Warning when generating photon+1/2j with aMC@NLO
Hi,
I am generating the following process:
generate p p > a j [QCD] @0
add process p p > a j j [QCD] @1
and adding a cut on the photon pt, in order to have binned samples: 100 - 250 GeV, 250 - 400 GeV, 400 - 650 GeV, and > 650 GeV.
Everything seems to run fine, but at the end of the output I see the following:

Something similar (different subprocess) happens for all pt bins, except for the 250 - 400 bin. Do you have an idea what the problem is and if this means I can not use the generated samples? Thanks.
Cheers,
Isa
