symmetric diagrams info and interference terms
Dear MG-team:
1- Is there an straight output in a MG run for the symmetric factors of generated diagrams in a process?
2- suppose a simple situation in the MSSM framework two diagrams where two lightest neutralinos(n1) are forced in the final state after passing through a pair of stops (t1\bar{t1}), I will mark one of the neutrlinos with a "*" and I will only keep these two diagrams in the generation and calculation:
Diag_1:
gg->t1\bar{t1}->t n1 \bar{t} n1*
and Diag_2 permutes n1 and n1*
Diag_2:
gg->t1\bar{t1}->t n1* \bar{t} n1
How does MG deals with the squared matrix element of this two symmetric diagrams
|M|^2 = |fact*diag_1 - fact*diag_2|^2
where fact is the symmetry factor (1/2 in my example) or
|M|^2 = fact * |diag_1 - diag_2|^2
3- Secondly, is there a way that I can extract only the contribution of interference of these diagrams to the total xsection?
thanks in advance,
arian
