= How to add a sample in NUISANCE =
This is an informal step-by-step guide on how to add samples into the NUISANCE framework. Most of this can be derived by looking at the recently [https://nuisance.hepforge.org/trac/browser/src?order=date&desc=1 implemented measurements] for up-to-date references.
For this tutorial I'll be adding the '''T2K CC1π^+^ H,,2,,O data'''. The data comes from the [http://t2k-experiment.org/results/nd280data-numu-cc1pi-xs-on-h2o-2015/ T2K site] and [https://arxiv.org/abs/1605.07964 arxiv]. The data is supplied [http://t2k-experiment.org/wp-content/uploads/nd280data-numu-cc1pi-xs-on-h2o-2015.tar both in a ROOT file and a number of .csv files]: I'll be using the ROOT file here but very similar steps apply when using .csv or .txt files.
After implementation we'll be able to make data/MC comparisons to the T2K CC1π^+^ H,,2,,O data for NEUT, GENIE, GiBUU and !NuWro, all in the same framework. We'll get MC predictions, χ^2^ values, interaction mode contributions, and more using a consistent signal definition, guaranteed the same across the generators.
NUISANCE is currently fully written in '''C++03''' and we would appreciate future contributions to adhere to this standard.

= Examining the data and choosing distributions =
== Finding the neutrino flux and generating events ==
The first issue at hand is to find the flux for the experiment. If we don't have this, we cant make a generator prediction--unless the measurement is a total cross-section without any phase space cuts (in which case you should probably cast a suspicious eye).
A quick search through the arxiv document points us to reference ![12]. It is also in our [wiki:ExperimentFlux flux list].
I then generate events in NEUT 5.3.6 with a suitable card-file, see our [wiki:HowToNeut NEUT guide] on how to do this. The procedure is very similar for other generators too. We need the '''correct target (water)''' and '''flux''', and perform the '''model selections''' we want (e.g. Rein-Sehgal or Berger-Sehgal coherent model).'''
'''Aim to generate around 1M events with all interaction modes turned on.''' This way we make sure to get all interaction modes into the topologically defined cross-section. We get a small amount of CCQE events which excite a pion from the outgoing nucleon interacting in the nucleus to kick out a pion, leading to a CCQE+1π^+^ ~ CC1π^+^ final state, which is classified signal for this particular sample.
== Choosing a cross-section distribution ==
The T2K CC1π^+^ H,,2,,O data release contains various distributions in FIG 4. In this tutorial I'll look at adding one kinematic distribution and one derived distribution: p,,µ,, and E^rec^,,ν,,, shown below.
[[Image(T2K_CC1pip_H2O_pmu.png, 300px)]][[Image(T2K_CC1pip_H2O_enurec.png, 300px)]]
In NUISANCE we try to add all available distributions from a publication. '''However''', some distributions will have '''detector effects''' "folded" into them (i.e. they will be raw detector-level data). We can only use these if there is some method which bring detector-level variables (e.g. p,,µ,, seen in the detector) to truth-level variable (e.g. p,,µ,, seen after correcting for the detector effects).
= Preparing structure for a sample =
NUISANCE is designed to easily allow adding new samples.
[=#point_base]
Each experimental measurement is its own class. To simplify including new samples we supply a base class for 1D (`Measurement1D`) and 2D (`Measurement2D`) measurements, which in turn inherits from the virtual base class (`MeasurementBase`).
These `MeasurementBase` classes are looped over from the executables and data/MC comparisons are the result, calling functions like `MeasurementBase::Reconfigure`, `MeasurementBase::FillEventVariables`, `MeasurementBase::isSignal` and `MeasurementBase::GetLikelihood`.
A class has to at least inherit from `MeasurementBase` and implement the necessary methods to be "looped over". The recommended method is to use and expand the supplied `Measurement1D` and `Measurement2D` classes; anything else may require expert knowledge and won't be covered here.
The inheritance tree is simple and goes `Specific_Measurement -> MeasurementXD -> MeasurementBase`
[=#point_naming]
== Naming the sample ==
Some automatic processing is done on loading up the samples to set up generator scaling factors, χ^2^ calculations and so on. These are simple string comparisons done in the base class constructors, but do '''place responsibility on the user'''.
