Abstract

In December 2009 proton-proton collisions at the LHC were recorded with the CMS detector for the first time. The collisions happened at a center-of-mass energy of \(\sqrt{s}=900\) GeV and \(\sqrt{s}=2.36\) TeV. The data collected during the first LHC running period were used in this work to study the performance of the physics object reconstruction and to compare it to the results of the MC simulation.
