Event selection
- We reconstruct the final state in the semileptonic decay of the
top-quark pair
- The high mass assumption of the \(Z'\) resonance leads to boosted final
states
- We can make use of specific reconstruction algorithms to identify
these final states
- Awkward arrays allow for a simplified syntax when making cuts to
select the data
- You need to be careful to distinguish between cuts on events and
cuts on particles
- It it up to you how you want to save your reduced data and how to
keep track of everything
- There are many options, but think about how you might scale things
up
