Particle ID

The following table lists the which_pieces of McMule as well as the corresponding PID. For example, when calculating the process \(\mu^+\to e^+\nu\bar\nu e^+e^-\), the measurement function may receive up to seven arguments that can be mapped to particles as follows:

FUNCTION QUANT(Q1,Q2,Q3,Q4,Q5,Q6,Q7)
real(kind=prec) :: q1(4) ! incoming muon+
real(kind=prec) :: q2(4) ! outgoing electron+
real(kind=prec) :: q3(4) ! outgoing neutrino, averaged over
real(kind=prec) :: q4(4) ! outgoing neutrino, averaged over
real(kind=prec) :: q5(4) ! outgoing electron-
real(kind=prec) :: q6(4) ! outgoing electron+
real(kind=prec) :: q7(4) ! outgoing optional photon

pol1 = (/ 0., 0., -0.85, 0. /) ! set incoming muon polarisation
...
END FUNCTION

Additionally to the particle mapping, we see that neutrinos are averaged over as indicated by \(\big[\bar\nu_\mu\nu_e\big]\). We can further tell that the first initial state particle is polarised since the P-column lists a 1.
