[Rivet] Rivet Trouble

Hi Eike,

Indeed, Rivet expects the beam energies to be constant across a run because
in general the cross sections of a process will change with COM energy.

Is there a reason for not using two separate files? Sorry for my
ignorance---I'm not familiar with this particular analysis.
