[Rivet] numerical difference between data and mc aidaAlbert Knutsson albert.knutsson at cern.chWed Apr 3 10:39:19 BST 2013
Dear Rivet experts, we have a numerical problem with an aida file. The data aida file have points looking like this: <dataPoint> <measurement value="5.000000e-02" errorPlus="1.666667e-02" errorMinus="1.666667e-02"/> <measurement value="1.186100e+00" errorPlus="1.535834e-01" errorMinus="1.535834e-01"/> </dataPoint> <dataPoint> <measurement value="8.333333e-02" errorPlus="1.666667e-02" errorMinus="1.666667e-02"/> <measurement value="1.763658e+00" errorPlus="2.291718e-01" errorMinus="2.291718e-01"/> </dataPoint> The corresponding points in the MC aida produced by rivet, looks like this: <dataPoint> <measurement value="5.000001e-02" errorPlus="1.666666e-02" errorMinus="1.666666e-02"/> <measurement value="1.281114e+00" errorPlus="2.092222e-02" errorMinus="2.092222e-02"/> </dataPoint> <dataPoint> <measurement value="8.333334e-02" errorPlus="1.666667e-02" errorMinus="1.666667e-02"/> <measurement value="1.924731e+00" errorPlus="2.560152e-02" errorMinus="2.560152e-02"/> </dataPoint> The consequence is that rivet-mkhtml complains about "+++ Error in Histogram.divide(): Binning of histograms differs" The ratio plots are still there, but there is a discontinuity in the distribution at the second point above. Do you have a solution to this? Thanks in advance! Cheers, Sunil and Albert
