This paper analyzes in detail how to estimate, from the fraction of events that pass a cut, the fraction of signal events present in the sample, taking into account the cut efficiencies (with their uncertainties) for the signal an background detection.

Abstract

This paper analyzes in detail how to estimate, from the fraction of events that pass a cut, the fraction of signal events present in the sample, taking into account the cut efficiencies (with their uncertainties) for the signal an background detection.
