30. Depending on the energy resolution of the calorimeters, this can be increased up to 10 GeV without affecting the results significantly. This observation is important, in particular, for the high luminosity run of LHC where the calorimetric energy resolution is likely to get degraded by the pileup.
31. Such an isolation cut was considered in the context of SSC byR.M. Barnett, R. Cruz, J.F. Gunion and B. Hubbard, Phys. Rev. D 47, 1048 (1993).
32. However, these authors considered only the pion contribution to the τ jet. It is clear from our Fig. 1, that the isolation cut would retain the (formula presented), which is comparable to the pion contribution.
