tttj at NLO

Asked by qamarulhassan

Dear folks,

I am trying to generate tttj process in NLO.

import model loop_sm-no_b_mass
generate p p > t t t~ j aS=2 aEW=2 [QCD]
add process p p > t t~ t~ j aS=2 aEW=2 [QCD]

When I launch output directory, with
order = NLO
fixed_order = OFF
shower = HERWIG6
madspin = ON

After some time I get an error[1].

I also have some messages like:
INFO: The value for lhapdf in the current configuration does not correspond to a valid executable.
Please set it correctly either in input/mg5_configuration or with "set lhapdf /path/to/lhapdf-config" and regenrate the process.
To avoid regeneration, edit the /home/qamar/software/MG5_aMC_v3_4_0/tttj_NLO/Cards/amcatnlo_configuration.txt file.
Note that you can still compile and run aMC@NLO with the built-in PDFs

Is this is the cause or anything else?
Any extra information?

Thanks
Qamar

Hi,
the problem is very similar to the one of VBF, for which you need to disable pole check as EW loops are not included.
