[Rivet] Z boson mass taken from ZFinder is pre-FSR or post-FSRYu-hsiang Chang 張祐祥 index0192 at yahoo.com.twTue Jun 9 11:14:03 BST 2015
Hi all, I have question for the FinalState and the ZFinder in Rivet. I want to know when I take the Z boson mass from the ZFinder, it is pre-FSR or post-FSR? (undergoes final state radiation(FSR) or not. In other words, does the 4-momentum of Z boson includes the energy and momentum of the FSR photon? ) For example, my Rivet plugin SMP_13_003.cc has these content : --------------------------------------------------- void init() { // Full final state const FinalState fs(-5.0, 5.0); addProjection(fs, "FS"); // Z finders for muons const ZFinder zfe(fs, -2.5, 2.5, 0*GeV, PID::ELECTRON, 15*GeV, 1500*GeV); addProjection(zfe, "ZFE"); ...... } void analyze(const Event& event) { const ParticleVector& z = zfe.bosons(); const double mass_z = z[0].mass(); ...... }--------------------------------------------------- So I want to know the mass taken from the Z boson is pre-FSR or post-FSR? Since I use the result of my rivet plugin (from YODA and then transform it to ROOT format),to compare with the pre-FSR and post-FSR mass of Z boson (generated by Powheg), and I find my rivet result is consistent to the pre-FSR instead of post-FSR.(previous one tell me that the FinalState object has already undergone the FSR, but since now I see inconsistent so I want to ask the part of ZFinder) I put my rivet plugin (SMP_13_003.cc), and the comparison (snap shot ) in attachment. In comparison, the red point is the result of my rivet plugin, and the blue line is the pre-FSR or post-FSR. Thanks.
