Binned fit using RooDataHist

Dear Experts,

I have a histogram which I would like to fit and finally get its pull distribution.
I am trying to fit this histogram using RooDataHist but I am not able to do it. Looking at the output plot, it looks like I am not even able to read histogram correctly. Here’s what the output looks like:

I am not able to figure out where exactly my mistake is. For your reference, I attach here the complete code that I am using to fit.

Would you please help me.

Thanks in advance,

Hi @sanjeeda,

the problem is at the beginning of your script when you define the variable on the x-axis. You write:

RooRealVar mpipi("d0pi_kpi","", 0.45, 0.45);

The interval from 0.45 to 0.45 is empty, that’s why you got the plot with one bin only.

You need to define the same range you have in your histogram:

RooRealVar mpipi("d0pi_kpi","", 0.45, 0.55);

I hope this fixes the problem! Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Cheers,
Jonas

Dear @jonas,

Thank you so much for the message. It’s really stupid of me to post this. I should have looked more carefully.
