Description

In this note, the pile-up influence on the energy resolution of the ATLAS LAr EMCal expected until the end of run 2 is explored, with the supercluster algorithm. The pile-up noise is extracted for various η-regions and electron energies, and found to match the expected behavior. An attempt is then made at improving the energy resolution using the ambient energy density and pileup tracks using two methods for finding correlations. The corrections yield no significant improvement to the energy resolution due to small correlations.
