High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

A new version of the Monte Carlo program HERWIG (version 6.1) is now available. This note gives brief details of the new features relative to the previous version (5.9). A fully updated manual will follow shortly. The main new features are: supersymmetric processes (both R-parity conserving and R-parity violating) in hadron-hadron collisions; the new process e+e- to 4 jets; matrix element corrections to top decay and Drell-Yan processes; new soft underlying event options; updates to particle data tables; new LaTeX and html printout options.
