The ττ background estimation with the τ-embedding method of CMS — •Christian Winter, Sebastian Brommer, Artur Gottmann, Roger Wolf, and Günter Quast — ETP, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany

In H→ ττ analyses a major source of background are genuine tau leptons, mostly originating from Z→ ττ decays. The τ-embedding method is a method to estimate this background from data, by replacing muons in a selected-event in data with simulated τ-decays. This talk will explain this method and gives an outlook of how this method will be improved further.
