set an anti b-quark(b bar) for a variable/selection/plot in reco mode

Asked by Hilal

Dear MA5 experts
I have a process contains b bbar in the final state.
how can i set an anti b-quark(b bar) for a variable/selection/plot in reco mode from a hepmc file?

Hi Hilal,

There is no bbar jet in reco mode. Only b-jets, regardless of the initial b-quark.

Regards,

Benjamin

Hi Fuks,

thanks a lot for your reply.

also, how can i plot the invariant mass of missing energy in reco mode (from a hepmc file), i tried like:
define invisible = 12 -12 14 -14 16 -16
plot M(invisible invisible)
I find empty plot (in contrast when i plot it in partonic mode )

You should enter a cross section (or normalize the results to one), as it is lost in the reco process. The PDG code for the MET is 12.

Cheers,

Benjamin
