[Rivet] ALICE input to Rivet - Xi(1322) and Omega(1672) pT spectra in pp 7 TeV (ALICE_2012_I1097057)

[Jesper Roy Christiansen]

Dear Boris and ALICE collaborators

First of all thank you for providing the Rivet analysis, I have already 
tried to run it to test how the new model compares (but I need a bit 
more time before I am going to discuss that in details :)).

I have also tried to compare this analysis with the Xi production 
measured by CMS (CMS_2011_S8978280), and the models/data seems to be 
quite different (the two analysis differs in that one is NSD, where as 
yours is fully inelastic). But before drawing any conclusions, I would 
first like to test whether I use the analysis correctly. I was therefore 
wondering if you have the MC data that is shown in the article available 
in a table format? That way I would be able to run Pythia with the same 
tune and verify that I can get the same result as is in your article (if 
you already did this, it is of course not needed for me to do it). 
Otherwise if you for some reason still happen to have the Pythia .cmnd 
file you used to generate the events used in the article laying around, 
I would be very happy if you could send me that (I know this is probably 
a bit too much to ask).

Best regards
Jesper
