QCD |
W+jets electron channel |
Data-driven cut reversal, ML fit |
Use photon selection or reversed IsEM bits to select a QCD-only sample. From this sample, build a template in Missing Et or similar variable and fit for the QCD/W+jets signal. This method has the potential to expand to include other backgrounds, like top |

Data-driven; ABCD or fit |
Look at b-tagging, MET, isolation, deltaPhi(elec-MET) |

QCD |
W+jets electron channel |
ABCD or Matrix method |
Rejection of EtMiss and/or MT cut is measured for loose isEM (with medium veto) and assumed to hold for medium or tight isEM as well |
with 10 nb-1 ~50% statistical error for W+1jet |
Limited MC statistics (JF17), correlation between isEM and MissEt if using calibrated MissET |
~30% |
