Backport of #29567 (biased tau decayer) to CMSSW_9_4_X #29807
Conversation
A new Pull Request was created by @intrepid42 (Markus Seidel) for CMSSW_9_4_X. It involves the following packages: GeneratorInterface/Pythia8Interface @SiewYan, @efeyazgan, @mkirsano, @cmsbuild, @GurpreetSinghChahal, @agrohsje, @alberto-sanchez, @qliphy can you please review it and eventually sign? Thanks. cms-bot commands are listed here |
please test |
The tests are being triggered in jenkins. |

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next CMSSW_9_4_X IBs (tests are also fine) and once validation in the development release cycle CMSSW_11_1_X is complete. This pull request will now be reviewed by the release team before it's merged. @silviodonato, @dpiparo (and backports should be raised in the release meeting by the corresponding L2) |

PR description:
Backport of #29567 by @smrenna to require at least one tau decaying only to leptons after heavy resonance decays:
PR validation:
Validation plots for W and Z, things look as expected: https://mseidel.web.cern.ch/mseidel/cms/PDG_TAUS/
In particular, here is the number of tau->charged lepton decays in Z events:
As expected, 0 lepton is depleted completely, and the ratio betwen 1 and 2 leptons stays the same.
To check spin correlations, here is a plot of the dPhi between the two charged leptons, in case of both taus decaying to charged leptons:
if this PR is a backport please specify the original PR and why you need to backport that PR:
Backport of #29567, needed for 2017 low-PU MC
