problem with pythia model import
I am generating the signal events for a BSM model that I have developed. It works at partonic level with no problem and physically it makes sense. But when it comes to showering and hadronization, pythia gives me an error and does not accept any lhe events because it says that it does not understand pdg code of intermediatory particle (e5 with PDG=13000). I have appended the log file.
What can be the source of this problem? I have already imported UFO files of model in madgraph event generation and it does work with madevent, but pythia has problem with linking with madgraph to get this information about particles that are not included in SM. I checked other BSM models and pythia works.
Here is the last part of pythia log file:
