Photon radiation in single top

You need to go to something like

> p p > l+ vl b j a

Thanks Olivier.

I tried a similar approach, but it results in diagrams without top quark.

Yes, I'm not sure you can force to always have a top in gauge invariant way:

I tried the syntax
check p p > t > l+ vl b j a

and this is not gauge invariant (and as a consequence the result is not lorentz invariant0
(see details below)

So you will need to play with diagram filtering in order to keep a subset of gauge invariant diagram.
such that your computation is meaningfull.

Thanks Olivier Mattelaer, that solved my question.

Sorry, just a quick follow-up question. Is it possible to run the 'check' together with --diagram_filter in order to validate the gauge invariance of the event generation when removing diagrams?

I do not think so.

Cheers,

Olivier
