TopEFT Gridpack Creation

Asked by Douglas Burns

Dear Madgraph experts,

I am trying to create some gridpacks for ttbar production using an eft model (dim6top: http://feynrules.irmp.ucl.ac.be/wiki/dim6top).

I am running the process :

p p > t t~ FCNC=0 DIM6=1, (t > w+ b, w+ > wdecay wdecay), (t~ > w- b~ , w- > wdecay wdecay)
where wdecay = g u c d s u~ c~ d~ s~ e+ mu+ tau+ e- mu- tau- ve vm vt ve~ vm~ vt~

I am however running into problems. When trying to create the gridpacks i end up with:

  === Results Summary for run: run_01 tag: tag_1 ===

     Cross-section : 0 +- 0 pb
     Nb of events : 0

before failing with the error:

Command "generate_events " interrupted with error:
IndexError : list index out of range

and in the log file (run_01_tag_1_debug.log):

  File "/scratch/db0268/EFT/TTJetsEFT/process/bin/internal/extended_cmd.py", line 1467, in onecmd

    max_wgt = all_wgt[-1]
IndexError: list index out of range

Looking into some of the SubProcesses logs, I can see that none of the events passed the phase space cuts and it says to loosen cuts or increase max_events. I do not know where to increase the max_events from and the phase space cuts i think are the default ones which work fine with SM ttbar production.

Cheers,
Doug

Hi,

Looks like that the model request you to do something like:
 generate p p > t t~ FCNC=0 DIM6=1, (t > w+ b DIM6=0, w+ > wdecay wdecay DIM6=0), (t~ > w- b~ DIM6=0, w- > wdecay wdecay DIM6=0)

Cheers,

Olivier
