| 15 | | > Also, I found from another ticket that hhow tau tagging in delphes works: for each reconstructed jet, if we can find a hadronically decayed tau-parton inside a cone DR w.r.t the center of jet, then we apply the efficiency provided by the user using a RN. Then, Delphes does not use track information, does it ? What is use of |
