The code we are using for the unfolding is in void VirClass::UnfHistos(int mult) and void VirClass::MultCorr(), both located in VirUtil.icc. But in principle, the same code could be used for BRBR, but it needed to be moved to another place and disentangled from the unfolding specific things - i.e. it would need to be done ealier in the process I guess. At this point only the MC we are using for the unfolding itself (not for the background subtraction) is reweighted. But it should not require too much work to make this usable for the BRBR as well. There is another point - we have not yet had a second look at how we define the multiplicity categories. That is still on our to-do-list. The one implemented currently are the BAD 540 categories. Daniele suggested these should be revisited and category definition should be based on underlying physics.
