Higgs production via gluon fusion problem

Hi,

You can do it via
import model heft
generate g g > h

This use EFT approximation obviously.
If you want the full loop computation with full mass effect,
then yes this is not possible with your version and you need to update.

Cheers,

Olivier

Hi Olivier,

Thanks for your prompt response. When I tried to update my version, this message showed up:

Error detected in "install update"
write debug file MG5_debug
If you need help with this issue please contact us on https://answers.launchpad.net/madgraph5
MadGraph5Error : This version of MG5 doesn't support auto-update. Common reasons are:
             1) This version was loaded via bazaar (use bzr pull to update instead).
             2) This version is a beta release of MG5.

Does that mean that I need to install everything from scratch if I want to use the latest version?

Thanks Olivier Mattelaer, that solved my question.
