[Rivet] normalisation to cross-sectionsHendrik Hoeth hendrik.hoeth at cern.chFri Oct 23 09:41:35 BST 2009
Thus spake Jonathan Butterworth (jmb at hep.ucl.ac.uk): > now you worried me. > > I was part of the long thread and I (thought I had) understood that > event shape variables etc would *not* be normalised to cross section. > They would have a Norm=xx.x which would mean they don't get scaled > further. And they don't need the cross section info to get given Norm=1.0 As I said: I haven't read the long thread in detail yet (shame on me), but that's what I saw in the last Rivet commit. So I'm not sure what our plan is at the moment, but I do have objections against "normalising" event shapes. Probably I missed something.
