Install Pythia8.3 under MadGraph?

Asked by Qiji Xin

Hi,

I installed Pythia under the latest version of MadGraph (3.1.0), using "install pythia8". However, I found that the Pythia version installed is pythia8.2 (8.244).
So is there a way to install the latest pythia8.3 under MadGraph and interface it with MadGraph?

Thanks!

Pythia 8.3 is not fully compatible with Mg5aMC interface.
The Pythia8 author have to fix stuff and therefore this is not working so far.

Cheers,

Olivier
