PileupReweightingTool

This package provides the pileup correction for MC. The correction comes in the form of an event weight based on the average number of interactions <mu>. This tool needs two input hisograms: <mu> for data and MC. These histograms are fetched during the setup. The data input histogram can be also created with iLumiCalc. This will look slightly different from that linked to the official twiki. The explanation for this plus further infos on the official page here.
