GENIE Reweight

The GENIE Reweight product is a selection of tools to propagate model uncertainties and to support generator-related analysis tasks. Users should note the inherent limitations of the reweighting procedure and be aware that this product does not include weight calculators for several important systematics, and that important modelling aspects are not reweightable in principle. The GENIE Reweight product does not provide the full systematic error for any GENIE comprehensive model or tune and, indeed, the GENIE tuning procedure makes no use of the ReWeight product but it relies on weighting functions from brute-force parameter scans made with the aid of the Professor tool [https://professor.hepforge.org/].

The GENIE Collaboration has medium-term plans to release Professor/YODA Generator response functions for all important modelling uncertainties, as well as to release all covariance matrices from the GENIE global fits to scattering data. In the mean time, please be aware of the numerous caveats with the use of the Reweight product.
