[Rivet] Unvalidated analyses? (esp. CDF_1994 & HERA analyses)

[Andy Buckley]

Hi guys,

There are still many analyses in the UNVALIDATED library, which were
meant to be working a long time ago, but which were found to be broken
when we ran the analyses in the run-up to the 1.2.0 release. I would
like to get these back into the main set of Rivet analyses, particularly
classic MC analyses like the CDF_1994_S2952106 colour coherence
analysis: Lars, you said you were working on this before 1.2.0... any
progress?

It would also be good to finally get the ZEUS and H1 analyses
implemented (and hopefully get more HERA analyses... I'm under the
impression that Albert Knutsson has been working on some of those). Jon,
do you have a chance yet to look at the ZEUS_2001_S4815815 analysis?

I'm sure there are more analyses which can be brought into the main
libraries, with a bit of validation work: here is a slightly reduced
list of possibles by my guess at "responsible person", extracted from
the Analyses Makefile.am:

Lars:
    CDF_1994_S2952106.cc
    CDF_2006_S6653332.cc
    D0_1996_S3214044.cc (with Frank -- needs jet alg)
    D0_1996_S3324664.cc (with Frank -- needs jet alg)

Holger
    CDF_1991_S2313472.cc
    D0_1998_S3711838.cc
    E735_1998_S3905616.cc
    SFM_1984_S1178091.cc
    UA5_1988_S1867512.cc

Frank:
    CDF_1996_S3108457.cc
    CDF_1996_S3349578.cc
    CDF_1997_S3541940.cc
    D0_1996_S3214044.cc (with Lars -- needs jet alg)
    D0_1996_S3324664.cc (with Lars -- needs jet alg)

James:
    CDF_2007_S7057202.cc

Emily:
    CDF_2008_S7541902.cc
    CDF_2008_S7782535.cc
    CDF_2008_S8095620.cc

Jon?:
    H1_1995_S3167097.cc
    ZEUS_2001_S4815815.cc

Hendrik:
    STAR_2008_S7993412.cc


Can you please let me/us know what is blocking these analyses from being
validated?

Thanks ;)
Andy
