-   +====== ​LH Accord for scale variations ​====== 
-    * LH Accord for scale variations? [discussion on: **Thu June 8th 09h00-10h30**] +PeopleJoão Pires, Kostas Theofilatos,​ Joey Huston, Mario Campanelli ... (**add your name** if you are interested) 
-    test case e.g. jet-veto cross section ​in Drell-Yan (N jets)+ 
 + 
 +===== Notes from the discussion in LH ===== 
 +Slides: [[:​2017:​scales_pires.pdf | scale choices]]  
 + 
 +   * decompose inclusive PT distributions to the sum of PT1PT2, PT3, PT4+ (possible follow-up from the planned experimental measurements),​ (award is: bet of free coffee from Daniel Maitre)  
 +   what about other scales HT/2 
 +   cone size dependences ​  
 +   * Gregors Soyez suggestion for DR-informed scale varition for large and small anglularly separated jets (?) [to be further clarified
 + 
 +===For more details, see the notes for the Fixed Order vs ME+PS comparisons for inclusive jets ==== 
 + 
 +====Scale choices in ratios==== 
 +   *understand degree of scale cancellations in ratios of cross sections by comparing NLO predictions with corresponding NNLO ones, i.e. W+>​=1 ​jet/Z+>=1 jet, H+>=1 jet/​Z+>​=1 jet at NLO and at NNLO, using same central scale and variations about that scale 
 +===sub-set of questions from Cambridge Scales workshop:​=== 
 +   ​*Ratios of cross sections; we can categorize situations where the choice of the same (or similar) scale for the numerator and denominator is warranted; ​in order of strength of validity ​-ratio of same cross section at different energies 
 +   ​*ratio of same cross section at different rapidities 
 +   ​*ratio of n/n-1 jet cross sections 
 +   ​*ratio ​ of X+n jet/Y+ n jet, where X and Y are similar, i.e. W and Z 
 +   ​*ratio of X+n jet/Y+ n jet, where X and Y are dissimilar, i.e. W and H
