Description

This dataset provides a ROOT file with three trees each with branches of TClonesArray of TLorentzVectors (energies in MeV), describing all the jets in each event. The three trees are - QCD multijet background generated with p p > j j - Vector boson fusion Higgs production, with the Higgs decaying to neutrinos (invisible to the detector) - Vector boson fusion Higgs production, with the Higgs decaying to two pseudoscalar a bosons, each decaying to a b/anti-b pair All events were produced with Madgraph, decayed with Pythia8, and showered with Delphes. Jets were produced with a minimum pT of at least 15 GeV. The anti-kt algorithm with a radius parameter of R=0.4 and a minimum jet threshold of pT = 20 GeV was used for jet reconstruction in Delphes. Pseudorapidity/phi coordinates were used with eta between -4.9 --> 4.9 and phi between -pi --> pi. Minimum bias pileup with <mu> = 50 was applied using the CMS with pileup card in Delphes. The Higgs was given a mass of 125 GeV and the pseudoscalar a boson was given a mass of 50 GeV. Data was used in https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.03408 to identify VBF-produced jets. That paper contains descriptions of how the data was produced along with a description of how it was used in VBF jet identification.
