How to run NLO EW for lepton collisions

Asked by BruceLee

I want to calculate NLO EW corrections for lepton collisions at MG5, so I followed the guidance of https://answers.launchpad.net/mg5amcnlo/+faq/3324.
I have install the eMELA with the MG5 command install eMELA, and set the pdlabel = emela.
However I still can't run the process e+ e- > w+ w- [QED] at MG5, after launch auto, it return the following error:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/bruce/Software/MG5/MG5_aMC_v3.5.1/MG5_aMC_v3_5_1/HEPTools/EMELA/share/eMELA/pdfsets.index'
It seems that emela also needs a pdfset.index like LHAPDF, but I can't find the share file or the pdfsets.index in the default installed directory of emela.
Sometimes, I can run the NLO EW + LL for the above process with the pdlabel = isronlyll, sometimes it failes.
So I want to how to calculate the NLO EW corrections for lepton collisions at MG5, and the NLOEW +LL mode is correct or not ?

Here is my log file.

Hi,
you need to download separately the grids of eMELA and extract them in the directory.
The PDFlist is included in that tarball.
Let me know

I am appreciated for your answer。
I have reload mg5 after downloading the grids tarball and extracting them into the directory"MG5_aMC_v3_5_1/HEPTools/EMELA/share/eMELA".
However, there are still some errors:
/test_soft_col_limits: error while loading shared libraries: libeMELA.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
./check_poles: error while loading shared libraries: libeMELA.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
./gensym: error while loading shared libraries: libeMELA.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
And launch ends with non zero status: 127

And I have find that I can run NLO EW corrections for the process e+e->w+w- [QED]and e+e->zz[QED] with pdflabel set to the isronlyll or other choice provided at section6 of 2108.10261, with the loop_qcd_qed_sm-with_b_mass and loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu_with_b_mass. If I import the model loop_qcd_qed_sm and loop_qcd_qed_sm_Gmu, the above options failed.
I am a little confused with the above phenomena, and i am looking forward to your advice.

Hi,
have you compiled eMELA with the static libraries?
you need to add the
-DSHARED=OFF -DWITH_LHAPDF=ON
flags when you run cmake

Cheers,

Marco

I have installed eMELA wit MG5 command "install eMELA". I have checked the installEMELA.sh in "MG5_aMC_v3_5_1/HEPTools/HEPToolsInstallers", it seem that the eMELA was not compiled with the static libraries, it was compiled with the following commands:
${CMAKEPATH}/bin/cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$INSTALLD -DWITH_LHAPDF=ON -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-L $LHAPDFPATH/lib/ -lLHAPDF -I $LHAPDFPATH/include -I $BOOSTPATH" #- DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON

I will recompile eMELA with static libraries, and run the above process again.

Thanks a lot.

I have update the heptools installer package to add the flag "-DSHARED=OFF"
such that the install emela would have that flag by default (might need 1h for all the miror to be updated)
