 +**Discussion on Monday:**

 +overview: {{:​2017:​2017_06_12.pdf |slides }} 
 + 
 +ATLAS perspective:​ slides 
 + 
 +technicalities (bb4l generator):​ 
 + 
 +   * make sure that numerical accuracy reached in event generation from MC is the same as in TH-paper 
 + 
 +       * possible to have grids from the authors (seems to be a viable solution, as atlas and cms will agree - or already agreed - on the settings) 
 + 
 +       * if grids will be provided, need to agree on parameters to scan upon. It seems that order 20 runs will  be enough (a scan would mostly be done using 5-10 values for mtop, and 2-3 values for hdamp) 
 + 
 +       * It might even be possible to use the powheg reweighting machinery to avoid having to re-run all the grids. This might depend on how far mtop is moved from the central value. T. Jezo and collaborators have tried this. Perhaps it'd be useful to perform a closure-test,​ but using the outermost mtop values that atlas/cms would use. 
 + 
 +       * this reweighting would miss the mtop dependence in R/B. There exists an experimental facility in powheg, to capture these effects via a reweighting,​ but it was implemented only for DY, and rarely used. Not clear it would work here.
