Delphes Card Use

Asked by Savannah Thais

Hi,

I was wondering if the delphes_card_atlas.dat and delphes_card_cms.dat files are actually usable? When I try to mg5+pythai+delphes with one of those copied into the delphes_card.dat file, I get no results from delphes. They seem to be an entirely different structure than the delphes_card_default.dat file as well, so it makes sense why they wouldn't yield results. Am I doing something wrong though?

Those are actually delphes 2card which are only usable when you install delphes 2 (install delphes2).

We keep them for retro compatibility.

Cheers,

Olivier
