File with 0 momentum and mass (tW channel)

Can you check the lhe file.
We do not produce root file ourself.
So the first step is to check if our lhe file is correct or not.
If it is, I would need to know how you create your root file in order to be able to comment.

Cheers,

Olivier

The LHEF shows the same issue, and then I simply use ExRootAnalysis to convert to the root file

Hi,

First the command:
> import model loop-sm_no-b-mass
does not correspond to any know model.
So I have try with
> import model loop_sm-no_b_mass
If this is not the model that you are using, please send me your model such that I can reproduce your run

Therefore I have run the following script:

> import model loop_sm-no_b_mass
> generate p p > t w-, w- > mu- vm~
> add process p p > t~ w+, w+ > mu+ vm
> output

I put below some of the events that are produced:

so here top mass is 173, the muon mass is indeed zero (as it should since the above model assumes zero mass for the muon)
Here is a second where you can see the same:

So I can not reproduce your error.

One wild guess is that you are using a code of reshuffling restoring the muon mass (do you?) in that case, this might be what the problem is.
