Uncertainties in kinematic regions |
Recommendation (LHCXSWG-INT-2017-001); Tool |

It is a set of per-event weights, one for each source of uncertainty, to plug&play using the simplified/template cross section setup. Implemented everything in MINLO NNLOPS, being this the reference and the most up to date generator. Re-weighting Powheg to NNLOPS is mandatory , since the uncertainties have been calculated with a given perturbative order, and if it is not matched with the generator, the result may be inconsistent. |

Quantify theory-related uncertainties |
Rivet analysis for MC/MC comparisons |
Fall 2019 |
Identify all important theory-related sources of uncertainties for signal and main backgrounds. Final aim of these MC/MC comparisons is to deliver a set of recommendations for theoretical uncertainties in the experimental analyses. |
