 +   ​*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
