摘要
WPHACT 2.0 is the new fully massive version of a MC program and unweighted event generator which computes all Standard Model processes with four fennions in the final state at e(+)e(-) colliders. The program can now generate unweighted events for any subset of all four fermion final states in a single run, by making use of dedicated pre-samples which can cover the entire phase space. Improvements with respect to WPHACT 1.0 include the Imaginary Fermion Loop gauge restoring scheme, new phase space mappings, a new input system, the possibility to compute subsets of Feynman diagrams and options for including ISR via QEDPS, running alpha(QED), CKM mixing, resonances in qq channels.
