INSTALLATION ------------ Gunzip and untar HAWK-3.0.1.tar.gz: tar -xf HAWK-3.0.1.tar.gz The source files are contained in the HAWK-3.0.1/src directory. The directory HAWK-3.0.1/sampleruns contains results of sample runs. The directories HAWK-3.0.1/bin, HAWK-3.0.1/build are for the executable, build files, respectively. For usage of up-to-date parton distributions functions (PDFs), an interface to the LHAPDF library is provided. The LHAPDF library is not part of the HAWK distribution. In order to use LHAPDF, a working LHAPDF installation has to be available. The information on the LHAPDF installation needs to be provided via the LHAPDF executable 'lhapdf-config' which is part of the LHAPDF installation. To make the executable 'lhapdf-config' available, you have the following options: -copy it to the HAWK directory (or build) -include its directory to the PATH variable of your shell. It is possible to compile HAWK without LHAPDF, however, for usage without LHAPDF, only the tables for three PDF sets (MRST2004QED, CTEQ6L1 and CTEQ6M) are included in the directory HAWK/PDFs. ## COMPILATION In order to compile the stand-alone version of HAWK with LHAPDF (without RECOLA) execute: cd build cmake .. -DLHAPDF=On make install The executable will be installed to the bin folder inside the hawk sources. Run with ``make -j install`` to compile in parallel. In order to compile HAWK with Recola1 + LHAPDF run: cd build cmake .. -DRECOLA1=On -DLHAPDF=On make install In order to compile HAWK with Recola2 + LHAPDF run: cd build cmake .. -DRECOLA2=On -Dmodel= -DLHAPDF=On make install where can take the values: SM, SM_BFM, HS, HS_BFM, THDM, THDM_BFM. .. note:: Note that the CMake options are cached and switching configuration requires to explicitly set options to On/Off. For instance, compiling Recola1 prior to Recola2, requires to set -DRECOLA1=Off for the configuration of Recola2. For handling multiple models and setups it is recommended to configure and install HAWK to specific paths. For instance, in order to set up HAWK with the HS and HS_BFM model invoke cd build cmake .. -DRECOLA2=On -Dmodel=HS -DLHAPDF=On -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../HAWK_HS make install cmake .. -Dmodel=HS_BFM -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../HAWK_HS_BFM make install .. note:: When using Recola the before-mentioned commands will automatically download a suited version. HAWK can be linked to a local version of Recola/Collier by disabling the download step via the CMake option -DDOWNLOAD=Off and setting the environment variable "RECOLA_PATH=,COLLIER_PATH=" to where librecola.so (or recolaConfig.cmake)/libcollier.so (or collierConfig.cmake) is located, in addition to specifying the major recola version via -DRECOLA1/-DRECOLA2. .. note:: Changing the default Fortran compiler is steered with -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER. Reconfiguration with a different Fortran compiler is only possible if the build has not been started or by removing the build directory. .. note:: For use in the SM we recommend using HAWK without Recola which is expected to perform the best. ## Usage For executions "hawk-3.0.1" needs an inputfile from the standard input (see however the remarks for parallel execution using mpi below). When using LHAPDF, the relevant files for the PDFs should be in the directory PDFsets of LHAPDF. When using the included PDF sets, the corresponding table files ("qed6-10gridp.dat" for MRST2004QED or "cteq6m.tbl", "cteq6l1.tbl" for CTEQ6) must be copied from the subdirectory HAWK-3.0.1/PDFs into the working directory, where hawk-3.0.1 is executed. The program can be executed using ./hawk-3.0.1 < inputfile > outputfile. If an output file is specified in the inputfile it will be used. #### INPUT All input should be delivered via the inputfile. This has to be specified via standard input, otherwise HAWK does not start. Its general format can be seen from the default inputfile "input_default" in the directory HAWK-3.0.1/sampleruns and the inputfiles of the subdirectories. While the