[Rivet] Born and dressed level in RivetDavid Grellscheid david.grellscheid at durham.ac.ukTue Oct 8 10:36:43 BST 2013
Hi Tim, > However the issue here is that we have many measurement which did use > only identified FSR photons in their dressing cones. If there is a procedure by which you can identify FSR photons in experimental data, it can be used in Rivet. That operational definition of FSR would then differ from truth-FSR in the same way that the operational definition of a gluon jet is not the same thing as a jet coming from an MC-truth gluon. The usual classification that MC generators make into ISR and FSR is a purely technical convenience in the codes, with no physical reality, as Jon was saying. This makes it very dependent on the actual generator used, and impossible to implement sensibly in Rivet. David
