Hi Kerstin,
sorry I missed the reading... for DQG-related reasons...
Anyway, here are some replies to your questions:

Hmmm, I guess it's my fault, for not changing the selector in our
VubXlnuPhysics.tcl. I'm afraid it's a little too late to change that right now, at
least in time for the review process.

Yes. It's defined by the following line in BRecoilUser/BRecoilCandidatesProcs.tcl:
lappend config {GoodTracksVisibleESelection docaMax 1.5 }
That's in centimeters.

We are using tweaking; for the systematics we are doing what we did last year,
that is the percentages of killing are defined in VubXlnu.tcl by the lines:
# set ElectronKilling 0.02
# set MuonKilling 0.03
# set KKilling 0.02
# set ElectronMisIdKilling 0.15
# set MuonMisIdKilling 0.15
# set KMisIdKilling 0.15

Right. If we have a date for the AWG reading, it will be easier to decide.
All the best,
Roberto
