delphes_trigger

Asked by Zhao-Huan Yu

Hi,

I am wondering what the delphes_trigger.dat file is used for.
It seems that this file provides some trigger conditions for reconstructing objects.
Dose it affect the reconstructed objects after detector simulation?

Nevertheless, in order to run Delphes, I just need to provide a delphes_card.dat file, is that right?

Thanks in advance,
Zhao-Huan

That's a file which is only used by Delphes2.
if you use Delphes2 and not Delphes3 then you should provide both cards.
When using Delphes3 (the default) only the delphes_card is needed.

Cheers,

Olivier
