Popis: This technical memo note describes the procedures used by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron p¯ p Collider to determine the identification and reconstruction efficiencies for specific muon selection criteria for both data and Monte Carlo simulation. Dedicated corrections for the muons satisfying these criteria are derived, thus certifying them to be used in physics analyses at D0. The results of the efficiencies of certified muons are presented for a sub-sample of 4.2 fb 1 collected by the D0 experiment. The experimental techniques and procedures employed here are identical to those used for the full 9.7 fb 1 dataset.
