generating u b > d t process

Asked by Steven Jeremies

Hi everyone,

I am just getting started with madgraph and initially wanted to compare my calculated matrix element of the W exchange process
u b > d t .
I tried to generate it as follows:

>> generate u b~ > d t~ QED=2

and received the error "No amplitudes generated from process Process: u b~ > d t~ QED=2 @1. Please enter a valid process."

Can anyone please help me correcting my input?

If you want u b > d t, why do you ask u b~ > d t~?

Thanks Olivier Mattelaer, that solved my question.
