NLO EFT model error during shower

Asked by Sahibjeet Singh

Hi MG5 experts,

I am trying to run a model (SMEFT@NLO - http://feynrules.irmp.ucl.ac.be/wiki/SMEFTatNLO) on MG5. MG seems to generate the events however during the showering step it gives an error:

"Command "launch auto " interrupted with error:
KeyError : 'id (1,) is not in sminputs'
Please report this bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/mg5amcnlo
More information is found in '/Users/sahibjeetsingh/Desktop/cern/MG5_aMC_v2_6_6/test_NLOEFT/run_04_tag_1_debug.log'.
Please attach this file to your report."

Here is the corresponding log file:

Hi,

Thanks for the report,
a patch already exists for this issue, I have linked this question to the associated bug report.

Another work around is to edit the param_card to include by hand the missing parameter (1/aEW which should be in the sminputs block entry number 1)

Cheers,

Olivier
