    55=== Basic Syntax Rules ===
    66
    7    * Use a ">" to separate the initial state particle(s) from the final state ones.
     7   * Use a ">" to separate the initial state particle(s) from the final state ones.
    88
    99   * Initial state can be one (decay) or two (scattering) particles.
    10    * Use " x x &gt; <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> &gt; y y y " form to require particle <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> to appear in a s-channel intermediate state (not recommended due to gauge invariance).
     10   * Use " x x > <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> > y y y " form to require particle <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> to appear in a s-channel intermediate state (not recommended due to gauge invariance).
    1111
    12    * Use " x x &gt; y y y $ <span style="color: #990099;">z</span>" form to forbid particle <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> from appearing in a s-channel intermediate state (not recommended due to gauge invariance).
     12   * Use " x x > y y y $ <span style="color: #990099;">z</span>" form to forbid particle <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> from appearing in a s-channel intermediate state (not recommended due to gauge invariance).
    1313
    14    * Use " x x &gt; y y y / <span style="color: #990099;">z</span>" form to exclude particle <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> to appear as internal particle in any diagram.
     14   * Use " x x > y y y / <span style="color: #990099;">z</span>" form to exclude particle <span style="color: #990099;">z</span> to appear as internal particle in any diagram.
    1515
    16    * Use comma to specify decay chains. For instance "x x &gt; Z W, Z &gt;y y, W &gt; k k" means "x x &gt; Z W" where Z then decays to yy and W to kk.
    17    * Coupling orders are automatically detected to generate the leading order processes. To explicitly specify coupling orders, add them after the process on the same line:<br />x x &gt; y y y / z QCD=0<br />x x &gt; Z W QED=2, Z &gt; y y, W &gt; k k<br />Note that if a coupling order is omitted, it defaults to infinity (or, for restricted couplings such as HIG in the HEFT model, to the restricted value).
    18    * Use the multi-label "p" to indicate a proton or an anti-proton.<br /> The symbol "p~" does not exist. In fact the type of initial state (pp or ppbar or parton-parton fixed energy) is specified later, during the run, in the run_card.dat.<br />The multi-lable "j" suggests a final-state jet.
     16   * Use comma to specify decay chains. For instance "x x > Z W, Z >y y, W > k k" means "x x > Z W" where Z then decays to yy and W to kk.
     17   * Coupling orders are automatically detected to generate the leading order processes. To explicitly specify coupling orders, add them after the process on the same line:[[br]]x x > y y y / z QCD=0[[br]]x x > Z W QED=2, Z > y y, W > k k[[br]]Note that if a coupling order is omitted, it defaults to infinity (or, for restricted couplings such as HIG in the HEFT model, to the restricted value).
     18   * Use the multi-label "p" to indicate a proton or an anti-proton.[[br]] The symbol "p~" does not exist. In fact the type of initial state (pp or ppbar or parton-parton fixed energy) is specified later, during the run, in the run_card.dat.[[br]]The multi-lable "j" suggests a final-state jet.
    1919   * Note that the syntax for MadGraph 5 differs slightly from previous versions: a space (" ") is required between particle names, and the decay chain syntax has been upgraded to a more powerful syntax which allows better control of the different processes.
