The logic has to be inverted to pick up neutrinos and neutralinos (1000022, 1000023, 1000039, or just use charge == 0 && pdgId > 100000?)

Actually this genmet variable is not used anywhere.

amarini commented 9 years ago

Since we are using an acceptance (eta-restriction), genmet should be the opposite of what we observe (not neutrinos), and not the sum of what we don't observe (neutrinos and neutralinos) ... Nevertheless it is not used, so I will comment it out for clarity.
