Performance of missing transverse momentum reconstruction in proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV using the CMS detector
Abstract
The performance of missing transverse momentum (vec pTmiss) reconstruction algorithms for the CMS experiment is presented, using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected at the CERN LHC in 2016. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb-1. The results include measurements of the scale and resolution of vec pTmiss, and detailed studies of events identified with anomalous vec pTmiss. The performance is presented of a vec pTmiss reconstruction algorithm that mitigates the effects of multiple proton-proton interactions, using the "pileup per particle identification" method. The performance is shown of an algorithm used to estimate the compatibility of the reconstructed vec pTmiss with the hypothesis that it originates from resolution effects. Show more
