Generating events with QED loop
Hello MadGraph experts,
I am new to MadGraph and I am interested in calculating the EWK loop contribution of a p p > W Z process.
Since aMC@NLO v2.8 doesn't support QED at NLO accuracy, I understand (and I would appreciate it if you could verify this) that I could generate loop-induced processes using the [noborn=QED] tag.
My setup is as follows:
set complex_mass_scheme
import model loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu
generate p p > w+ z QCD=0 [noborn=QED]
The diagrams are mostly what I am after (except those for the Goldstone bosons and the ghost particles)
When I ``launch`` the output is pasted as below:
Generating 10000 events with run name run_01
survey run_01
INFO: compile directory
initMadLoop -r -f
Initializing MadLoop loop-induced matrix elements (this can take some time)...

After this, the process stalls and when I manually quit, I get the error:

I was hoping if you could shed light on this problem, and would appreciate your advice if this is the direction to take if one wants to calculate the QED/EWK loop effects and generate events of such a process.
Thanks a lot for the help!
