Enable durham kt cut

Asked by Alec Drobac

I am receiving errors when I try to enable a durham kt cut. My setup is the following:
 - Version 2.7.3. (I have also tried with 2.7.2 and the v3 beta)
 - install boost, lahpdf6, pythia8 (in that order)

Then I launch MG with ./bin/mg5_aMC and do the following:

generate p p > z, z > e+ e-
output zeeDurham
launch zeeDurham
2 (to open run_card.dat)
 - Here I add the following lines:
#*********************************************************************
# Apply pt/E/eta/dr/mij/kt_durham cuts on decay products or not
# (note that etmiss/ptll/ptheavy/ht/sorted cuts always apply)
#*********************************************************************
   False = cut_decays ! Cut decay products
   ## WHAT I ADDED##
   0 = xqcut
   30d0 = ktdurham ! minimum durham kt jet measure between partons
   0.4 = dparameter ! D parameter for hadronic kT
   T = dokt ! T: enable durham kt cut
   ##############
3 (to open pythia8_card.dat)
  - Set Merging:Process = pp>(z>e+e-)

Doing this gives me the following error:

When I comment out the T = dokt line, the generation runs fine, so it does seem to be a problem with just that line. I also tried replacing
T = dokt ! T: enable durham kt cut
with
T = do_kt_durham ! T: enable durham kt cut
and doing so also causes the generation to fail, but with a different error:

Looking at examples of others enabling durham kt cuts, I am not seeing any differences in the syntax I'm using, so I am wondering if there are some other options I need to also be setting. Apologies if I am missing something basic, but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
 - Alec

Sorry for the late reply,

You just need to set the value of
ktdurham
to a value different of -1

They are no "dokt" parameter define in the run_card.

I would suggest in this case to generate your process like
generate p p > z, z > e+ e-
add process p p > z j , z > e+ e-
This should change the content of the default run_card to include section for MLM (activated by default) and for CKKW.
You can use that run_card for the "generate p p > z, z > e+ e-" case.

Cheers,

Olivier
