2. Systematics treatment
GLoBES uses pull method:
Example: Signal/background normalization errors
Pre-defined systematics, „rule-based“
User-defined systematics; e.g. for syst. correlated among different detectors, ND systems Examples in literature: Superbeams (Xsec, …): Huber, Mezzetto, Schwetz, Reactor exps. (flux,…): Huber et al, hep-ph/ NuFact (Xsec, …): Tang, Winter, Requires some coding (… see example in GLoBES manual)
(Fogli et al, 2002)

3. On energy smearing Automatic energy smearing, e.g.,
Manual energy smearing by migration matrix
Migration matrix to be specified in AEDL (experiment definition file)
Not new, has been used in the past. Example: WBB-WC simulation Barger et al, hep-ph/ E‘