'''The structure is `Experiment_Measurement_Target_DataType_DimensionVar_Neutrino`''':
* `Experiment` is the experiment (for us T2K)
* `Measurement` is a suitable name for the cross-section (for us CC1pip)
* `Target` is the interaction target (for us H2O)
* `DataType` is the measurement type, either `Evt` for an event rate measurement or `XSec` for a cross-section measurement (for us `XSec`)
* `DimensionVar` is 1D or 2D followed by a suitable name for the dependent variable (for us `1Dpmu`)
* `Neutrino` is the neutrino type (for us `nu`)
Out of these, string comparisons are only made on `DataType` and `DimensionVar`. The other identifiers exist to adhere to some standard and keep sample naming tidy and consistent.
'''What to do:'''
Following the above convention, we end up with '''`T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu`''' and '''`T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1DEnuMB_nu`'''.
This is a sufficient name: there is no ambiguity what the class describes and there is no way of confusing it with other classes in NUISANCE.
== Placing the sample in a directory ==
As with many packages, NUISANCE has source code in the `src` directory. We have a directory for each experiment inside `src`, e.g. `src/T2K`, `src/MINERvA`, and so on.
The applications using the `src` files go in the `app` directory. However, including a new sample does not involve changing anything there, so let's ignore it for the purpose of this tutorial.
The new files themselves for the new samples should be identical (or very similar) to the sample name to avoid confusion.
'''What to do:'''
Make the new files '''`src/T2K/T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu.cxx`''' and '''`src/T2K/T2K_CC1pip_H2O_1Dpmu_nu.h`'''. These are the implementation and header files for the new measurement and similar goes for the `1DEnuMB` implementation.
== Placing the data in a directory ==
The data for the measurement goes into the `data` directory.
As with the `src` directory we have sub-directories for each experiment, e.g. `data/T2K` and `data/MINERvA`.
Furthermore, we specify another directory for the measurement topology to avoid confusion, e.g. `data/T2K/CC1pip` for our sample.
In some cases we might have the same topology defining the cross-section but for a different interaction target. In this case we add another sub-directory for the target, e.g. `data/T2K/CC1pip/H2O` for us.
'''What to do:'''
Put the ROOT file from the [http://t2k-experiment.org/results/nd280data-numu-cc1pi-xs-on-h2o-2015/ data release] into the `data/T2K/CC1pip/H2O` directory.

= Coding up a sample =
Now that we have the rough structure set-up, we can start writing some code.
[=#point_header]
== Writing the header ==
The T2K CC1π^+^ H,,2,,O data are all 1D distributions. The new classes should therefore inherit from the `Measurement1D` base class, as mentioned [#point_base earlier]. The `Measurement1D` class is implemented in `src/FitBase/Measurement1D.cxx`.
NUISANCE requires a `constructor` and `destructor` for the class, and we'll need to overload `MeasurementBase` methods which define the dependent variable(s) (p,,µ,, and E^rec^,,ν,, in our case) and what our signal is (CC interaction with one muon and one positive pion with no other pions or mesons and any number of nucleons in our case). The `MeasurementBase` functions which we need to overload are `MeasurementBase::isSignal(FitEvent *event)` and `MeasurementBase::FillEventVariables(FitEvent *event)`.
The `FitEvent` class is an object which contains information about one single event: all the particles, their kinematics and their status before and after the interaction, the interaction channel(s) which produced the final state particles, possible secondary interactions, the interaction target, and so on. The `FitEvent` class is implemented in `src/FitBase/FitEvent.cxx` and is the generator-independent "common event format" which NUISANCE uses for the generator events.
[=#point_signal]
We also note that the `src/T2K` directory contains `T2K_SignalDef.cxx`. This extends the `SignalDef` namespace which holds many of the signal definitions for the classes. `SignalDef` itself lives in `src/Utils/SignalDef.cxx`, but may see additions from experiment folders such as `src/T2K/T2K_SignalDef.cxx`.
If you're implementing multiple distributions for the same measurement (e.g. dσ/dp,,µ,, and dσ/dcosθ,,µ,,) we recommend adding the signal definition to the namespace rather than directly in the `isSignal(FitEvent *event)` function in the class implementation. We'll talk about implementing a signal definition [#point_signaldef later].
