The adaptive Monte Carlo toolbox for phase space integration and generation

An implementation of the Monte Carlo (MC) phase space generators coupled with adaptive MC integration/simulation program FOAM is presented. The first program is a modification of the classic phase space generator GENBOD interfaced with the adaptive sampling integrator/generator FOAM. On top of this tool the algorithm suitable for generation of the phase space for an reaction with two leading particles is presented (double-peripheral process with central production of particles). At the same time it serves as an instructive example of construction of a self-adaptive phase space generator/integrator with a modular structure for specialized particle physics calculations.

GenEx: A simple generator structure for exclusive processes in high energy collisions

A simple C++ class structure for construction of a Monte Carlo event generators which can produce unweighted events within relativistic phase space is presented. The generator is self-adapting to the provided matrix element and acceptance cuts. The program is designed specially for exclusive processes and includes, as an example of such an application, implementation of the model for exclusive production of meson pairs $pp \rightarrow p M^+M^- p $ in high energy proton-proton collisions.

Search for Chargino and Neutralino Production at sqrt(s) = 192-209 GeV at LEP

Approximately 438 pb-1 of e+e- data from the OPAL detector, taken with the LEP collider running at centre-of-mass energies of 192-209 Gev, are analyzed to search for evidence of chargino pair production, e+e- -> tilde chi^+_1 tilde chi^-_1, or neutralino associated production, e+e- -> tilde chi^0_2 tilde chi^0_1. Limits are set at the 95% confidence level on the product of the cross-section for the process e+e- -> tilde chi^+_1 tilde chi^-_1 and its branching ratios to topologies containing jets and missing energy, of jest with a lepton and missing energy, and on the product of the cross-section for e+e- -> tilde chi^0_2 tilde chi^0_1 and its branching ratio to jets. R-parity conservation is assumed throughout this paper. When these results are interpreted in the context of the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, limits are also set on the masses of the tilde chi^+-_1, tilde chi^0_1 and tilde chi^0_2, and regions of the parameter space of the model are ruled out. Nearly model-independent limits are also set at the 95% confidence level on sigma(e+e- -> tilde chi^+_1 tilde chi^-_1) with the assumption that each chargino decays via a W boson, and on sigma(e+e- -> tilde chi^0_2 tilde chi^0_1) with the tilde chi^0_2 assumed to decay via a Z^0.

Photon Structure

Measurements of di-jet production at HERA provide an important test of NLO QCD calculations. It is also a source of information about partonic content of the photon, complementary to the measurements in e+e- experiments. In this article we review the status of the photon structutre studies with particular emphasis on HERA measurements.

QCD coherence in deep inelastic scattering at small x at HERA

QCD coherence effects in initial state radiation at small x in deep inelastic scattering in HERA kinematics are studied with the help of the Monte Carlo model SMALLX. Theoretical assumptions based on the CCFM evolution equation are reviewed and the basic properties of the partonic final states are investigated. The results are compared with those obtained in the conventional DGLAP evolution scheme.
