The six-fermion production processes $e^+e^-\to q\bar q l^+ l^-\nu\bar\nu$, with all the lepton flavours and $q=u,d,c,s$, relevant to the study of the intermediate-mass Higgs boson at future $e^+e^-$ linear colliders, are analysed. A Monte…
We present the latest developments of the MadGraph/MadEvent Monte Carlo event generator and several applications to hadron collider physics. In the current version events at the parton, hadron and detector level can be generated directly…
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…
We introduce a new, fully massive, Monte Carlo program to compute all four-fermion processes in electron-positron collisions, including Higgs production. We outline our strategy for the matrix element evaluation, the phase space generation…
We give a status report on new developments in the WHIZARD event generator, including NLO electroweak automation for $e^+e^-$ colliders, loop-induced processes, POWHEG matching, new features in the UFO interface and the current development…
We describe the recent development of the Herwig++ event generator.
A fully massive Monte Carlo program to compute all four-fermion processes in electron positron collisions, including Higgs boson production, is presented. Leading higher order effects are discussed and included.
We describe the program HERWIRI2.1, which implements order alpha-squared photonic radiative corrections exponentiated at the amplitude level (initial state, final state, and initial-final interference) and electroweak corrections to the…
This manual describes version 1.0 of the Monte Carlo event generator KROWIG for deep inelastic lepton hadron scattering at HERA. KROWIG combines the implementation of QED radiative corrections in KRONOS with the QCD parton showers and…
In this article we describe simulations of the hadronic decay of Higgs bosons produced in association with vector bosons at linear and hadronic colliders. We use the Monte Carlo at next-to-leading-order MC@NLO matching prescription with the…
Three studies on six-fermion production processes are presented, in which the production of an intermediate-mass Higgs boson, the top-quark physics and the analysis of possible anomalous quartic gauge couplings are considered. A Monte Carlo…
We study the differences in the gamma ray spectra simulated by four Monte Carlo event generator packages developed in particle physics. Two different versions of PYTHIA and two of HERWIG are analyzed, namely PYTHIA 6.418 and HERWIG 6.5.10…
I discuss old and recent aspects of QCD jet-emission and describe how hard QCD results are used to construct Monte Carlo programs for generating hadron emission in hard collisions. I focus on the program HERWIG at LHC.
We present a new release of the program iHixs. This easy-to-use tool allows to derive state of the art predictions for the inclusive production cross section of a Higgs boson at hadron colliders in the gluon fusion production mode. This…
In this article, we highlight physics improvements in the NuWro Monte Carlo event generator. The upcoming version of NuWro will incorporate the integration of the argon spectral function for quasi-elastic scattering, along with the…
We review the modelling of multiple interactions in the event generator Herwig++ and study implications of recent tuning efforts to Tevatron and LHC data. It is often said that measurements of the effective cross section for double-parton…
The HERWIG 5.9 cluster hadronization model is briefly discussed here. It is shown that the model has peculiar behaviour when new heavy baryon resonances are included in the HERWIG 5.9 particle table. New fragmentation model is proposed to…
We study in this paper the production, in hadronic collisions, of final states with W gauge bosons, heavy quark pairs and n extra jets (with n up to 4). The complete partonic tree-level QCD matrix elements are evaluated using the ALPHA…
The aim of this work is to search for a new heavy Higgs boson in the B-L extension of the Standard Model at LHC using the data produced from simulated collisions between two protons at different center of mass energies by Monte Carlo event…
