MultiWorkspaceLikelihoodScan

Many analyses do not have a continuous model of the likelihood as a function of their parameter of interest. Often times, high mass searches and similar analyses who do not have such a model need to resort to a simple solution: They create one workspace for every (Higgs mass) scenario. In that series of workspaces, they then fit the likelihood tot he observed data and ultimately retrieve a single number from each of these fits -- the likelihood value. Given the POI (higgs mass) values associated to these input workspaces, those values can then be combined into something resembling a proper likelihood scan.

Usage:

+MultiWorkspaceLikelihoodScan {
  +Run1 {
    +cosa {
      +ggHcosa000 { <cosa=0.> }
      +ggHcosa005 { <cosa=.05> }
      +ggHcosa006 { <cosa=.06> }
      +ggHcosa008 { <cosa=.08> }
      +ggHcosa010 { <cosa=.10> }
      +ggHcosa012 { <cosa=.12> }
      +ggHcosa015 { <cosa=.15> }
      +ggHcosa020 { <cosa=.20> }
      +ggHcosa025 { <cosa=.25> }
      +ggHcosa030 { <cosa=.30> }
      +ggHcosa035 { <cosa=.35> }
      +ggHcosa040 { <cosa=.40> }
      +ggHcosa045 { <cosa=.45> }
      +ggHcosa050 { <cosa=.50> }
      +ggHcosa055 { <cosa=.55> }
