Description

Simulated dataset VBF_HToTauTau_M-125_8TeV-powheg-pythia6-tauola-tauPolarOff in AODSIM format for 2012 collision data.

See the description of the simulated dataset names in: About CMS simulated dataset names.

These simulated datasets correspond to the collision data collected by the CMS experiment in 2012.

Dataset characteristics

491653 events. 54 files. 149.2 GiB in total.

How were these data generated?

These data were generated in several steps (see also CMS Monte Carlo production overview):

Step LHE
Release: CMSSW_5_3_11_patch6
Configuration file for LHE (link)
Output dataset: /VBF_HToTauTau_M-125_8TeV-powheg-pythia6-tauola-tauPolarOff/Summer12-START53_V7C-v1/GEN
Note: To get the exact generator parameters, please see Finding the generator parameters.


Step SIM

Configuration file for SIM (link)
Output dataset: /VBF_HToTauTau_M-125_8TeV-powheg-pythia6-tauola-tauPolarOff/Summer12-START53_V7C-v1/GEN-SIM


Step HLT RECO
Release: CMSSW_5_3_17
Global Tag: START53_V19::All
Generators: powheg pythia6
Production script (preview)
Hadronizer parameters (link)
Configuration file for HLT (link)
Configuration file for RECO (link)
Output dataset: /VBF_HToTauTau_M-125_8TeV-powheg-pythia6-tauola-tauPolarOff/Summer12_DR53X-PU_S10_START53_V19-v1/AODSIM


To make these simulated data comparable with the collision data, pile-up events are added to the simulated event in this step.

The pile-up dataset is:

/MinBias_TuneZ2star_8TeV-pythia6/Summer12-START50_V13-v3/GEN-SIM

How were these data validated?

The generation and simulation of simulated Monte Carlo data has been validated through general CMS validation procedures.

How can you use these data?

You can access these data through the CMS Virtual Machine. See the instructions for setting up the Virtual Machine and getting started in
