#291 new How to

Eflow branches

Description

Hi,

I have one question about the use of eflow branches in jet reconstruction. In the latest Delphes-3.1.2, compared with the old version, it seems the following two options are absent,

add Branch Calorimeter/eflowTowers EFlowTower Tower
add Branch MuonMomentumSmearing/muons EFlowMuon Muon

while another two new branches are present,

add Branch Calorimeter/eflowPhotons EFlowPhoton Tower
add Branch Calorimeter/eflowNeutralHadrons EFlowNeutralHadron Tower

For fastjet reconstruction, am I supposed to use the two new eflow branches instead in root file produced by Delphes-3.1.2?

Thanks!
Jing

Hi Jing,

do you mean you are running FastJet outside of Delphes?
In any case, if you want to use particle-flow object you should use
the EFlowMerger/eflow collection (which is indeed a merge of tracks, photons and neutral hadrons)

If on the other hand you want to use pure Calorimeter objects, you can simply use Calorimeter/towers.
By default, in the CMS card for instance, the input collection for the FastJetFinder is EFlowMerger/eflow

You can have a look at examples/Example3.C.