'''What to do:'''
Our header file now looks like:
{{{
#ifndef T2K_CC1PIP_H2O_XSEC_1DPMU_NU_H_SEEN
#define T2K_CC1PIP_H2O_XSEC_1DPMU_NU_H_SEEN
#include "Measurement1D.h"
#include "T2K_SignalDef.h"
class T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu : public Measurement1D {
public:
T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu(std::string inputfile,
FitWeight *rw, std::string type, std::string fakeDataFile);
virtual ~T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu() {};
void FillEventVariables(FitEvent *event);
bool isSignal(FitEvent *event);
private:
};
#endif
}}}
where we've copied the constructor arguments from some other class we're using as a template. I'll elaborate more on this [#point_const below].
Note the simple structure for the sample: we really only need to set up three functions. The inheritance from `Measurement1D` and helper function within it does most of the heavy lifting.
[=#point_const]
== Writing the constructor ==
NUISANCE loads samples through `FCN/SampleList.cxx` in the function `SampleUtils::LoadSample`. This function makes a `std::list` of `MeasurementBase` pointers which it later loops over in calls from the executables.
Most of the automated setting up of histograms, titles, and so on is done in `Measurement1D::SetupMeasurement(std::string inputfile, std::string type, FitWeight *rw, std::string fakeDataFile)`. It hence makes sense to have a class constructor which passes all of these on to `SetupMeasurement`.
The arguments to `Measurement1D::SetupMeasurement` are:
* `inputfile`: the location of the input file containing generated events
* `type`: the type of comparison we want to make with this sample
* `rw`: the reweighting engine which may or may not be used to reweight the sample
* `fakeDataFile`: the location of a fake-data input file which is to be used as data instead of the actual data for fake-data studies
which currently all have to be passed. In reality, both `rw` and `fakeDataFile` do nothing in `SetupMeasurement` but are left for legacy reasons. We will likely change this soon!
Looking at the base classes which we are inheriting our sample from (`Measurement1D` and `MeasurementBase`, both in `src/FitBase`), we minimally need to set:
* `std::string fName`: The name of the sample
* `std::string fPlotTitles`: The x and y axes of the sample
* `double EnuMin`: The minimum neutrino energy in the sample signal definition
* `double EnuMax`: The maximum neutrino energy in the sample signal definition
* `TH1D *fDataHist`: The data histogram scanned from the provided input
* `TH1D *fMCHist`: The generator histogram binning with same units as `fDataHist`
* `TH1D *fMCStat`: The generator histogram without any scaling (i.e. N,,events,,)
* `TH1D *fMCFine`: The generator histogram with same units as `fDataHist` but finer binning
* `TH1 **fMCHist_PDF`: The mode-by-mode generator histograms
* `TMatrixDSym *fFullCovar`: The covariance matrix
* `TMatrixDSym *covar`: The inverted covariance matrix (bad naming, sorry!)
* `double fScaleFactor`: The scaling factor we need to go from a event rate to a cross-section (N,,evt,,(p,,µ,,) -> dSig(p,,µ,,))
We can set most of these by calling helper functions in `Measurement1D`, such as
* `Measurement1D::SetupMeasurement`: checks the naming of the sample and sets up the protected/private members, sets up the input generator processing for the sample, sets the fit options
* `Measurement1D::SetDataValues`: sets the data histogram from a given file
* `Measurement1D::SetCovarMatrix`: sets up the covariance matrices needed to calculate likelihoods
* `Measurement1D::SetupDefaultHist`: sets all the generator histograms and their auxillary histograms (e.g. mode-by-mode generator histograms)
or similar functions, e.g. calling `Measurement1D::SetDataFromFile` instead of `Measurement1D::SetDataValues`. '''Feel free to add reasonable setter functions to the base classes if you can't find a suitable one'''.
{{{
#!div class=important
Please note that the '''order in which the helper functions are called is crucial to proper operation'''. E.g. `Measurement1D::SetupDefaultHist` relies on `fDataHist` having been set and a crash is likely if it is called before then.
}}}
Current NUISANCE (v1r0) behaviour requires `fName`, `fPlotTitles`, `EnuMin`, `EnuMax` and `fScaleFactor` to be set by user in the implementation file. These are the only variables that need to be supplied by the user in the constructor, granted above helper functions are used.
'''For non-expert use''', it's sufficient to just copy the `fScaleFactor` variable as `(fEventHist->Integral("width")*1E-38)/double(fNEvents)/TotalIntegratedFlux("width");`. This number is applied to the event rate histogram to take us to a cross-section histogram in `Measurement1D::ScaleEvents`.
