Cuts in MadAnalysis
Asked by
Nick
I have a question about the syntax for cuts in MadAnalysis.
My events are ordered by pt (the default).
I tried using the following cuts in ma_card.dat (with not other cuts present) on a set of pgs data and obtained different results:
Cut 1:
etamax 1 2 2d0
Cut 2:
etamax 1 2 2d0
etamax 1 1 2d0
By the explanation at the top of ma_card, it would seem that these two cuts should do the same thing, but Cut 2 had fewer passing events than Cut 1. I know that a max cut is ignored if a particle does not exist. Does this mean that the cut in Cut 1 is ignored if 1 particle exists from class 1 but not a second?
