SubProcesses doesn't have available phase-space. Please check mass spectrum.

Asked by Maikel de Vries

Hi there,

I generate the following event:
define q = d d~ u u~ s s~ c c~ b b~
define qh = dh dh~ uh uh~ sh sh~ ch ch~ bh bh~
generate p p > qh qh, (qh > q gh, gh > q q)

the heavy guys are basically heavy partners of the quark and the gluon.

Then I try to generate this six jet final state, but it ends with:

I checked the mass spectrum, and it allows for the subsequent decays, is there something I am doing wrong?

Hi,

Could you send me by email (omatt at illinois.edu
your model and the param_card that you are using?

Thanks,

Olivier

In fact,
I think that this error is already solved in 1.5.2.
Could you check with the last version of MG5?

Cheers,

Olivier

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll check that in the weekend, if it doesn't work I'll provide you with a more compact example.

Best, Maikel

Is there an easy way to update to the latest version?

install update

only seems to update to stable versions.

If install update fails.
The only way is to re-install MG5 via the download package.

Hi Maikel,

I've run the full computation over the night. And the script pass the point where you observed a bug.
So I will not dig further since as we discussed by email, this is not an efficient way to make the computation.
(It's important to use a model where the mass of the light quark are set to zero).

So please run with that restriction. If you still face problem in that mode, don't hesitate to come back to us.

Cheers,

Olivier

Hello,

Agreed, since the restricted model has no problems I can safely use that.
I'll reopen if I run into the same problems with that model.

Thanks, Maikel
