[Rivet] Validation & tuning phone meeting, Monday 29th Sept, 4pm (UK)Lars Sonnenschein sonne at mail.cern.chMon Oct 6 15:54:03 BST 2008
Hello Andy the Z->ee branching ratio is a factor of about three smaller than for W->enu. The table in the paper (hep-ex/0107012) shows in each pT bin that the Z xsec is about one order of magnitude smaller. The Z pT spectrum looks more or less alright. Overall the entries are about 30% lower than in data. Similar for the W xsec (apart of the too steeply falling pT distribution) I will produce some plots with comparison to data Lars On Mon, 6 Oct 2008, Andy Buckley wrote: > Lars Sonnenschein wrote: > > Hi > > I have put some plots for the D0 2001 WpT <-> ZpT analysis at > > http://www-d0.fnal.gov/~sonne/D0_2001_S4674421/ > > Thanks Lars, > > Presumably there is some sort of extra normalisation factor at work > here, since the W pT spec y-axis has a very different range to the Z pT > one.
