Top decay and 4 Fermion operators

Either they are no interference or you use a wrong syntax.
So what syntax did you use?

Cheers,

Everything runs fine but there is no interference term between the SM diagrams and 4 fermion operators. The decay width has the SM part and contribution from 4 fermion operators which go as 1/Lambda^4. The 1/Lambda^2 term is missing.

Okay, here it is

define l+ = l+ ta+
generate t > b j j QED<=99
add process t > b l+ vl QED<=99
output madevent
launch

So here you do not have any interference between

and

None are possible anyway in this case since the final state is not the same.

But otherwise, you will have all interference term included within each of those two computation.

Yeah each of the individual processes should have interference terms and should be getting it using

Inteference = Total width - SM width - NP width.

This value should go over as 1/Lambda^2 which is not happening. Let me check in case i am missing any diagrams.

But thank you !!

Best,
Kuntal

I tried it and the output for the width is close to my expectation. But what is this warning all about?

Computation of interference term with decay is not 100% validated.
                Please check carefully your result.
                One suggestion is also to compare the generation of your process with and without
                set group_subprocesses True
                (to write Before the generate command)

Thanks,
Kuntal

Thanks Olivier Mattelaer, that solved my question.
