[Rivet] useInvisiblesDavid Grellscheid david.grellscheid at durham.ac.ukFri Jul 8 17:12:18 BST 2011
Hi everyone, It seems that at the moment, neither of the two options does what ATLAS seems to want. From the code comments: > The default behaviour is that jets are only constructed from visible > (i.e. charged under an SM gauge group) particles. Some jet studies, > including those from ATLAS, use a definition in which neutrinos from hadron > decays are included (via MC correction) in the experimental jet definition. If useInvisibles is true, Rivet not only includes the neutrinos from hadron decays, but all invisibles. W+jets analyses should be careful there! See you, David PS: I still do not understand why one would want to correct for an undetectable particle, but we've had that discussion before.
