Using ModelMaker.m in FeynArts

I want to write a model file in FeynArts and I came across ModelMaker which takes in the Lagrangian as Input and then generates the .mod file. I am trying to make a model file for $\phi^4$ theory as a start. I have a couple of questions as I cannot…

FeynCalc: FermionSpinSum problems with interference of diagrams

I encountered a problem in FeynCalc, where i wanted to calculate the $\sum_\text{spins}|\mathcal{M}|^2$ of a process and therefore need the function FermionSpinSum[ ] of FeynCalc. I run: TESTM = SpinorUBar[l,…

FeynCalc capability in Beyond Standard Model

Few days ago I started to learn FeynCalc, but it seemed to me that it has not capability of handling new models, thus I quit. It seemed that it just loads some predefined Lagrangians. My questions are: Can I define an arbitrary Lagrangian with…

FeynCalc TID PaVeLimitTo4 option leads to divergence

I'm trying to compute the Higgs to gluon pair decay at 1-loop using Feyncalc and FeynHelper (to connect with Package-X). I first define variables and loop part as: FCClearScalarProducts[]; SP[k1, k1] = 0; SP[k2, k2] = 0; SP[q, q] = mH^2; SP[k1, q] =…

Problems in generating example models of FeynCalc

I'm getting started with FeynCalc and FeynArts, so I tried to run some of the examples they give you. Everything works fine, except for the ones which require to generate a model using the scripts in FeynRules. They all give me the following error…

Can FeynCalc be used for Heavy quark effective field?

I start to learn FeynCalc. I want to use it for Heavy quark field theory. For example, extract the vertices from Eq.(34) from paper 1901.10339. Since I am not good at FeynCalc, so I want to know whether it can be used to Heavy quark field theory. If…

How to evaluate an expression with FeynCalc?

How can I evaluate specific expressions in FeynCalc? For example, if there is a $\delta^i_j$, how can I set $i$ to 1 and $j$ to 2 and make it evaluate to zero? I've tried TR[GA[µ,v]] /. {µ -> 1, v -> 2} but that does not work, it just yields…
