Draft: Sherpa 3.0 validation setups

Hello Sherpa experts @fsiegert, @cgutscho, @ebachman, @mbuhring,

As discussed with Erik offline, could you please take a look at the Sherpa 3 validation jOs in this MR and try to make gridpacks? The idea is to complete the usual set of validation jOs so we can finalise the validation of Sherpa 3.0.1 in AGENE-2217. Currently what we have in the validation suite is:

Sh2 DSID Sh2 jO name Sh3 DSID Sh3 jO name
950522 Sh_2212_Wmv_EnhLogMaxHTpTV_valid 950748 Sh_300_Wmv_EnhLogMaxHTpTV_valid
950524 Sh_2212_Zee_valid 950749 Sh_300_Zee_valid
950525 Sh_2212_eegamma_pty_35_70_valid 950750 Sh_300_eegamma_pty_35_70_valid
950521 Sh_2212_WWW_3l3v_EW6_valid 950856 (this MR) Sh_30_WWW_3l3v_EW6_valid
950523 Sh_2212_WqqZll_valid 950855 (this MR) Sh_30_WqqZll_valid
950526 Sh_2212_llvv_valid 950853 (this MR) Sh_30_llvv_valid
950527 Sh_2212_ttbar_dilepton_MEPS_NLO_valid 950854 (this MR) Sh_30_ttbar_dilepton_MEPS_NLO_valid

For the validation of Sherpa 3.0.1, it's proposed to compare these Sherpa 3 samples with the Sherpa 2216 samples made in AGENE-2281 with the 2212 jOs listed here (although we might expect differences from the major version change).

I made the new jOs based on the Sherpa 3.0.1 manual and tried to get as close as possible to the 2212 jOs, but didn't test them. Could you please check in particular:

  • Are the process definitions correct
  • Are the orders the same as in the corresponding Sherpa 2 jOs
  • Are the scale settings similar except where there are improvements in Sherpa 3
  • Do they run

I'd like to add a minimum bias jO later on so that we can better track changes of the UE parameters.

Many thanks, Ynyr
