 A new framework, called \textsc{Delphes}~\cite{bib:Delphes}, is introduced here, for the fast simulation of a general purpose collider experiment. 
 Using the framework, observables can be estimated for specific signal and background channels, as well as their production and measurement rates, under a set of assumptions. 
-Starting from the output of event generators, the simulation of the detector response takes into account the subdetector resolutions, by smearing the kinematical properties of the visible final particles. Tracks of charged particles and calorimetric towers are then created.
+Starting from the output of event generators, the simulation of the detector response takes into account the subdetector resolutions, by smearing the kinematical properties of the visible final particles. Tracks of charged particles and calorimetric towers (or \textit{calotowers} are then created.
 
 \textsc{Delphes} includes the most crucial experimental features, like (1) the geometry of both central or forward detectors; (2) lepton isolation; (3) reconstruction of photons, leptons, jets, $b$-jets, $\tau$-jets and missing transverse energy; (4) trigger emulation and (5) an event display (Fig.~\ref{fig:FlowChart}).

Detector geometry is idealised, being uniform, symmetric around the beam axis, and having no cracks nor dead material. Secondary interactions, multiple scatterings, photon conversion and bremsstrahlung are also neglected.

 A central tracking system (\textsc{tracker}) is surrounded by an electromagnetic and a hadron calorimeters (\textsc{ecal} and \textsc{hcal}, resp.). Two forward calorimeters (\textsc{fcal}) ensure a larger geometric coverage for the measurement of the missing transverse energy. Finally, a muon system (\textsc{muon}) encloses the central detector volume
 The fast simulation of the detector response takes into account geometrical acceptance of sub-detectors and their finite resolution, as defined in the smearing data card\footnote{\texttt{[code] }See the \texttt{RESOLution} class.}. 
 If no such file is provided, predifined values are used. The coverage of the various subsystems used in the default configuration are summarised in table \ref{tab:defEta}.

 \subsection{Transverse missing energy}
-In an ideal detector, the transverse missing energy is simply computed as the missing term which would balance the transverse momentum in the observed event. Its value is then computed as the opposite of the sum of the momentum of all observed particles. In a real experiment, any problem affecting the detector (dead channels, misalignment, noisy towers, cracks) is directly worsening the measured missing transverse energy. In this document, the missing transverse energy (\textcolor{red}{symbol???}) is based on the calorimetric towers and only muons and neutrinos are not taken into account for its evaluation.

 \section{Validation}	
 
+\subsection{Jet resolution}
+ 
+The majority of interesting processes at the \textsc{lhc} contain jets in the final state. The jet resolution obtained using \textsc{Delphes} is therefore a crucial point of the validation. While \textsc{Delphes} contains six jet reconstruction algorithms, only the jet clustering algorithm with $R=0.7$ is used to validate the jet collection. Cross-check has been made with the results obtained using the \textsc{cms} detector. This validation employs $pp \rightarrow gg$ events produced using \textsc{mg/me} and hadronized using \textsc{pythia}. The events were divided into 14 bins of $\hat{p_T}$ of the gluons. Each \textsc{Delphes} jet is matched to the closest {\it particle-level} jet using the spatial separation in $\eta - \phi$ between the two jet axis $\Delta R<0.25$, otherwise they are discarded. The particle-level jets are obtained by applying the same clustering algorithm to all particles considered as stable by \textsc{pythia}.
+ 
+For each $\hat{p}_T$ bin, the  \textsc{Delphes} jet transverse energy ($E_T^{rec}$) of all jets satisfying the matching criteria is compaired to the {\it particle level} transverse energy ($E_T^{MC}$). The obtained histograms of the $E_T^{rec}/E_T^{MC}$ response have been fitted with a Gaussian function in the interval $\pm 2.RMS$ centered around the mean value. The final jet resolution is obtained using the following formula:
+ 
+\begin{equation}
+\frac{\sigma(R_{jet})}{<R_{jet}>}=\frac{\sigma(\frac{E_T^{rec}}{E_T^{MC}})_{fit}}{<\frac{E_T^{rec}}{E_T^{MC}}>_{fit}}.
+\end{equation}
+ 
+\begin{figure}[!h]
+\begin{center}
+\includegraphics[width=\columnwidth]{resolutionJet}
+\caption{Distribution of the jet transverse energy resolution as a function of the {\it particle-level}  jet transverse energy. The maximum allowed separation between the \textsc{Delphes} and the {\it partile-level} jets is $\Delta R<0.25$.}
+\label{fig:jetresol}
+\end{center}
+\end{figure}
+ 
+The resulting jet resolution, plotted as a function of $E_T^{GEN}$ is shown in figure \ref{fig:jetresol}. The plots were then fitted with a function of the following form:
+ 
+\begin{equation}
+\frac{a}{E_T^{GEN}}\oplus \frac{b}{\sqrt{E_T^{GEN}}}\oplus c,
+\end{equation}
+ 
+where a, b, and c are the fit parameters. The obtained resolution is compared to the one obtained with a recent version of the simulation package of the CMS detector. Overall, the resolution curve of \textsc{Delphes} matches relatively well to those of \textsc{cms}.
+ 
+\subsection{$E_T^{mis}$ resolution}
+ 
+Because all major detectors at hadron colliders have been designed to be as mutch hermetic as possible in order to detect the presence of one or more neutrinos through apparent missing transverse energy, the resolution of the $E_T^{miss}$ obtained with \textsc{Delphes} is a crucial point. The samples used to study the transverse missing energy performance are identical to those used for the jet validation. The {\it particle-level} true transverse missing energy is calculated as the vector sum of the transverse momenta of all visible particles (or equivalently, to the vector sum of invisible particles). It should be noticed that the contribution to the transverse missing energy from muons is negligeable in the sample we are interested in.
+ 
+In order to obtain the x-component missing energy resolution ($E_x^{miss}$), the distribution of the difference between the \textsc{Delphes} and the {\it particle-level} $E_x^{miss}$ has been fitted with a Gaussian function. The resulting $E_x^{mis}$ is plotted in figure \ref{fig:resolETmis} as a function of the total visible transverse energy, defined as the scalar sum of transverse energy in all towers ($\Sigma E_T$).
+ 
+\begin{figure}[!h]
+\begin{center}

+\caption{$\sigma(E^{miss}_{x})$ as a function on the scalar sum of all towers ($\Sigma E_T$) for $pp \rightarrow gg$ events.}
+\label{fig:resolETmis}
+\end{center}
+\end{figure}
+ 
+The resolution is observed to follow the form
+\begin{equation}
+\sigma_X = \alpha ~\Sigma E_T ~\mathrm{GeV}^{1/2},
+\end{equation}
+whith $\alpha$ is depending on the resolution of the calorimeters. Knowing that the expected transverse missing energy resolution expected using the \textsc{cms} detector for similar events is $\sigma_X = (0.6-0.7) ~ \Sigma E_T ~ \mathrm{GeV}^{1/2}$ with no pile-up (no extra simultaneous $pp$ collision occuring at the same bunch crossing), we can conclude that the resolution obtained by \textsc{Delphes} ( $\sigma_X = 0.68~ \Sigma E_T ~\mathrm{GeV}^{1/2}$) is in excellent agreement with the expectations of a general purpose detector.
