-==== 2HDM Studies ====
-//Kristin Lohwasser, Ken Lane, Jon Butterworth, David Grellscheid, Lukas Pritchett, ...//
-=== First look with default parameters ===
-Made in Les Houches, Masses as below, Beta = 0.0813, MixH = 0.0883
-  * [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/2hdm/wplots8/ATLAS_2016_I1426515/index.html|8 TeV WW plots]]
-=== Proposed parameter scan from Ken ===
-Start with:
-  * m(h_1) = 125 GeV
-  * m(h_2) = 30 GeV
-  * m(h_3) = 30 GeV
-  * beta = arcsin(v2/246 GeV) = 0.05084 for v2 = 12.5 GeV (and = 0.08139 20 GeV, if you feel ambitious)
-  * mixh = beta - alpha for alpha = -0.435 x 10^{-2}  (and -0.695 x 10{-2} for v2 = 20 GeV; ditto)
-The signal processes of interest are:
-$$\begin{aligned}
-\bar{q} q \rightarrow \gamma, Z \rightarrow h^+ h^- \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^- + E_T^{\rm missing}
- \\ \bar{d} u \rightarrow W^+ \rightarrow h^+ h_2 \ {\rm AND}\ h^+ h_3 \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^+ \mu^- + E_T^{\rm missing}, \\ {\rm (plus\ charge\ conjugate\ )} \\  \bar{q} q \rightarrow Z \rightarrow h_2 h_3 -> \bar{b} b \mu^+ \mu^-\end{aligned}$$
-For these, you want to scan over $h^+$ mass from 95 GeV to 250 GeV.
-=== Update from Jon 18 Sept ===
-Here's a [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/2HDM/8_WEAK/|first look]], for inclusive $h^+$ or $h^-$ production, 8 TeV, parameters as above and beta = 0.0508, mixh = 0.0547 and $m(h^{+/-}) = 100$ GeV.
-Total cross section 1.8 pb.
-Note that the ATLAS 4l result still has a lot of exclusion power, even though the $h_2 h_3$ production channel is switched off (with this switched on, the total cross section is ~346 pb). From looking at the Herwig logs, I think this contribution may come from events like $q\bar{q} \rightarrow h_2 h^+ \rightarrow h_2 h_3 \mu \nu$ with subsequent $h_2, h_3$ decays to muons.
-However, you can see that the [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/2HDM/8_WEAK/ATLAS_2016_I1426515/index.html|ATLAS WW measurement]] also has some exclusion - about 92%. I don't understand why the [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/2HDM/8_WEAK/CMS_2017_I1467451/index.html|CMS H->WW]] one doesn't have an exclusion anywhere in the same league. Either the Higgs selection cuts suppress it or there is a bug/feature in the rivet routine (either ATLAS or CMS!). I will look into it.

-=== Herwig status ===
-<del>Herwig not dealing with UFO file properly. PR aiming to fix the 3D vertex.</del>
-This is now fixed. Peter has implemented the relevant vertices in Herwig/ThePEG and its UFO interface, and validated the cross section against MadGraph. This is not yet in 7.1.1 but is in the Herwig 7 trunk in the
-repository, hopefully in next release. The exception is the 5-point vertices which are used in the CP-even model:
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVVVS ( g g g g phiNP ) in V_49 is not supported.
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVSSS ( W- W+ H H phiNP ) in V_118 is not supported.
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVVVS ( a a W- W+ phiNP ) in V_122 is not supported.
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVVVS ( W- W- W+ W+ phiNP ) in V_126 is not supported.
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVVVS ( a W- W+ Z phiNP ) in V_150 is not supported.
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVSSS ( Z Z H H phiNP ) in V_156 is not supported.
-   Warning: Lorentz structure VVVVS ( W- W+ Z Z phiNP ) in V_160 is not supported.
-These are currently ignored - hope they aren't a major effect (they don't look like they should be...)
-=== Some (preliminary!) results with Contur ===
-Suggested parameter ranges from Sylvain:
-   CP-even scalar:
-   mphi in [10, 100] GeV
-   f0B in [1, 10] TeV
-   f0W in [1, 10] TeV
-   f0H in [1, 10] TeV
-   CP-odd scalar:
-   mphi in [10, 100] GeV
-   f0B in [1, 10] TeV
-   f0W in [1, 10] TeV
-   For each case, all the other f's should be set to very large values.
-So, here are some scans using these ranges (f0 value labelled $\Lambda$ on the vertical axis, $M_\phi$ on the horizontal.

-Not really sure of what sensible parameter ranges would be at the moment, but here is an example run for CP-Odd scalar with some 8 TeV data. I (Jon) set $m_\phi = 80$ GeV, and setting the mass scales for the effective couplings at 50 or 100 TeV as follows: $f0B, f0W, f0H, f0gam, f0Z = 50$ TeV, $f0G, f0u, f0d, f0l = 100$ TeV. Total cross section is $4.4 pb^{-1}$.
-The Contur "exclusion" for these parameters with the 8 TeV measurements currently in Rivet is at 77% cl. The exclusion dominantly comes from the ATLAS diphoton cross sections: [[http://inspirehep.net/record/1591327|arXiv:1704.03839]].
-The comparison plots are here for [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/NSCPO/7_HAD/index.html|7 TeV]] [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/NSCPO/8_HAD/index.html|8 TeV]]. You can see that the most significant exclusion is from the mass peak, though many other differential cross sections show a significant effect (they are not all combined, since they are the same events - only the most significant contributes to the overall c.l.)
-I also made a run where I increased the couplings to weak bosons by setting $f0B, f0W, f0H, f0Z = 5$ TeV, just to see what happens. I also turned off the $\phi$+jet process, to focus on the electroweak-type signatures. The exclusion is now at 97% c.l., dominated by the ATLAS $W/Z + \gamma$ [[http://inspirehep.net/record/1448301|measurement]]. The results are here for [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/NSCPO/7_WEAK/index.html|7 TeV]] and [[http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/~jmb/Work/LH/NSCPO/8_WEAK/index.html|8 TeV]] (8 TeV is by far the most interesting).
-(Modulo BR changes, the exclusion from the diphotons would presumably still be similar to the above, since the production cross section is driven by $f0G$ which didn't change. This could be combined with the 97%, as the events are independent.)
-Next step? Agree some sensible parameter ranges to scan, presumably mass and some subset of couplings; I can combine 7, 8 and 13 TeV limits, of course.
