Segmentation error when computing decay widths

Asked by Seán Mee

Dear Olivier,

I have implemented a model file for a model of my interest. I compute decay widths via this model file. The decay widths include two and three body decays of particles. While I can compute the two and three body widths separately, if I instead generate first the two body processes, and then add the three body processes, I get a segmentation error computing these all at once.

Moreover, this problem seems to arise on our end for Mac OS and Ubuntu, but not on a centOS cluster. The traceback is given below:

Why do you have MLM activated for a width computation?
I guess that this might be the issue. Could you retry while setting
ickkw to zero.

I guess that I should adapt the automatic run_card to avoid MLM merging while doing 1>N process.
Obviously, typically such type of computation is done via the automatic tools that we have put in place and therefore such issue is not present. ( see 1402.1178)

Cheers,

Olivier
