NAME

       rivet-rmgaps - Remove binnning gaps in Rivet-generated MC AIDA files.

SYNOPSIS

       rivet-rmgaps datafile.aida mcfile.aida [outputfile.aida]

DESCRIPTION

       Remove  bins in Rivet-generated MC AIDA files which are actually binning gaps in the reference histogram. Rivet's histogramming system cur-
       rently has no way to leave gaps between bins, hence this clean-up script.

       If the output file is not specified, the input MC file will be overwritten.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       -R, --rivet-refs
	      use the Rivet reference data files for comparison (default)

       --no-rivet-refs
	      don't use the Rivet reference data files for comparison

       -v, --verbose
	      print debug (very verbose) messages

       -q, --quiet
	      be very quiet

NAME

       rivet-rescale - Rescale histos in observable-file of AIDAFILE to the area of the corresponding histos in REFDATAPATH

SYNOPSIS

       rivet-rescale [-r <REFDATAPATH>] [-O <observable-file>] [-b <bindef> [-b ...]] <AIDAFILE> [<OUTFILE>]

DESCRIPTION

       Rescale	histos	in  observable-file of AIDAFILE to the area of the corresponding histos in REFDATAPATH. REFDATAPATH can either be a single
       AIDA-file or a directory containing AIDA-files. By default the standard Rivet reference files are used.

       Observable definitions of the form /CDF_2000_S4155203/d01-x01-y01  1.0 can be used to specify an absolute normalisation (1.0, here)  for  a
       histogram rather than using the reference histo. If the --multiply switch is used, the ref histo area will be scaled by the given factor to
       give the target normalisation.

       You can also define bins to chop out in the observable-file in the same way as in chop_bins: /CDF_2000_S4155203/d01-x01-y01:0:35  1.0  This
       will chop the bins with Z-pT > 35 GeV and obtain a rescaling factor from that restricted bin range: note that the output histograms will be
       rescaled but *unchopped*.

       Only one bin definition can be used for each histogram, so the last bindef specified for that histo path will be the one which is  applied.
       The bindefs are constructed in order from those in the obsfile, and then those given on the command line with the -b flag, like this:

       -b "/CDF_2000_S4155203/d01-x01-y01:5:135 2.0"

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       -O OBSFILE, --obsfile=OBSFILE
	      Specify a file with histograms (and bin ranges) that are to be normalised.

       -b BINRANGES, --bins=BINRANGES
	      Specify a histogram and bin range that is to be used.  The format is `AIDAPATH:start:stop'.

       -r REFDIR, --refdir=REFDIR
	      File of folder with reference histos

       -a     Produce AIDA output rather than FLAT

       -f     Produce FLAT output rather than AIDA

       --multiply
	      Rescale histos using weight given as factor rather than new area

       -i, --in-place
	      Overwrite input file rather than making inputrescaled.aida

       --fast Try loading only reference files from refpath that match analyses in input-file

EXAMPLES

       rivet-rescale out.aida
	      This will return the histos in out.aida, scaled to match the overall normalisations of the Rivet ref data.

       rivet-rescale -O observables.obs out.aida
	      This  will  return  the histos in out.aida, scaled by the bin definitions specified in observables.obs (and using the Rivet ref data
	      again)

       rivet-rescale -r path/to/CDF_2000_S4155203.aida -b "/CDF_2000_S4155203/d01-x01-y01:2:5" out.aida
	      For this Z-boson pT-distribution, the normalisation to the provided ref data file is only applied between 2 < x < 5 GeV.
