details in products decay

Asked by lichangqiao999@gmail.com

I'm running a process in both Madgraph5 and Whizard, and I compare the cross sections form them.But they don't match.
One of the possible reasons may be cuts in decay products of Madgraph5.
In run_card.dat(in Madgraph):
#**********************************************************
# Apply pt/E/eta/dr/mij cuts on decay products or not
# (note that etmiss/ptll/ptheavy/ht/sorted cuts always apply)
#**********************************************************
   T = cut_decays ! Cut decay products
Can you provide the details in these pt/E/eta/dr/mij cuts?
And etmiss/ptll/ptheavy/ht/sorted cuts?

Hi,

What do you want to know?
The value associated to those variables are defined (and explained if not trivial) in the run_card.
What do you not understand?

Cheers,

Olivier