{{{
#!div class=important
If the cross-section is not in cm^2^/nucleon but instead cm^2^/CH (or any other molecule) you will have to scale the `fScaleFactor` by the number of available target nucleons.
For CCQE, ν,,µ,, interactions only occur off neutrons, which we have 6 of in CH. But the total number of nucleons in CH is 13. So if an experiment reports their cross-section in cm^2^/CH for CCQE ν,,µ,, and our generator output is cm^2^/nucleon we need to do `fScaleFactor*=13./6.`.
If instead an experiment measures a CC1π^+^ cross-section in `cm^2^/CH`, we scale by a factor 13 because CC1π^+^ happens on both neutrons and protons.
}}}
It's possible that these will be automated in the future, so please look at [https://nuisance.hepforge.org/trac/browser/src?order=date&desc=1 recently implemented samples] for up-to-date references.
{{{
#!div class=important
This is where we are sensitive to the the input data format. If using a .csv or .txt file instead, `Measurement1D::SetDataValues` might be a better option.
Please look through the `Measurement1D::SetData*` functions and decide on which works best for you, or extend the current implementations to match your requirements and/or [mailto:nuisance@projects.hepforge.org contact us]'''
}}}
'''What to do:'''
The data and covariance matrix are available in a ROOT file for the sample, so I used `Measurement1D::SetDataFromFile` to set up the data and `Measurement1D::SetCovarFromDataFile` to set up the covariances.
`fName` and the other `std::string`s were set to reasonable names and `fScaleFactor` was set to the default mentioned above.
The `constructor` for the class now looks like:
{{{
#include "T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu.h"
// The muon momentum
//********************************************************************
T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu::T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu(

SetupDefaultHist();
fScaleFactor = (fEventHist->Integral("width")*1E-38)/double(fNEvents)/TotalIntegratedFlux("width");
};
}}}
== Specifying the event-level dependent variable(s) ==
We are now at the point where we can write the `FillEventVariables(FitEvent *event)` implementation mentioned [=#point_header above]. This function defines the dependent variable(s) and how to get them from each `FitEvent` object that gets passed.
The `FitEvent` class provides numerous getter functions to make `FillEventVariables` implementation as simple as possible.
This is the only major point where the p,,μ,, and E^rec^,,ν,, implementations differ.
[=#point_muon_dist]
=== For the p,,µ,, distribution ===
To get the muon momentum, we first need a muon in the event. The function `FitEvent::NumFSParticle(int pdg)` counts the number of final-state particles with pdg-code `pdg` and returns that number. So our first check is
{{{
// Need to make sure there's a muon
if (event->NumFSParticle(13) == 0) return;
}}}
To then get the muon kinematics in the `FitEvent` we use `FitEvent::GetHMFSParticle(int pdg)` to get the '''H'''ighest'''M'''omentum'''F'''inal'''S'''tate particle, which return a `FitParticle` object. The implementation for `FitParticle` is in `FitBase/FitParticle.cxx`. We can now access the ROOT object `TLorentzVector` in the `FitParticle` which stores the kinematics for the muon. So after we know there's a muon in the event we get the muon by:
{{{
// Get the muon
TLorentzVector Pmu = event->GetHMFSParticle(13)->fP;
}}}
Now we just need the momentum of this `TLorentzVector`, which can simply be done by calling `TLorentzVector::Vect()::Mag()`, amongst others.
However, we recommend using the `FitUtils` namespace to unify the implementations and minimize errors. The `FitUtils` namespace lives in `src/Utils/FitUtils.cxx`, in which we see the `double p(TLorentzVector)` function.
To get the muon momentum (in GeV) we do
{{{
double p_mu = FitUtils::p(Pmu);
}}}
and then to finally set the `Measurement1D` member which saves the dependent variable we do
{{{
fXVar = p_mu;
return;
}}}
which concludes the `FillEventVariables(FitEvent *event)` function.
=== For the E^rec^,,ν,, distribution ===
E^rec^,,ν,, needs to be reconstructed from the outgoing particles, so requires a little more work. However it follows very similar steps to the [#point_muon_dist muon case].
