Sunday's discussion
We would like to devise a strategy to interpret the data among the
large number of theoretical approaches. This is true for all our
measurements we want to perform. At the moment, we use each
calculation available and published (also a preprint is OK), once we
have the corresponding programs to run the calculation.
We would like to discuss how we can choose
whether to adopt a calculation (e.g. is having a publication enough?).
Once/if we adopt more than a calculation, what can we quote as
final result? At the moment we present all the results from all
the adopted calculations. Can we just use one calculation instead of
others to quote the final results? Can we make an average of the
different calculations and e.g. use the maximum difference as
theoretical error?
Similarly, also from the experimental point of view we do have
different analyses for each final state. In the HFAG now we are
averaging all the measurements for the same final state (only in the
inclusive Vub we show also the results for each kind of analysis).
Does it make sense to
combine the results from all the measurements (of the same final
states) from the theoretical point of view? Moreover, for sa same
analisys (eg B-recoil) we present distributions in more than a
kinematical variable and accordingly different values of Vub. Should we
choose among them? Eg the one with the smallest total error?
