Returning CP-observables to the frames they belong
J Ackerschott, RK Barman, D Gonçalves, T Heimel… - SciPost Physics, 2024 - scipost.org
Optimal kinematic observables are often defined in specific frames and then approximated
at the reconstruction level. We show how multi-dimensional unfolding methods allow us to …
