singletop~|Vtb|2Top-polarization study and V-A structure of EW top interaction
Background study for SM Higgs searchExactly the same final state as WH->WbbBackground of all channels to use W+njet background
Probe b-quark PDF (t-channel)Non-SM phenomena
Heavy W’ bosonAnomalous W-t-b coupling ……
But…Cross section is small (~40% of tt)Larger background cause of W+2jets bin
Not established a significant evidence yet …

Projections for Single Top Sensitivity
W+nP Background n=2,3W+2P
W+3P
Statistics of the background is small…But we confirmed ~10 times rejection power

Jet multiplicity distribution of b-tag performanceSecVtx JetProb
Cross checkJet multiplicity distribution after b tag (CDF 7863)
19.2% 64.7% 13.6% 2.1% 0.3%
Good agreement !?
Use Jprob<0.05 cuts for Jet Prob.
About 68 % statistics of the 2 tag events is increased to use S+J tagging We can use 30% of tight jets to combine s+s & s+j tagging >>> about half of at least 1 secvtx tag

Summery and PlanDouble tag included s+j tagging has potential to improve s/n ratio and significance.
statistics of the signal is increased 1.68 x s-s tag We can use 30% of tight jets to combined s-s s-j tag About 10 times rejection power is estimated with W+nP sample.
Detail of signal selection will have to be confirmed. We will apply this double-tag method to other “non-b” background like 3jets . We will estimate signal significance and discovery potential as the function of luminosity……
Because of just started , we have many “TO DO”……
