| 79 | >>> We don't want to create to much imbalance between CMS and ATLAS (the only exception is electrons, but we did not find the relevant plot for ATLAS), |
| 80 | >>> so we have decided to produce a real MET validation plot for CMS and and the fake validation for ATLAS. This choice was simply driven by the fact that the real MET |

| 82 | >>> As a matter of fact PU mitigation on the MET relies on complex multi-variate algorithms |
| 83 | >>> in CMS which are out of scope in Delphes. The only advantage in using the energy-flow particle instead of calorimeter tower for computing MET in the presence of pile-up |
| 84 | >>> is the superior resolution of track in comparison to towers. PU tracks cannot simply be removed (in contrast to what is done for jets). |
