudorapidity region [1.5,2.3] v [-1.5,-2.3], for a level-1 transverse energy threshold of 30 GeV. The stage-2 level-1 trigger upgrade tau reconstruction algorithm performs first a dynamic clustering at the trigger tower level. To deal with spread energy deposits arising from 1-prong+pi0 or 3-prongs decays of the tau, a merging procedure of individual clusters is applied. The energy of the tau candidate results from a weighted sum of the ECAL and HCAL energies of the cluster, where the weights are energy and eta-dependent and have been determined as to match the visible energy of the tau. An integrated luminosity of 7.3fb-1 from 2012 Run D 8TeV data is used. The sample of hadronically decaying taus used in this plot is constituted applying a Z->tautau->mu-tau tag-and-probe selection, requiring a well-identified tag tau decaying into muon and a probe tau decaying hadronically, as well as opposite charges and finally a [42.5GeV,72.5GeV] mass window requirement. |

Level-1 tau background rejection versus Level-1 tau signal efficiency evaluated for different values of the Level-1 transverse energy thresholds for taus in the [-2.3, 2.3] pseudorapity region (barrel+endcap). The stage-2 upgrade algorithm (dashed-blue) is compared to the Run 1 algorithm (red) and two particular working points are shown in the curves for both algorithm: Level-1 transverse energy above 20 GeV (black dot) and above 30 GeV (white circle).

Level-1 transverse energy distribution in the isolation region (Iso ET) for stage-2 upgrade tau trigger for signal events (blue) and background (green).

Both for the signal and background samples, a minimum L1 transverse energy of 20 GeV is required. The distributions for both signal and background are normalised to unity andand their different trends can be observed. |

Level-1 tau background reduction for L1 Et thresholds above 20 GeV. Triggered events in a 8TeV Minimum-bias with Level-1 muon with pT>12 GeV sample from 2012 data taking have been used. The background reduction obtained with the stage-2 upgrade non-isolated trigger (black-dashed) are compared with those obtained with the Run 1 algorithm (red) and with the stage-2 upgrade isolated (blue). The isolation threshold used (<=1 GeV) is the one that allow an efficiency for the stage-2 upgrade algorithm comparable to the one of the Run 1 algorithm, and it is reported on the previous plot. From a series of turn-on curves as function of the offline pT made with various L1 thresholds, a correspondence between the L1 threshold and the offline pT yielding a 50% L1 trigger efficiency is obtained. The background reduction for various L1 ET thresholds above 20 GeV is represented on the vertical axis. The 50% efficiency offline pT for the chosen L1 ET threshold is shown on the x-axis. |
