Edit ma_card of MadAnalysis installed in Madgraph

Asked by sudesh gupta

Hi

I want to script mg5_amc given as below,

  generate p p > t t~ j
    output pp_ttj
    launch pp_ttj
       set ebeam1 7000
      set ebeam2 7000
  set mt scan:[160,162,164,166,168,170]
   launch -i
       print_results --path=./myresult_top.txt --format=short

I also want some specific plots which I can not demand from this script. I was trying to edit ma_card of MadAnalysis but it is not picking those specific plots. Am I missing somthing?

Hi,

With the scan command " set mt scan:[160,162,164,166,168,170]"
you automatically have an equivalent of the command " print_results --path=./myresult_top.txt --format=short" executed so you do not need to use that command in that case (but you can obviously since the format is not exactly the same: the automatic one includes the value of the top mass as one column while the explicit command does not).

For the madanalysis_card, the easiest is likely to do the following:
 generate p p > t t~ j
    output pp_ttj
    launch pp_ttj
analysis=MadAnalysis5
       set ebeam1 7000
      set ebeam2 7000
  set mt scan:[160,162,164,166,168,170]
  /path/to/my/ma5_card.dat

CHeers,
