Efficiency ( ) for each tag category in signal � � Monte Carlo, the Run 1 and Run 2 � � fit region, and the Run 1 + 2 Breco sample. The latter (highlighted) is used in the fit. 7.6 Signal characterization The tagging performance and vertex resolution of the tag side in a �� event do not depend on the decay channel of the fully reconstructed � meson. With this assumption, the tagging efficiencies, dilutions, and ¡Ø resolution function (Ê×��) for ��, Ã�, and ÃÃ decays are obtained from the high statistics sample of fully-reconstructed �’s (Breco sample). Table 7-8 compares the tagging efficiency in signal Monte Carlo, the Run 1 + 2 Breco sample, and the � � fit region. The latter is obtained by floating the signal tag fractions in a �È -blind fit 2 . No significant difference is observed between different species in signal Monte Carlo, and the on-resonance signal region gives consistent tagging efficiencies. Table 7-9 summarizes the average dilution and difference for each category as determined in the Run 1+2Breco sample. The signal ¡Ø resolution function is parameterized by the sum of three Gaussians (core, tail, outlier), where the core bias is a function of the tag category and the error on ¡Ø. Table 7-10 lists the resolution function parameters obtained from a fit to the Run 1+2Breco tagged + untagged sample. 2 We blind the �È parameters by adding a random offset between ¦� and randomly flipping the sign of the asymmetries.

The only new feature of the fitting technique relative to the branching fraction analysis is the addition of a PDF describing the time dependence in each component and tagging category. 7.7.1 Likelihood function The overall construction of the likelihood function Ä is similar to the branching fraction analysis. For this analysis, the sample consists of signal and background components for the three species (��,Ã�, and ÃÃ), separated by the flavor and category of the tag side. In addiction to the usual variables Ñ�Ë, ¡�, the Fisher discriminant � and the � ��Ö�Ò�ÓÚ angle, the ¡Ø measurement facilitates provides additional background rejection.
