Vector-boson pair production is of great phenomenological importance at the LHC. These processes will help to validate the Standard Model at highest energies, and they may also open the door for the discovery of new physics potentially…
We present the physics foundations and recent developments of Herwig 7, the modern successor of the original HERWIG and Herwig++ series. Herwig 7 provides a flexible and systematically improvable framework for the simulation of high-energy…
We describe a Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of QCD-instanton induced processes in deep-inelastic scattering (HERA). The QCDINS package is designed as an ``add-on'' hard process generator interfaced to the general hadronic…
This manual describes how to use the MatCHig code for matching the charged Higgs boson production processes gg->tbH+/- and gb->tH+/-. A negative term, correcting for the double-counting between these processes, is implemented as an external…
