- Read in the table (with Mathematica) and calculate relative correction factors named (\eta^-,\eta^+,\eta), see slides, or apply a similar method (e.g. arXiv:1510.03450) to quantify the relevance of the interferences. | - Read in the table (with Mathematica) and calculate relative correction factors named (\eta^-,\eta^+,\eta), see slides, or apply a similar method (e.g. arXiv:1510.03450) to quantify the relevance of the interferences. |