sample input files specify all relevant parameters, it is sufficient to specify those values that differ from the default. Do not forget the "d0" after "double precision" quantities. The default input of HAWK is taken from CERN-2017-002-M. In the following we present the content of the file "input_default" with additional comments added. The specified values correspond to the default. #### global parameters Name of outputfile if the variable is blank output is written to standard output * outputfile =' ' ! output to standard output * outputfile ='output_default' ! output to file Select the process to be calculated: selprocess = 0: Hjj, p p -> jet jet H, (VBFH) selprocess = 1: Hln, p p -> l+ nu H, (W+H) selprocess = 2: Hnl, p p -> nu~ l- H, (W-H) selprocess = 3: Hll, p p -> l+ l- H, (ZH) selprocess = 4: Hnn, p p -> nu~ nu H, (ZH) .. note:: A change of this flag sets all options and cuts to their defaults. They can be changed thereafter. .. note:: The number of weighted events should be at least 10^7 to guarantee that the multi-channel integration yields reliable estimates. For histograms more events should be used. For the published distributions we used 10^9. Set the number of events: nevents = 10000000 Set the cms energy in pp/ppbar system in GeV: energy = 14000d0 Set the initial state: sppbar=0 p p initial state sppbar=1 p pbar initial state (p in +z direction) # Input parameters ## SM parameters gf=0.11663787d-04 ! Fermi constant mz=91.1876d0 ! Z-boson mass gz=2.4952d0 ! Z-boson width mw=80.385d0 ! W-boson mass gw=2.085d0 ! W-boson width mmu=0.1056583715d0 ! muon mass mt=172.5d0 ! top-quark mass mh=125.0d0 ! Higgs mass gh=4.088d-3 ! Higgs width sinthetac=0.225d0 ! sine of the Cabibbo angle ! the CKM matrix is always treated as real and ! block-diagonal, i.e. without mixing between ! 1st/2nd and 3rd generation. .. note:: The program reads the on-shell masses and widths and translates them internally to the pole masses and widths. These are then used in propagators and the complex weak mixing angle and other couplings. The output provides the pole masses, not the input masses! .. note:: The masses of the light fermions appear internally, but the results are practically independent of the specific values in the alpha_GF scheme used. Only for bare leptons in the final state their mass becomes relevant. Here HAWK uses the input value for the muon mass mmu. .. note:: A non-diagonal CKM matrix is not supported for VBFH with Recola. Recombination and cuts ---------------------- # VBFH Recombination of quarks and gluons according to the kt algorithm of G. C. Blazey et al., hep-ex/0005012 (variants see under [ktpower](#ktpower) ) # ktpower ktpower=1 ! kt algorithm (1), anti-kt algorithm (-1), ! Cambridge-Aachen (0) dparameter=0.4d0 ! D parameter of jet algorithm etacut(parton)=5.0d0 ! pseudorapidity cut on partons in jet algorithm dgammaparameter=0.1d0 ! D parameter of lepton-photon recombination # WH/ZH Recombination of charged leptons and a bremsstrahlung photon if: deltaR(lep,phot) < dgammaparameter If this holds for more than one lepton, the one with the smaller dR is recombined. The recombined particle is treated as a lepton. Leptons can be isolated from collinear photons as described in 0802.1405 [hep-ph] using: sbarelep=1 ! leptons are isolated from collinear photons As this option is considered to make sense only in case of muons, the lepton mass in the splittings is automatically set to the muon mass. No such isolation is applied with: sbarelep=0 which is the recommended option to investigate the electron case. .. note:: For other recombination schemes the subroutines "vbfh_recombination" in "vbfh_public.F" or "whzh_recombination" in "whzh_public.F" must be modified. If this is required, please contact the authors. Standard cuts ------------- scuts=0 no cuts (only useful for total cross section). scuts=-1 no predefined cuts (all cuts to be set by user). ## VBFH scuts=1 the standard cuts as defined in references [1,2] given above (see also T. Figy and D. Zeppenfeld, Phys. Lett. B 591 (2004) 297 [hep-ph/0403297]) Jets are ordered according to pt of jets. scuts=2 Standard cuts as defined in references [1,2] given above (see also T. Figy and D. Zeppenfeld, Phys. Lett. B 591 (2004) 297 [hep-ph/0403297]) jets are ordered according to energy of jets. ### WH/ZH scuts=1 Standard cuts for detected leptons as defined in reference [3] given above. scuts=2 Standard cuts for undetected leptons as defined in reference [3] given above. .. note:: These options set various cuts to their default values. They can be changed thereafter. .. note:: For other cut schemes the subroutines "applycut" or "applyhiggscut" in "public.F" or "applyjetcut" in "vbfh_public.F" or "applylepcut" or "applylephiggscut" in "whzh_public.F" must be modified. If this is required, please contact the authors. ## standard cut parameters The following standard cut parameters can be set after choosing scuts: ### standard cuts for VBFH (i.e. selprocess = 0) ptcut(jet1)=20d0 ! lower pt cut on jet 1 (leading jet) ptcut(jet2)=20d0 ! lower pt cut on jet 2 (subleading jet) ycut(jet1)=4.5d0 ! upper |y| cut on jet 1 ycut(jet2)=4.5d0 ! upper |y| cut on jet 2 dycut(jet,jet)=4.0d0 ! lower delta y cut between jets 1 and 2 hemispherecut=1 ! y(jet1)*y(jet2) < 0 ptmax(jet1)=1d30 ! upper pt cut on jet 1 ptmax(jet2)=1d30 ! upper pt cut on jet 2 ptmax(jet3)=1d30 ! upper pt cut on jet 3 ymin(jet1)=0d0 ! lower |y| cut on jet 1 ymin(jet2)=0d0 ! lower |y| cut on jet 2 ymin(jet3)=0d0 ! lower |y| cut on jet 3 ptcut(visible)=0d0 ! lower cut on |pt_jet1+pt_jet2+pt_H| (vector sum) ptmax(visible)=1d30 ! upper cut on |pt_jet1+pt_jet2+pt_H| (vector sum) mlcut(jet,jet)=0d0 ! lower cut on invariant mass of pair of jets 1 and 2 mucut(jet,jet)=1d30 ! upper cut on invariant mass of pair of jets 1 and 2 dphicut(jet1,higgs)=0d0 ! lower cut on azimuth between jet 1 and Higgs dphicut(jet2,higgs)=0d0 ! lower cut on azimuth between jet 2 and Higgs ptcut(higgs)=0d0 ! lower pt cut on Higgs ycut(higgs)=1d10 ! upper |y| cut on Higgs ecut(higgs)=0d0 ! lower energy cut on Higgs mlcut(higgs)=1d-2 ! lower cut on the invariant mass of Higgs mucut(higgs)=1d30 ! upper cut on the invariant mass of Higgs hemispherecut=0 ! no hemispherecut hemispherecut=1 ! y(jet1)*y(jet2) < 0 required for jets 1 and 2 In order to implement a jet veto, ptmax and ymin can be used in combination to define final states without detectable jets, where a "detectable jet" fulfils pt(jet) > ptmax(jet) and |y(jet)| < ymin(jet). The cuts for jet1 apply to all jets, those for jet2 for all but the leading jet, those for jet3 only to the third jet. Set ptmax(jet1/2/3)=1d30 and/or ymin(jet1/2/3)=0d0 to switch off these cuts. ### standard cuts for WH/ZH (i.e. selprocess = 1, 2, 3, 4) for scuts=1: ptcut(lep)=20d0 ! lower pt cut on leptons ycut(lep)=2.5d0 ! upper |y| cut on leptons ptmax(lep)=1d10 ! upper pt cut on leptons ymin(lep)=0d0 ! lower |y| cut on leptons for scuts=2: ptcut(lep)=0d0 ! lower pt cut on leptons ycut(lep)=1d10 ! upper |y| cut on leptons ptmax(lep)=20d0 ! upper pt cut on leptons ymin(lep)=2.5d0 ! lower |y| cut on leptons for scuts=1 and scuts=2: ptcut(V)=190d0 ! lower pt cut on V ptcut(miss)=25d0 ! lower cut on missing-pt (pt of neutrino(s)) drcut(lep,lep)=0d0 ! lower cut on dR between leptons drcut(jet,lep)=0d0 ! lower cut on dR between lepton and jet mlcut(lep,lep)=0d0 ! lower cut on invariant mass between leptons mucut(lep,lep)=1d10 ! upper cut on invariant mass between leptons ecut(lep)=0d0 ! lower energy cut on leptons ptcut(higgs)=200d0 ! lower pt cut on Higgs ycut(higgs)=1d10 ! upper |y| cut on Higgs ecut(higgs)=0d0 ! lower energy cut on Higgs In analogy to a jet veto ptmax and ymin are used in combination to define final states without detectable leptons, where a detectable lepton fulfils: pt(lep) > ptmax(lep) and |y(lep)| < ymin(lep). Set ptmax(lep)=1d10 and/or ymin(lep)=0d0 to switch off this cut. # off-shell Higgs boson, decays and corresponding cuts shtr=0 ! on-shell Higgs boson (default) shtr=1 ! off-shell Higgs boson shtr=2 ! off-shell Higgs boson decaying into a pair of singlets (only for VBFH) .. note:: For