Performance of missing transverse momentum reconstruction in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV using the CMS detector
The performance of missing transverse momentum ($${\vec p}_{\mathrm{T}}^\mathrm{miss}$$) reconstruction algorithms for the CMS experiment is presented, using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected at the CERN LHC in 2016. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$$^{-1}$$. The results include measurements of the scale and resolution of $${\vec p}_{\mathrm{T}}^\mathrm{miss}$$, and detailed studies of events identified with anomalous $${\vec p}_{\mathrm{T}}^\mathrm{miss}$$. The performance is presented of a $${\vec p}_{\mathrm{T}}^\mathrm{miss}$$ reconstruction algorithm that mitigates the effects of multiple proton-proton interactions, using the "pileup per particle identification" method. The performance is shown of an algorithm used to estimate the compatibility of the reconstructed $${\vec p}_{\mathrm{T}}^\mathrm{miss}$$ with the hypothesis that it originates from resolution effects.
