Delphes does not detect photons.

Asked by daniel camargo

Hi everyone,

I was running MG5 2.1.2 to generate two photons and a pair b b~ as a final state. And then, doing the showering with Pythia and then the detector simulation with Delphes. The plots of the Pythia level are ok in that appear the expected photons, but at the Delphes level the photons disappear. I already try installing Delphes, Delphes 2 and Delphes 3 but without difference on the plots .

I run my model_UFO in other computer and Delphes work ok, so the problem apparently is with my Delphes.

Thanks in advance for any comment about this issue.

Cheers,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

First let me thank you to have answer another question, I appreciate this :-)

Concerning your question, this is not the correct forum to ask such question.
So I have copy your question to the Delphes forums:
https://cp3.irmp.ucl.ac.be/projects/delphes/ticket/323

I will probably copy/paste their answer here. But please check that link above and if you want/can please register to their forum and subscribe to the report such that you can have directly the answer.

Cheers,

Olivier
