Zusammenfassung:The CMS experiment has recorded a high-purity sample of 10 billion unbiased b hadron decays. The CMS trigger and data acquisition systems were configured to deliver a custom data stream at an average throughput of 2 GB s −1 , which was “parked” prior to reconstruction. The data stream was defined by level-1 and high level trigger algorithms that operated at peak trigger rates in excess of 50 and 5 kHz, respectively. New algorithms have been developed to reconstruct and identify electrons with high efficiency at transverse momenta as low as 0.5 GeV. The trigger strategy and electron reconstruction performance were validated with pilot processing campaigns. The accumulation and reconstruction of this data set, now complete, were delivered without significant impact on the core physics programme of CMS. This unprecedented sample provides a unique opportunity for physics analyses in the flavour sector and beyond.
