 3- We still have to decide on what to do in practice, the following solutions are proposed 3- We still have to decide on what to do in practice, the following solutions are proposed
 A) For processes that have a t-channel contribution,​ use tcut as defined in relation with the thermal mass. I think we all agree on how to implement tcut as well as how to implement the thermal mass - by default the SM thermal mass. Here what is not clear is how this will affect the s-channel contribution and/or interference. Andreas promised to do some more test on that point so let’s wait for his input. A) For processes that have a t-channel contribution,​ use tcut as defined in relation with the thermal mass.

-B) For processes with only a s-channel contribution,​ we should not use a cut (I am not sure everyone agrees on this). There are two opinions, a) not to put tcut on processes without t-channel (is there a practical disadvantage in implementing this in micromegas?​) b) to treat the s-channel resonance as a decay process which should take care of the cut issue since the decay is not subject to tCut. The added advantage of solution b (which could be implemented irrespective of tcut) is that the calculation is faster. The disadvantage is that there is some uncertainty on how to cut the resonance 3 widths- 5 widths etc… Moreover solution b) from Sasha proposes to use tcut on everything but the s-channel. This raises some issues as was illustrated in the test I have done with only s-channel. I do not know what to think of this test but I thought ​ it would  be good  to have a coherent answer to that  as it might explain some issues in the problem ​ about the interference s and t channel.+B) For processes with only a s-channel contribution,​ we should not use a cut (I am not sure everyone agrees on this).
