Description

Hi,

I recently came across a thread on DelphesPythia8 (https://cp3.irmp.ucl.ac.be/projects/delphes/ticket/402)
while searching for a way to pipe the output of pythia straight to delphes without having to go through an intermediate step of writing out a large file.
I can't seem to find any instructions on how to run the DelphesPythia8.cc module. Could someone point me to them?

Thanks!
Sarah

Hi Sarah,

I don't think that we have any specific instructions for DelphesPythia8.

In the latest Delphes version, DelphesPythia8 is not built by default, because some Delphes users had problems when it was built by default.

The command to build DelphesPythia8 is

make HAS_PYTHIA8=true

Normally, it works with the latest versions of Pythia8 and Delphes.

The command to run it is

./DelphesPythia8 config_file.tcl pythia_card.cmnd output_file.root

Cheers,

Pavel