To reconstruct E^rec^,,ν,, we need:
* Muon momentum
* Pion momentum
* Muon/neutrino angle
* Pion/neutrino angle
* Muon/pion angle
* All the particle masses
So we proceed to find the `TLorentzVector`s in the event as before. We first need to make sure we have a positive pion and a negative muon in the event:
{{{
// Need to make sure there's a muon
if (event->NumFSParticle(13) == 0) return;
// Need to make sure there's a pion
if (event->NumFSParticle(211) == 0) return;
}}}
Then get the relevant `TLorentzVector`s:
{{{
// Get the incoming neutrino
TLorentzVector Pnu = event->GetNeutrinoIn()->fP;
// Get the muon
TLorentzVector Pmu = event->GetHMFSParticle(13)->fP;
// Get the pion
TLorentzVector Ppip = event->GetHMFSParticle(211)->fP;
}}}
We should now write a helper function in the `FitUtils` namespace to get E^rec^,,ν,, from the muon, pion and neutrino `TLorentzVector`s. [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1605.07964v2.pdf The paper] specifies the exact form in equation 1. The `FitUtils` implementation lives in `src/Utils/FitUtils.cxx`.
{{{
double FitUtils::EnuCC1piprec(TLorentzVector pnu, TLorentzVector pmu, TLorentzVector ppi) {
// The muon energy, momentum and mass
double E_mu = pmu.E() / 1000.;
double p_mu = pmu.Vect().Mag() / 1000.;
double m_mu = sqrt(E_mu * E_mu - p_mu * p_mu);
// The pion energy, momentum and mass
double E_pi = ppi.E() / 1000.;
double p_pi = ppi.Vect().Mag() / 1000.;
double m_pi = sqrt(E_pi * E_pi - p_pi * p_pi);
// The relevant angles
double th_nu_pi = pnu.Vect().Angle(ppi.Vect());
double th_nu_mu = pnu.Vect().Angle(pmu.Vect());
double th_pi_mu = ppi.Vect().Angle(pmu.Vect());
// Now write down the derived neutrino energy
// assuming the initial state nucleon is at rest
// and we only have a pion, muon and nucleon in the final state
double rEnu = (m_mu * m_mu + m_pi * m_pi - 2 * m_n * (E_pi + E_mu) + 2 * E_pi * E_mu -
2 * p_pi * p_mu * cos(th_pi_mu)) /
(2 * (E_pi + E_mu - p_pi * cos(th_nu_pi) - p_mu * cos(th_nu_mu) - m_n));
return rEnu;
};
}}}
Once we have the helper function implemented and tested we go back to the `FillEventVariables(FitEvent *event)` implementation and simply do
{{{
double Enu = FitUtils::EnuCC1piprec(Pnu, Pmu, Ppip);
fXVar = Enu;
return;
}}}
and `FillEventVariables(FitEvent *event)` is done!
[=#point_signaldef]
== Specifying a signal definition ==
The implementation of our new sample now just needs a signal definition.
The base class function `MeasurementBase::Reconfigure()` specifies `isSignal(FitEvent *)` which is what we will implement in our class. Since we plan on re-using the signal definition for multiple distributions, we should include it in the `src/T2K/T2K_SignalDef.cxx` implementation, as mentioned [#point_signal earlier].
Reading the [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1605.07964v2.pdf paper], we see the two requirements:
"The CC1π^+^cross section is described by the particles leaving the nucleus, i.e. one muon, one positive pion and any number of nucleons" (
and
"The analysis presented restricts the kinematic phase-space to the region defined by p,,µ,, > 200 MeV/c, p,,π,,^+^ > 200 MeV/c, cos(θ,,µ,,) > 0.3 and cos(θ,,π+,, ) > 0.3."
so our signal definition needs to extract these quantities from the `FitEvent` object and perform the selection upon them.
We prefer a clear unambiguous naming scheme, so let's name the namespace function `isCC1pip_T2K_H2O`. The function will need to take the `FitEvent` object along with the `EnuMin` and `EnuMax` defined in the experiment signal definition.
