    18 The model includes all SMEFT operators at dimension six as well as dimension-eight operators of Classes 2, 3, and 4. Fermionic operators are introduced with no assumptions on flavor and the Yukawa operators and class 5 operators are diagonalized using standard rotations of the Left and Right-handed fermionic fields, resulting in meaningful goldstone-fermion couplings which also incorporate the CKM matrix for charged goldstone interactions. Another appeal of the model is that it incorporates field and mass redefinitions coming from the SMEFT to order 1/Lambda^4, this is to the authors knowledge the only package incorporating these effects. As order 1/Lambda^4 effects are frequently included in the literature without incorporating these redefinitions this tool provides an excellent opportunity to study the implications of incomplete calculations. This is discussed in the paper outlining the implementation, arxiv:2011:XXXXX.

Another appeal of the model is that it incorporates field and mass redefinitions coming from the SMEFT to order 1/Lambda^4^. This is to the author's knowledge the only package incorporating these effects.

    2226== Usage ==
    23 This model may be used to derive the Feynman rules in the Feynrules interface as well as for obtaining a model file for usage with Formcalc and Feynarts. The ancillary files demonstrate usage in Feynrules and in the Feynarts/Formcalc workflow in order to obtain the two-point and tadpole amplitudes.

     361. SMEFT_BGFM.zip includes only the files required to derive the Feynman rules and no ancillary files.
     37
     382. SMEFT_BGFM_wAnc.zip includes the files required to derive the Feynman rules, an example Mathematica notebook which selects only n-point rules and creates the Feynarts model file or outputs the rules to the screen, and a directory which derives two-point functions and the Tadpole. This directory, "SMEFT6_3and4pts," includes:
     39   * SMEFT6_3and4pts.gen and SMEFT6_3and4pts.mod, Feynarts model files including only the 3 and 4 point vertices for the SMEFT at dimension-six.
     40   * rulesrearrange.nb a Mathematica notebook that reads in the Feynarts model file and simplifies the rules, greatly speeding up the performance of Formcalc.
     41   * ampprint.nb a Mathematica notebook that reads in the simplified Feynarts model file and derives the two-point functions and the Tadpole. It also uses Package-X to derive the UV-divergent part of these amplitudes and prints the desired Wilson coefficient dependence of the amplitudes to screen.
     42   
     43   Usage of the ancillary files requires the user to have Feynarts, Formcalc, and Package-X installed in Mathematica and some basic understanding of the packages to run.
