To make these simulated data comparable with the collision data, pile-up events are added to the simulated event in this step.
The pile-up dataset is:
/MinBias_TuneZ2star_8TeV-pythia6/Summer12-START50_V13-v3/GEN-SIM
How were these data validated?
The generation and simulation of simulated Monte Carlo data has been validated through general CMS validation procedures.
How can you use these data?
You can access these data through the CMS Virtual Machine. See the instructions for setting up the Virtual Machine and getting started in
