Scale Factor Database

The Scale factor database, contains a list of scale-factors associated to a label. This are constructed in the looper and can be used in the analysis.

Scale Factors Database are parsed by:

python/ParseDat.py ReadSFDB

WARNING: Scale factors are not applied on data, unless a specific guard is removed by asking e->weight(false).

Different type of scale factors are supported:

• 'include' read file
• Base scale factors

# LABEL type pt eta sf err
mysf1 base 1.2 0.2

• Pt-Eta dependent scale factors

# LABEL type pt eta sf err
mysf2 pteta 0 50 -2 2 1.2 0.1
mysf2 pteta 50 100 -2 2 1.21 0.05

• CVS: as given by for the B SF

• TH2 based (egamma)

## electron veto from egamma POG

• spline: interpolate the sf (pt dependent) with a spline

## label spline pt sf err