shtr=1 the external Higgs boson is off-shell and the resonance is treated according to the flag shbw (see below) for shtr=2 additionally an isotropic Higgs decay into a pair of scalar singlets is included. This can be used to mimic any two-body decay, e.g. the decay into photons. .. note:: For shtr=1 or 2 the width of the Higgs boson has to be given as input or the width can be calculated internally (see gh and sgh below). for shtr=2 in addition the branching ratio for the decay into singlets has to be given .. note:: For an off-shell Higgs boson the electroweak corrections are calculated after an on-shell projection of the momenta .. note:: An off-shell Higgs boson is not supported with Recola. For an off-shell Higgs boson (shtr=1 or 2) the following prescription is used for the Higgs resonance: shbw=0 ! standard Breit-Wigner with mass mh and (constant) width gh shbw=1 ! off-shell propagator according to arXiV:1107.0683, eq. (4.6) sgh=0 ! use Higgs width as specified in input by gh sgh=1 ! gh is set for the input Higgs mass using an interpolation ! of the results in arXiv:1101.0593 [hep-ph] ! (based on a routine of G. Passarino) sgh=2 ! gh is calculated according to the complex-mass scheme ! (using cpHTO11.f by G. Passarino) ! for sgh=1 or sgh=2 the input value gh is not used .. note: for shbw=1, sgh=0 is not allowed Width of the Higgs boson and branching ratio for the decay into singlets (for shtr=2). Hbr simply rescales the complete cross section. gh=0.00421d0 ! Higgs width (for MH=126 GeV) Hbr=1d0 ! branching ratio for Higgs decay into singlets # cut parameters for cuts on Higgs decay products (singlets) ptcut(decp)=0d0 ! lower pt cut on Higgs decay products ycut(decp)=1d10 ! upper |y| cut on Higgs decay products higgsbetweenjets=0 ! min(y(jet1),y(jet2))0: sqcdnondiag, sqcdggfus, sqcdgsplit are set to zero, these contributions are not supported for anomalous Higgs couplings. .. note:: These options are not supported with Recola. # switches for s/t channels, interferences only for VBFH sscha=1 ! s-channel contributions included stcha=1 ! t/u-channel contributions included sch2=1 ! squared diagrams included schint=1 ! interferences included These switches can be used to switch on or off contributions connected to s or t channel diagrams, squared diagrams or interferences by default all are equal to 1 .. note:: To take only squared t-channel (and u-channel) diagrams into account use: * sscha=0 ! s-channel contributions not included * stcha=1 ! t/u-channel contributions included * sch2=1 ! squared diagrams included * schint=0 ! interferences not included QCD contributions are in addition steered by the switches sqcddiag, sqcdnondiag, sqcdggfus, and sqcdgsplit .. note:: These options are not supported with Recola. Only relevant for VBFH (selprocess = 0), values are automatically set for WH/ZH (selprocess = 1,2,3,4). # input for anomalous HVV couplings Optional inclusion of anomalous HVV couplings (V=W,Z): shvv=0 ! no anomalous HVV couplings (default) shvv=1 ! inclusion of anomalous HVV couplings ! following the (modified) parametrization of !

For the histograms in Phys.Rev.D77:013002,2008 [arXiv:0710.4749] 10^9 events were used and the histograms rebinned to 20 bins. COMMENTS The virtual electroweak corrections are only calculated for each 100th event, the real electroweak contributions only for each 10th event. Electromagnetic coupling constant: The electromagnetic coupling constant is derived from the Fermi constant. This procedure takes into account some higher-order effects already at tree level. Treatment of gauge-boson resonances: Gauge-boson resonances are treated using the complex-mass scheme. (A. Denner, S. Dittmaier, M. Roth, L.H. Wieders, Nucl.Phys.B724:247-294,2005, hep-ph/0505042) The program reads the on-shell masses and widths and translates them internally to the pole masses and widths. These are then used in propagators and the complex weak mixing angle and other couplings. Parallel implementation using the mpi standard: HAWK also supports parallel execution using mpi. To use the