aMCatNLOError : Some tests failed, run cannot continue.
Dear aMC@NLO experts,
I'm willing to calculate NLO EWK correction about pp > w+ w+ w- process.
The LO process of pp > w+ w+ w- has been done successfully. But NLO process pp > w+ w+ w- [QED] has a error at the event generation step (after typing "launch")

Hi Liqing,
the problem is that the widths of the particles are all different from zero in the default param_card.dat, but you did not turn on the complex_mass_scheme (as you can see in your proc_card).
The code set the W width to zero, but it is not enough.
You are performing the calculation in the on-shell scheme, which for WWW production is correct, but you have to set all the widths to zero.
Alternatively you can turn on the complex mass scheme with
set complex_mass_scheme True
and set only the W width to zero. The numerical difference for the two approaches should be negligible.
Unless you are particularly interested in the renormalization of the EW interactions in the alpha(MZ) scheme, I suggest you to import the model
loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu
which employs the Gmu scheme and therefore is better for this process.
I hope this can help you, let me know if you still have problems.
Davide

Hi Davide,
Thanks a lot. it works now.
But I still have two questions:
1> when I import the model of loop_qcd_
import loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu
The import format was not given, so we guess it as proc_v4
ERROR: I/O error on file loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu (2): No such file or directory
Command "import loop_qcd_
"#import proc_v4 loop_qcd_
InvalidCmd : "loop_qcd_
2>It's been 10 hours since I type 'launch', but it's still running. Is this normal?
Best,
Liqing
Hi Liqing,
try
import model loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu
if you do not have the model you need the internet connection for downloading it automatically.
With which precision are you running it and on how many cores?
With the default run_card
0.01 = req_acc_FO
I have
Inclusive timing profile :
Overall slowest channel 0:40:17 (P0_dxu_
Average channel running time 0:17:49
Aggregated total running time 2:22:36
Let me know
Cheers

Hi Davide,
Sorry for the late feedback. I was off line for a long period.
Thanks a lot for your explanation.
Here is a example which is submited two days before. But it’s not finished yet.
The precision I used is 0.01, and the output shows there are 12 cores.
The commands I used are :

The following is the output:
Either type the switch number (1 to 6) to change its setting,
Set any switch explicitly (e.g. type 'madspin=onshell' at the prompt)
Type 'help' for the list of all valid option

Hi Davide,
The problem is solved.
The reason is that I found the Gmu scheme in this file 'models/
And I thought it's equivalent to what you mentioned about the loop_qcd_
After the command ‘import model loop_qcd_
