Trying to get two Z bosons to decay differently

Hi Alex,

The correct syntax is
generate p p > y, (y > z z, z > l+ l-, z > j j)

Cheers,

Olivier

PS: generate p p > y > z z, z > l+ l-, z > j j will also give you the same diagrams but this is less safe for the gauge invariant/ physical point of view
since you don't have cut on the invariant mass of the y.
