The ww>h process in muon collider is ending up with an error

Asked by Navneeth C

Whenever I try to generate the process w+ w- > h at the muon collider, the run is getting terminated with the following error and I am unable to find out the crossection. I am still in the learning phase of MadGraph, so pardon me if I did something wrong in the commands

the error:

Hi,

It does not make sense to ask for
"ww>h"
at muon collider, indeed the EWA approximation only work of sqrts>1TeV and the Higgs mass is much smaller than such limit.

Cheers,

Olivier

Thanks a lot for the prompt response

So, these are the commands i gave -

generate w+ w- > h
output muoncollider
launch muoncollider

then i edited the runcard

set ebeam1 1500
set ebeam2 1500
set lpp1 -4
set lpp2 4

Is there anything to add or what may be the issue that is causing those errors?
My goal is to obtain SM Higgs Boson production cross sections at muon collider for various energies. So for that what are all the commands should I give and is there any models that I should import, like the heft?

WW -> H
ZZ -> H

Cross sections of these are required

Hi,

Your process is kinematically impossible:
Indeed, let assume that each muon beam give you a "W" at rest (the smallest amount of energy possible)
in that case the center of mass energy is 2*MW which is too large to produce a Higgs on-shell (which should be MH< a*MW).

Independently of the fact that such process is kinematically possible (or not), in order to use the PDF approximation of the "W", you need that sqrts (not sqrt) being at least one TeV (otherwise the approximation does not make sense). In your process sqrts=mh=125 which is too small (and this does not depend of the energy of your collider).

So you need to change your process, maybe to something like
mu+ mu- > vm vm~ h
(likely with lpp set to 0)

Cheers,

Olivier

Thanks for the explanation. mu+ mu- > vm vm~ h works!

Can you please share the commands for the below listed processes at the muon collider? ( I need to find out cross section for various energies)

σ(fb):WW→H
 ZZ→H
 WW→HH
 ZZ→HH
 WW→ZH
 WW→t¯ tH
 WW→Z
 WW→ZZ

Hi, can you please guide me through this? It's for my masters thesis.

you should draw the feynman diagrams yourself and see what your initial states are (in this case though mu+ mu-) and what your final states are and give those to madgraph syntaxes.

You already have
WW->H : mu+ mu- > vm vm~ h

as a pointer i can give you some examples but obviously i didn't run them myself so it's up to you to check whether the diagrams you get are really the ones you intended to have (look at ps files in your <Output>/SubProcesses/PX_XX_XXXX directories, X are the initial and final state particle dependent)

ZZ->H : mu+ mu- > mu+ mu- h
WW->ZZ : mu+ mu- > vm vm~ z z

Thanks Sihyun Jeon, that solved my question.
