HERWIG 6.3 Release Note

Abstract

A new release of the Monte Carlo program HERWIG (version 6.3) is now available. The main new features are new (MRST) built-in parton distribution functions, more SM gauge boson production processes, 2 to 3 MSSM Higgs production processes, an option to handle negative event weights, and an interface to the CIRCE beamstrahlung program.

10 pages, program available at http://hepwww.rl.ac.uk/theory/seymour/herwig/ Corrected PDF nomenclature
