Update 08.14.2019 -- Pythia: Fitting Pi0 Spectra With Power Laws for EtTrg = 15 - 20 GeV
Way back, I fit the Pythia8 recoil jet spectra for pi0 and gamma-direct triggers with power laws. This was to get a reasonable prior to use as a systematic in our unfolding procedure. Unfo
Update 08.02.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Pythia8 vs. Pythia6 Response Matrices With Finer Binning
Previously, I checked to see if the discrepancy between the Pythia8 and Pythia6 responses was due to the efficiencies or the response matrix. And it definitely looked like something was up with
Update 07.31.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Comparing Unfolding Vs. Correcting Bin-By-Bin
I'm continuing to investigate the discrepancy between the data unfolded with our Pythia8 response and our Pytha6 response. A summary of the issue and investigation thus far can be found here:

Update 07.29.2019 -- Run 9 embedding: Matching Jets In Our Pythia8 Simulation vs. In Our Embedding Sample
I am continuing to investigate the discrepancy between two sets of unfolded data, one unfolded with a response generated in our standalone Pythia8 simulation and the other unfolded with a response cal

Update 07.24.2019 -- Run 9 embedding: Comparing Pythia6 Responses For Different Trigger Species
A few days back I compared the effect on unfolded data due to responses made with different species of trigger (pi0 vs. charged hadrons):
Update 07.24.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Comparing Responses and Effects Thereof Between an Unsmeared Pythia8 and a Pi0-Triggered Pythia6
Yesterday, I speculated that maybe the difference between the pi0-triggered Pythia8 corrections and the pi0-triggered Pythia6 corrections might be a question of tracking resolution. More specifi
Update 07.23.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Comparing Jet Response Between Pythia6 and Pythia8 With Pi0 Triggers
Yesterday, I noticed that using the Pythia6 (embedding) response generated using pi0 triggers vs.
Update 07.22.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Comparing Effect on Unfolding Data Using Embedding Response With Different Trigger Species
Previously, I was looking into the difference between unfolding data using a Pythia8 generated response and a Pythia6 (embedding) generated response:
