Section 2: Supersymmetry 43<br />

Figure 21: detector - event z vertex plane for the second jet and 6 E T<br />

- 2nd jet plane.<br />

We use the Z resonance d<strong>at</strong>a because there is little background under the Z peak in<br />

the <strong>CDF</strong> d<strong>at</strong>a. <strong>The</strong> shape of the kinem<strong>at</strong>ic distributions (P T of the boson, jet E T , jet<br />

, 6E T , as well as other event topology rel<strong>at</strong>ed variables) in the Monte Carlo are in good<br />

agreement with the shapes observed in the d<strong>at</strong>a. To use the same normaliz<strong>at</strong>ion scheme in<br />

the W plus jets processes (i.e. using the Z d<strong>at</strong>a) we examine the r<strong>at</strong>io of the<br />

in the d<strong>at</strong>a. Figure<br />

W !e+2 jets<br />

Z!ee+2 jets<br />

22 shows the raw r<strong>at</strong>io in the d<strong>at</strong>a and the r<strong>at</strong>io after applying the<br />

Acceptance(A) efficiency() for the selection of the Zs and the Ws.<br />

Also we use lepton universality, namely the r<strong>at</strong>io of<br />

W !e+2 jets<br />

W !+2 jets<br />

to valid<strong>at</strong>e the normaliz<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

scheme in the W ! + 2 jets QCD predictions. Fig. 23 shows this r<strong>at</strong>io in the<br />

raw d<strong>at</strong>a and after the Acceptance(A) efficiency() applied.
