  • Abstract
    We present generalizations of the Crystal Ball function to describe mass peaks in which the per-event mass resolution is unknown and marginalized over. The presented probability density functions are tested using a series of toy Monte Carlo samples generated with Pythia and smeared with different amounts of multiple scattering and for different detector resolutions.
