Title: Once in a Lifetime: Investigating Z -> tau tau -> e mu + neutrinos at DØ

Speaker: Dr Simon Dean (University College, London)

Abstract

The sum of signed impact parameters in a two-track system is proposed as a tool for discriminating channels with lifetime in the final state. Z -> tau tau -> e mu is shown to be a realistic process for demonstrating this effect and a signal sample is selected from the D0 RunII dataset.

This Particle Physics Seminar will take place in Seminar Room 2 (room 106), Physics West, at 1315. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be served at 1300.
