BHAGENE3, a Monte Carlo event generator for lepton pair production and wide-angle Bhabha scattering in e + e − collisions near the Z peak
Description
Abstract A new Monte Carlo event generator for wide-angle Bhabha scattering and muon pair production in e^+ e^-collisions is described. The program includes complete one-loop electroweak corrections, and QED radiative corrections. The O(α) QED correction uses the exact matrix element. Higher-order QED corrections are included in an improved soft photon approximation with exponentiation of initial state radiation. Events are generated in the full phase space of the final state including explicit mass... Title of program: BHAGENE3 Catalogue Id: ADCS_v1_0 Nature of problem Calculation of all 1-loop electroweak corrections and of QED corrections up to O(alpha^3) for wide angle Bhabha scattering and muon pair production in the vicinity of the Z peak.
