Vertex Detection for a Charm Tag in e+e- -> W+W- at a High Energy Electron-Positron Linear Collider
Wolfgang Walkowiak
Abstract
The study of the process e+e- W+W- at Linear Collider energies presents a good opportunity to investigate anomalous triple gauge boson couplings and W+LW-L rescattering. The helicity analysis of the e+e- W+LW-L decays will benefit if the charm quark containing jet can be identified for events which contain one hadronic W boson decay to a charm and another quark. A JAVA implementation of the SLD collaboration's topological vertex finding algorithm (ZVTOP) in the linear collider analysis framework has been used to extract charm tag efficiencies and purities based on vertex multiplicities.
