[Rivet] ChargedLeptons including neutrinos?Markus Seidel markus.seidel at cern.chTue Sep 20 13:55:09 BST 2016
Addendum: The DressedLeptons projection currently prevents neutral particles (like neutrinos) from being dressed with photons but still returns the bare neutrals. (Might be intended for flexibility?)
