Depend<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> position <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reconstructed electron, a barrelelectron is asked to have a ∆η <strong>in</strong> less than 0.004 while for <strong>the</strong> endcap electronthis value is set to be 0.005.– ∆φ <strong>in</strong> which is def<strong>in</strong>ed as <strong>the</strong> φ difference between <strong>the</strong> supercluster and <strong>the</strong>correspond<strong>in</strong>g track extrapolated to <strong>the</strong> ECAL start<strong>in</strong>g from <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>teractionvertex. Depend<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> position <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reconstructed electron, a barrelelectron is asked to have a ∆φ <strong>in</strong> less than 0.03 while for <strong>the</strong> endcap electronthis value is set to be 0.02.– σ iηiη is a measure <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> shower width <strong>in</strong> a direction which is very largelyunaffected by shower<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> electrons <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> tracker material and so has beena key variable <strong>in</strong> electron identification. Depend<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> position <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>reconstructed electron, a barrel electron is asked to have a σ iηiη less than0.01 while for <strong>the</strong> endcap electron this value is set to be 0.03.• F<strong>in</strong>ally, <strong>the</strong> selected electron is required to have d 0 < 0.02 cm where d 0 is def<strong>in</strong>edas <strong>the</strong> distance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reconstructed track <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> electron <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> transverse pla<strong>in</strong>with respect to <strong>the</strong> beam spot. This variable is useful <strong>in</strong> differentiat<strong>in</strong>g betweenprompt electrons and those which are produced <strong>in</strong> jets. The electrons appear<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong> jets usually have larger d 0 values. Hence cutt<strong>in</strong>g on this variable would rejectmost <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> QCD events.A summary <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> cut values applied on <strong>the</strong> various identification variables <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>selected electron is given <strong>in</strong> Table 4.4.
