physics benefit studies: ------------------------ * General performance of SVT (efficiency, momentum resolution, impact parameter resolution, trigger turn-on in pt, ....) (Terry Heuring, Dan Karmgard, Horst Wahl) * B to J/Psi (Phil Gutierrez) * other B decays (Andrzej Zieminski + B physics group) * single top (Terry Heuring) * t tbar (Frederic Stichelbaut) * Higgs + W/Z (John Hobbs) * SUSY to bbbb (Doug Norman) * Z to b bbar (Meenakshi Narain) * low pt lepton triggering (Armand Zylberstejn) * improvement in Et and missing Et resolution at L2 or L3 due to knowledge of z (John Hobbs, Meena, ???)) physics studies should include the following: ---------------------------------------------- - definition of L1 trigger ) } from standard strawman trigger menu - definition of L2 trigger ) - expected L1 and L2 rates for these triggers - improvement in S/N and/or L2 trigger rate from use of additional handles: - L2 CFT tracking - L2 global: matching of CFT with cal, mu,... information - improvement in S/N and/or L2 trigger rate from use of L2 SVX information: - momentum measured in SVX - impact parameter - consequences of SVT related improvement on physics: - better sensitivity, discovery potential - better precision
