I wanted to say

Is _f the density function? If so, wouldn't using
Input : _x s cos(theta), _y is differential cross section
      Output : _f cross section
suffice?



No, that's not correct. _x is cos(theta), and _y is the c.m. energy. It's a 2-dimensional function. _f is the results, and this is (dsigma/d(cos(theta)))(q), i.e. the differential cross section as a function of cos(theta) and q

I have 64 models I will be using. I was assuming I could implement this as


  model1->SetRange(1.77,1.8); 
...
...
...
  model64->SetRange(2.56,2.6);

  model1->AddHistogram(example1,"value = Eval(_x); _f =_y * value");
  makeDistributionManager()->Add(model1);
  ...
  ...
  ...
  model64->AddHistogram(example64,"value = Eval(_x); _f =_y * value");
  makeDistributionManager()->Add(model64);




No, this will not work. Pluto is a sampling event generator. If you use it like this, the first model samples theta and q, the second model overwrites that, and so on...

In the above snipet I use 1 histogram for each model. Each histogram is derived from published data with
_x = Cos(theta)
_y = Differential Cross section




You are using a different convention, this is part of the confusion. _y is the c.m. energy in a 2-dimensional function. If you are using a 1-dimensional histogram, the results should be still mapped on _f, not _y.

The only thing you have to implement is a function _f = F(_x,_y) = F(cos(theta),q)