parallel version configure with -DMPI=On. In addition you have to make sure that the mpi libraries are properly linked. The parallel version of HAWK has been tested using openmpi 1.10.4. Using HAWK with MPI, the input cannot be provided via standard input (./hawk-3.0.1 < inputfile) but has to be put into a file with the literal name 'inputfile' in the directory of the hawk-3.0.1 executable. ## Parameters for extended Higgs sectors HAWK + Recola2 allows to compute the before-mentioned Higgs production mechanism in extended Higgs sectors, i.e. for neutral Higgs production in the Two-Higgs-doublet model and the Higgs-singlet extension of the Standard Model. All our conventions agree with the ones used in the main text of arXiv:1808.03466. Set the external Higgs flavour, depending on the Recola2 model in use: higgsflavor="H" ! SM Higgs boson: SM (default) higgsflavor="Hl" ! light Higgs boson: THDM, HSESM (default) higgsflavor="Hh" ! heavy Higgs boson: THDM, HSESM higgsflavor="Ha" ! pseudo scalar Higgs boson: THDM The Higgs boson masses are set as follows: mhh=200.0d0 ! heavy Higgs mass mha=200.0d0 ! pseudo scalar Higgs mass mhc=200.0d0 ! charged Higgs mass The light Higgs boson mass is set via ``mh``. Note that ``Hh`` can still be considered the SM-like Higgs boson, e.g. ``mhh=125GeV`` and ``mhh>mh``. Set the mixing angles: cab = 0.1d0 | THDM tb = 1d0 ! THDM l5 = -1.9d0 ! THDM sa = 0.29d0 ! HSESM l3 = 0.14d0 ! HSESM The Yukawa type in the THDM is set by default to type II, but since only the top quark is considered massive all types are equivalent. Set the mixing angle renormalization scheme: mixrs = 'FJ' ! THDM,HSESM mixrs = 'PR' ! THDM,HSESM mixrs = 'OS' ! HSESM (default) mixrs = 'OS1' ! THDM mixrs = 'OS2' ! THDM mixrs = 'OS12' ! THDM (default) mixrs = 'BFM' ! THDM,HSESM .. note:: The Background-Field renormalization schemes can be used also in models not formulated with the Background-Field method. The MSbar schemes (FJ,PR) depend on the BSM MSbar scale: mumsbsm = 100d0 ! Sets BSM MSbar scale to 100 GeV This defines the scale mumsbsm corresponding to the input values for the parameters sa(mumsbsm), l3(mumsbsm) in the HSESM and cab(mumsbsm), tb(mumsbsm), l5(mumsbsm) in the THDM. The default values are mumsbsm = (mh + mhh + 2*mhc + mha)/5 in the THDM mumsbsm = mh in the HSESM .. note:: The OS scheme in the HSESM has a scale dependence due to the MSbar renormalization of l3 which enters, however, only through the conversion and running. ## Conversion and running HAWK + Recola2 comes with tools to convert between different renormalization schemes and to compute the running parameters: * conv_hs, run_hs: conversion and running tools for the HSESM * conv_thdm, run_thdm: conversion and running tools for the THDM The tools corresponding to the selected model file are automically installed along with HAWK executable and example input files can be found in the install path in the examples directory. ### conv_hs This tool computes the conversion for the HSESM. It expects a parameter card with at least 5 parameters: MHH sa l3 rs_ref rs_cmp where MHH is the mass of the heavy Higgs boson, sa is the mixing angle. rs_ref represents the input scheme and rs_cmp is the output scheme. rs_ref/rs_cmp can take the values ``PR,FJ,OS,BFM`` Example: ./conv_hs < pcard where pcard contains the lines MHH=200d0 sa=0.29d0 l3=0.14d0 rs_ref=OS rs_cmp=PR The conversion scale is set to 125d0 by default, but can be overwritten specifying mumsbsm. ### run_hs This tool expects 5 arguments: MHH sa l3 scalefac rs where MHH is the mass of the heavy Higgs boson, sa is the mixing angle, and l3 a Higgs coupling. rs represents the input scheme and scalefac sets the window for scale variation to [\mu/scalefac, \mu*scalefac]. rs can take the values ``PR,FJ,OS`` which defines the renormalization scheme for ``sa`` (``l3`` is always renormalized MSbar). For ``OS`` only the running in ``l3`` is performed. run_hs writes out the running values in tabular to files (``run_*``) which allow to extract intermediate values. Example: ./run_hs < pcard where pcard