Run 11 W A_L pp500

Request TypeSimulated background embedding (generator with real data as background for noise / pile-up studies)
DescriptionThis request will be used to estimate reconstruction efficiencies and background yields from electroweak processes for the Run 11 W analyses.  MC events from Pythia will be embedding in zerobias data from Run 11. 

Target lumi = 100 pb-1 (roughly 10x Run 11 integrated luminosity)

Channels:
11K  :  W+ ->e+neutrino
11K  :  W+ -> tau+neutrino
3.5K    :  W- -> e+neutrino
3.5K    :  W- -> tau+neutrino
2.5K    :  Z/gamma*-> e+ e-

Embedding into events from zerobia files and sampled proportionally to lumi
