Abstract

This analysis focuses on genera ng a histogram which records the rate of acceptance as a function of invariant mass. This entails developing two distinct histograms: one which records the total number of generated events within certain invariant mass ranges and a second which only counts events which successfully reconstruct two leptons of transverse momentum at least 50 GeV. The final histogram is calculated by dividing the bins of the second histogram by those of the first.
