Thank you Olivier.

Nevertheless at cuts.f I have the variables IS_A_L, IS_A_J, IS_A_A etc

For the cuts on W, I should insert something like IS_A_W

I guess I would need to change something else, beyond just the cuts.f file,
to make Madgraph understanding that the cut is on the W boson.

Please how/where would Madgraph recognize this new variable?

Thank you in advance, Patricia.

Since you have only W in the final states, I would have use the
is_heavy tag.

Otherwise, you can configure the is_a_w tag in
SubProcesses/setcuts.f

Cheers,

Thank you Olivier. I've got the tag "is_heavy" which has solved my problem.
:-)
