Weighting ROOT files in expert mode

Asked by Nicolas Deutschmann

Dear MA5 team,

I would like to use several ROOT files that I generated and that are associated with processes that have different cross-section. At the interactive level, I can set the cross-sections of each sample, but is there a way to do the same in the expert level apart by running an analysis on each file independently and adding the results properly normalized by hand ?

Thanks a lot,
Nicolas.

Hi Nicolas,

What I am usually doing is either to include the cross section value in the filename and extract it at the analysis level, or to postprocess tons of saf files in order to normalize them correctly.

Regards,

Benjamin
