Scale-PDF uncertainties

Asked by Ioannis Tsinikos

Hi MadAnalysis Team,

I am producing an event sample using aMC@NLO, showering and Hadronizing with HERWIG6. I use the fastjet package in MadAnalysis and extract an lhe or lhco file. I notice that this file does not contain the event reweighting information, which can provide the scale and PDF uncertainties. Is there a way to keep this information?
Furthermore is there a way to read this information with the last version of MadAnalysis even from a parton level lhe file?

Best,
Ioannis

Hello Ioannis,

This is on our to-do list for some time already. The routines and the treatment of the reweighting information is still absent from MadAnalysis 5 and I am afraid that this development will not be available in a close future (manpower issues).

Best,

Benjamin
