82 CHAPTER 5: Estimat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Jet</strong> <strong>Energy</strong> <strong>Scale</strong> Calibration Factorprotons can not be known. However, <strong>the</strong> usage <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> k<strong>in</strong>ematic fit method is still feasibleby apply<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> mass constra<strong>in</strong>ts <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> specific event topologies. For example, <strong>in</strong><strong>the</strong> processes where a W boson is produced and subsequently decays to a pair <strong>of</strong> quarksW → q¯q, apply<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> mass constra<strong>in</strong>t <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> W boson and forc<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> four-momenta<strong>of</strong> its decay products to fulfill <strong>the</strong> mass equation, be<strong>in</strong>gm 2 W = (E jet 1+ E jet2 ) 2 − ( ⃗ P jet1 + ⃗ P jet2 ) 2 ,would improve significantly <strong>the</strong> resolution on <strong>the</strong> reconstructed jets. In <strong>the</strong> currentstudy, <strong>the</strong> mass constra<strong>in</strong>ts <strong>of</strong> both <strong>the</strong> W boson and top quark are applied <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>hadronic branch <strong>of</strong> e+jets t¯t system, namely t → Wb → q¯qb. The reconstructedobjects <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> f<strong>in</strong>al state, be<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> light jets arris<strong>in</strong>g from <strong>the</strong> W boson decay and <strong>the</strong>b quark jet arris<strong>in</strong>g from <strong>the</strong> top quark decay, are asked to fulfill <strong>the</strong> mass constra<strong>in</strong>tswhich are expressed asm 2 W = (E l 1+ E l2 ) 2 − ( ⃗ P l1 + ⃗ P l2 ) 2 ,m 2 top = (E l 1+ E l2 + E b ) 2 − ( ⃗ P l1 + ⃗ P l2 + ⃗ P b ) 2 ,where <strong>in</strong>dex l i refers to one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> two light jets orig<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g from light quarks, namelyup, down, charm and strange. Also <strong>in</strong>dex b <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> above formula, refers to <strong>the</strong> b jetarris<strong>in</strong>g from <strong>the</strong> heavy quark, namely <strong>the</strong> bottom quark.The k<strong>in</strong>ematic fit results are used to estimate <strong>the</strong> residual jet energy correction factorsfor both light as well as b quark jets as will be described <strong>in</strong> detail <strong>in</strong> Section 5.4. Thema<strong>the</strong>matical concept <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> k<strong>in</strong>ematic fit technique is reviewed <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> next section.5.2.1 General Ma<strong>the</strong>matical ConceptA physics problem consists <strong>of</strong> measured quantities, ⃗y = (y 1 , y 2 , . . .,y n ), and unmeasuredvalues, ⃗a = (a 1 , a 2 , . . .,a p ). Also a certa<strong>in</strong> hypo<strong>the</strong>sis orig<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g from <strong>the</strong> physics pr<strong>in</strong>cipalsuch as conservation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> energy and momentum may be <strong>in</strong>troduced. Therefore<strong>the</strong> observed events, conta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g n measured and p unmeasured values, are constra<strong>in</strong>edto fulfill <strong>the</strong> hypo<strong>the</strong>sis. Due to <strong>the</strong> presence <strong>of</strong> uncerta<strong>in</strong>ties on <strong>the</strong> measured values,usually <strong>the</strong> hypo<strong>the</strong>sis is not respected <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> physics problem which is under consideration.The hypo<strong>the</strong>sis, which is expressed via constra<strong>in</strong>t equations ⃗ f = (f 1 , f 2 , . . .,f m ),is satisfied for only <strong>the</strong> true parameters, namely ȳ and ā as written below.f 1 (ā 1 , ā 2 , . . .,ā p , ȳ 1 , ȳ 2 , . . ., ȳ n ) = 0,f 2 (ā 1 , ā 2 , . . .,ā p , ȳ 1 , ȳ 2 , . . ., ȳ n ) = 0,.f m (ā 1 , ā 2 , . . .,ā p , ȳ 1 , ȳ 2 , . . .,ȳ n ) = 0.In order to obta<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> correction to <strong>the</strong> measured values, ∆⃗y, which yields <strong>the</strong> constra<strong>in</strong>tsto be fulfilled for <strong>the</strong> corrected measurements, <strong>the</strong> extrema <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> above equationsshould be found. Hence <strong>the</strong> Lagrange Multipliers method is used to determ<strong>in</strong>e<strong>the</strong> true values, ⃗y ′ = ⃗y + ∆⃗y, for which <strong>the</strong> constra<strong>in</strong>ts are fulfilled.
