Sorry, the answer is probably obsolete now, but this is caused by the crystallball pdf. The PDF is poorly designed, and hence hard to fit, iminuit cannot help or hurt here. I always recommend the student's t, and if you need something asymmetric, the non-central student's t distribution. |

I'm trying to fit a Z-peak with an extended binned maximum likelihood. My workflow is this:
My data are binned in bins from 50 to 130 GeV.
In the end, I'm getting a fit that looks okay like this:
but the minimum is not valid and all the minos profiles look very jagged and not smooth at all.
The fit also appears to be extremely senstive to starting values for the parameters. I have two questions regarding this.
