GALRD[mu,n,nb]
denotes the perpendicular component in the lightcone decomposition of the Dirac matrix \gamma^{\mu } along the vectors n
and nb
in D dimensions. It corresponds to \gamma^{\mu}_{\perp}.
If one omits n
and nb
, the program will use default vectors specified via $FCDefaultLightconeVectorN
and $FCDefaultLightconeVectorNB
.

Notice that the properties of n
and nb
vectors have to be set by hand before doing the actual computation