We can use already declared functions of the namespace `SignalDef`: these live in `src/Utils/SignalDef.cxx`. We can see a `SignalDef::isCC1pi(FitEvent *, int nuPDG, int piPDG, double EnuMin, double EnuMax)`, which looks promising. This helper function searches for:
* 1 single lepton of type `nuPDG-1`
* 1 single pion of type `piPDG`
* makes sure the neutrino energy is between `EnuMin` and `EnuMax`
We can then add our kinematic phase-space requirements on the muon and pion in our `SignalDef::isCC1pip_T2K_H2O(FitEvent *event, double EnuMin, double EnuMax` implementation in `src/T2K/T2K_SignalDef.cxx`.
In summary, we get for `src/T2K/T2K_SignalDef.cxx`:
{{{
namespace SignalDef {
// T2K H2O signal definition
bool isCC1pip_T2K_H2O(FitEvent *event, double EnuMin,
double EnuMax) {
if (!isCC1pi(event, 14, 211, EnuMin, EnuMax)) return false;
TLorentzVector Pnu = event->GetHMISParticle(14)->fP; // Can also use FitEvent::GetNeutrinoIn()
TLorentzVector Pmu = event->GetHMFSParticle(13)->fP;
TLorentzVector Ppip = event->GetHMFSParticle(211)->fP;
double p_mu = FitUtils::p(Pmu) * 1000;
double p_pi = FitUtils::p(Ppip) * 1000;
double cos_th_mu = cos(FitUtils::th(Pnu, Pmu));
double cos_th_pi = cos(FitUtils::th(Pnu, Ppip));
if (p_mu <= 200 || p_pi <= 200 || cos_th_mu <= 0.3 || cos_th_pi <= 0.3) {
return false;
}
return true;
};
}
}}}
Then back in `src/T2K/T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu.cxx` we simply do:
{{{
//********************************************************************
// Beware: The H2O analysis has different signal definition to the CH analysis!
bool T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu::isSignal(FitEvent *event) {
//********************************************************************
return SignalDef::isCC1pip_T2K_H2O(event, EnuMin, EnuMax);
}
}}}
making sure our [#point_header header file] has `#include "T2K_SignalDef.h"`.
= Add the sample to the CMake process =
`CMake` is incredibly easy and versatile and the only modification you need to make is in `src/T2K/CMakeLists.txt`.
You simply need to add the implementation files to the `set(IMPLFILES` list and the header files to the `set(HEADERFILES`.
'''What to do:'''
* Add `T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu.cxx` and `T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1DEnuMB_nu.cxx` to `set(IMPLFILES`
* Add `T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu.h` and `T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1DEnuMB_nu.h` to `set(HEADERFILES`
= Make NUISANCE aware of the sample =
Now we've got all we need to include the sample in NUISANCE. The full implementation is listed at the [#point_fullimp bottom of this page] for reference.
As mentioned earlier, NUISANCE loads samples through `src/FCN/SampleList.cxx` and specifically `bool SampleUtils::LoadSample`. We need to add our new sample to this long `if else` statement, making sure we string compare to the name set [#point_naming previously].
'''What to do:'''
Add in
{{{
/*
T2K CC1pi+ H2O samples
*/
} else if (!name.compare("T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1DEnuMB_nu")) {
fChain->push_back(new T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1DEnuMB_nu(file, rw, type, fkdt));
} else if (!name.compare("T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu")) {
fChain->push_back(new T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu(file, rw, type, fkdt));
}
}}}
after the last T2K entry.
Also add the relevant header files for the new samples in the `src/FCN/SampleList.h`:
{{{
// T2K CC1pi+ on H2O
#include "T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1DEnuMB_nu.h"
#include "T2K_CC1pip_H2O_XSec_1Dpmu_nu.h"
}}}
= Recompiling NUISANCE with the new sample =
Since we've added files to the `CMakeList.txt` we need to reprocess the makefiles produced by CMake. This is done by:
{{{
$ mkdir -p build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
}}}
We can then proceed as usual by cleaning the make, sourcing our environment and making the project:
{{{
$ make clean
$ source $uname/setup.sh
$ make -j
$ make docs
$ make install
}}}
If all is well we exit without any errors and we can proceed to making predictions for our new sample in NUISANCE.

= What about 2D distributions? =
2D distributions follow a similar implementation pattern: find a suitable set of base-class functions to use in the constructor, specify the `FillEventVariables` and `isSignal`, and make additions to the signal definition (`SignalDef`) and utility (`FitUtils`) namespaces.
You'll have to add the new sample to the CMake process just like in the 1D case, and add the sample into the `SampleList`.
