Hi,

Thus spake Sercan Sen (Sercan.Sen at cern.ch):

Here I'd suggest to take particles within |eta|<4.9 or 5.0 or whatever
your acceptance is.

This will require the two hardest jets to be within 4.4. The paper and
also the description you give yourself just requires two jets of 20 GeV
within 4.4 and doesn't care if there is a harder jet at 4.5. Maybe
Alexander can confirm what he actually did?

Cheers,
