    99==== Generating a new !FeynArts model with FeynRules ====

    11 The !FeynRules interface to !FeynArts enables the user to write out a !FeynArts model file for is new physics model just by knowing the lagrangian and the !FeynRules model file. As the syntax of the !FeynRules model files is similar to the one used in !FeynArts, most of the information is just copied from one model file to the other.In addition, the !FeynArts model file contains the object {{{M$CouplingMatrices}}}, which contains all the interactions and vertices for this model.

    1313The !FeynArts interface is called via the command
    14 {{{{{{WriteFeynArtsOutput[L1, L2, L3,..., options]}}}}}}
    15 
    16 where {{{L1}}}, {{{L2}}}, {{{L3}}}, ... denote the lagrangians which should be used to calculate Feynman rules from. {{{WriteFeynArtsOutput}}} shares all the options of {{{FeynmanRules}}}. In addition, it has thefollowing two options:
    17    * {{{Output}}}: The name of the !FeynArts model file written. The default is {{{M$ModelName}}} with the extension ".mod" appended.
    18    * {{{CouplingRename}}}: Whether to rename vertices with a new name and store the definitions in {{{M$FACouplings}}}. The default is {{{True}}}.

    21 This creates the !FeynArts model file {{{file.mod}}} in the current working directory. This model file can then be copied to the !FeynArts =/Model/= subdirectory, and the model can be used in the usual way.
