// The WeakShowerMEs provides ME's needed for W/Z emission in ISR or FSR.
// The 2 -> 2 MEs contain the correct kinematics, but for some of
// the 2 -> 3 MEs some couplings have been switched off.
// This class is used for ME corrections in the weak shower and for merging
// whenever weak reclusterings are allowed.
// Also be aware that no phase-space factors are included.
