Please checkout the launchpad [link](https://launchpad.net/mg5amcnlo) for more MadGraph specific details/instructions. To run Contur, **proc_card.dat** is necessary while others are only for (relatively) expert use cases. Here, we will first demonstrate how to run Contur steered MadGraph with **run_card.dat** and then explain the use case of **madspin_card.dat** as well.

Result would probably look like below (a bit dependent on Contur release version one uses). We've excluded Z' mass up to 2000 GeV (for kl=1.0)!

MadSpin is used for resonance decays and we will not further explain what it is. For more details, please checkout MadGraph tutorials. Here, we will be using it for top quark decays which is decayed from Z'.

Noticed `dat` and `sh` files have changed to `zprime_tt`? In `zprime_tt.sh`, only `generate` command has changed from the example above to generate top pair from Z' via s-channel in NLO.
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
import model <RunInfo/VPrime_NLO>
|
|
|
generate p p > zp > t t~ [QCD] # Z' to top pair via s-channel in NLO

Parameter scanning range has also changed as it's a different process. Take a look at `zprime_tt.dat` yourself. There is a new file named `madspin_card.dat` in `RunInfo` which defines the top quark decay modes. Let's take a look.

The set of MadGraph cards, run_card.dat, pythia8_card.dat, and madspin_card.dat (if one doesn't want to use default settings from MadGraph) should be put into RunInfo directory.

Obviously, result would have changed as we are scanning totally different process. One peculiar point we can find is that low mass (where mass of Z' is smaller than 300 GeV) totally lost sensitivity. |
