Gluon-fusion heft + jets with MG5
Dear Madgraph experts,
I have a naive question about gluon-fusion higgs production
with madgraph heft model.
I am trying to generate samples with a gluon-fusion produced
Higgs in a 2HDM and I have combined 2HDM and heft models.
The question is nevertheless irrelevant to the 2HDM part and concerns only heft.
I was wondering what is the difference between doing simply
(A)
generate g g > H
and
(B)
generate g g > H
add process g g > H j
(where j is a jet).
In particular I would like information about the following:
(1) I will use in the end Pythia for hadronization anyways and I will get
jets. If so what is the advantage of using (B) over (A)? If there is no
advantage, then is there any advantage of using Madgraph with (A) + Pythia for
hadronization vs using Pythia all the way through?
(2) Is it recommended to use gluon-fusion + jets under heft? I mean is it
known for instance that there is a huge difference if you compare it with
the full calculation, so we should avoid using heft?
Thank you very much for your time, it is highly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Nikos