contains the lines MHH=200d0 sa=0.30216737262974d0 l3=0.14626363065762d0 scalefac=2 rs=PR ### conv_thdm This tool expects 8 arguments: MHH MHA MHC cab tb l5 rs_ref rs_cmp where MHH,MHA,MHC are the masses of the heavy, pseudo-scalar and charged Higgs bosons, cab, tb are the mixing angles. rs_ref represents the input scheme and rs_cmp is the output scheme. rs_ref/rs_cmp can take the values ``PR,FJ,OS1,OS2,OS12,BFM``. Example: ./conv_thdm < pcard where pcard contains the lines MHH=300d0 MHA=460d0 MHC=460d0 cab=0.1d0 tb=2.d0 l5=-1.9d0 mixrs_ref='OS12' mixrs_cmp='PR' The conversion scale is set to the arithmetic mean (125d0 + mhh + mha + 2*mhc)/5 by default, but can be overwritten specifying mumsbsm. ### run_thdm This tool expects 8 arguments: MHH MHA MHC cab tb l5 scalefac rs where MHH,MHA,MHC are the masses of the heavy, pseudo-scalar and charged Higgs bosons, cab, tb are the mixing angles, and l5 a Higgs coupling. rs represents the input scheme and scalefac sets the window for scale variation to [\mu/scalefac, \mu*scalefac]. rs can take the values ``PR,FJ`` which defines the renormalization for ``cab`` and ``tb`` (``l5`` is always renormalized MSbar). Any other value for rs will keep ``cab,tb`` fixed (on-shell/bfm) and only the running in l5 is performed. run_thdm writes out the running values in tabular to files (``run_*``) which allows to extract intermediate values. Example: ./run_thdm < pcard where pcard contains the lines MHH=300d0 MHA=460d0 MHC=460d0 cab=0.156d0 tb=1.92d0 l5=-1.9d0 scalefac=2d0 mixrs='PR' .. note:: The Standard Model parameters are hard-coded but can be overwritten by specifying the model parameters: Gf,MW,GW,MZ,GZ,MT,MB,MHL. To print a list of parameters used by the modelfile use printp=1 in the parameter card. Note that Gf and the on-shell masses (widths) MW(GW),MZ(GZ) are translated to aEW (alpha_em calculated from GF and the gauge-boson masses) and pole masses consistent with the use in HAWK. ### Examples from arXiv:1808.03466: BHM200^+ in PRTS Conversion input: MHH=200d0 sa=0.29d0 l3=0.14d0 mixrs_ref='OS' mixrs_cmp='PR' Output: Full conversion from OS to PR sa: 0.30216737262974 ca: 0.95325488664787 l3: 0.14626363065762 chires: 0.00000000000000 Running input: mhh=200 sa=0.30216737262974d0 l3=0.14626363065762d0 scalefac=2d0 rs='FJ' Output: sa(mu0/2.00) 0.363192372768216 l3(mu0/2.00) 0.170767547819326 sa(2.00 mu0) 0.248483391417851 l3(2.00 mu0) 0.123538412918940 B1 in PRTS Conversion input: MHH=200d0 MHA=420d0 MHC=420d0 cab=0.3d0 tb=3.d0 l5=-2.5746d0 mixrs_ref=OS12 mixrs_cmp=PR Output: Full conversion from OS12 to PR tb: 2.80192588391454 cab: 0.19663080092935 chires: 0.00000000000000 Running input: MHH=200d0 MHA=420d0 MHC=420d0 cab=0.19663080092935d0 tb=2.80192588391454d0 l5=-2.5746d0 scalefac=2d0 rs='PR' Output: tb(mu0/2.00) 2.843353531692580 cab(mu0/2.00) -0.062497261937392 l5(mu0/2.00) -2.381641449278198 tb(2.00 mu0) 2.760966977984491 cab(2.00 mu0) 0.682946535943313 l5(2.00 mu0) -2.871632733844993 .. note:: The results from arXiv:1808.03466 cannot be exactly reproduced with the current version due to the change of input parameters and ambiguities related to input parameters and the complex mass scheme. Nevertheless the differences should be phenomenologically irrelevant for well-behaved benchmark scenarios. SAMPLERUNS We provide several sample input files along with the corresponding results. They can be found in the corresponding subdirectories of HAWK-3.0.1/sampleruns. All sample runs (apart from input_default) use 10^7 events and default input parameters and cuts for the corresponding processes. They typically take between 1 hour (testrun.Hnn) to 12 hours (testrun.Hjj_ofs) for the version without RECOLA. When using RECOLA, the run times increase by up to a factor 7 (for VBFH). The histograms of the sample runs are also provided. * "input_default": This file shows all input parameters with their default values and provides a run with 10^6 events for VBFH, pp -> Hjj, for on-shell Higgs, taking about 1 hour (with the gfortran compiler, or 20 minutes using the ifort compiler).
