Hi Peter,

Your model is not on the database of model:

So I'm not able to test.
I have quite similar model in the database:
SMEFTsim_A_MFV_alphaScheme_UFO_v2_1 SMEFTsim_A_U35_alphaScheme_UFO_v2_1 SMEFTsim_A_U35_MwScheme_UFO_v2_1/
SMEFTsim_A_MFV_MwScheme_UFO_v2_1 SMEFTsim_A_U35_MwScheme_UFO_v2_1 SMEFTsim_tb1/

But not that one.

But your problem is typical of any 4 point interaction that has all three point vanishing.
In that case we face a limitation of our PS integrator who crashes that way.
The only solution is to simplify the model to avoid to have ANY three-point Feynman diagram.

Cheers,

Olivier
