    32 To describe the four-gluon-Higgs coupling a vertex with 5 external lines is needed. This cannot be done with !MadGraph. However, there is a way to circumvent this problem by introducing non-propagating auxiliary particles. It is possible to rewrite the four-gluon interactions as two three-point interactions connected by the new auxiliary tensor particle (called tn internally, and shows as T in the MG diagrams, the PDG code is 99). The troublesome five-point interaction (between the four gluons and the Higgs) reduces then to three three-point interactions.

    3434Notice that the color part of the four-gluon vertex is exactly like the sum of the s-, t-, and u-channel exchange diagram, where the exchanged particle is in the adjoint representation of color, i.e. an octet.
