NLO vector-boson production matched with shower in POWHEG
Simone Alioli, Paolo Nason, Carlo Oleari +1
We present a next-to-leading-order calculation of W/Z production interfaced to shower Monte Carlo, implemented according to the POWHEG method. Finite width effects, Z/gamma interfe…
MINT: a Computer Program for Adaptive Monte Carlo Integration and Generation of Unweighted Distributions
P. Nason
In this note I illustrate the program MINT, a FORTRAN program for Monte Carlo adaptive integration and generation of unweighted distributions.
The POWHEG-hvq manual version 1.0
Stefano Frixione, Paolo Nason, Giovanni Ridolfi
This note documents the use of the POWHEG-hvq package, a generator for heavy flavour hadroproduction at next-to-leading order in QCD, that can be easily interfaced to shower Monte…
Radiative quarkonium decays and the NMSSM Higgs interpretation of the HyperCP Sigma+ --> p mu+mu- events
Michelangelo L. Mangano, Paolo Nason
We study the potential of radiative decays of the Upsilon(1S) and of the phi mesons to search for a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson, proposed as a possible interpretation of Sigma+…
Heavy Flavour Production
Paolo Nason
I discuss few recent developments in Heavy Flavour Production phenomenology.
Heavy Flavour Production
Paolo Nason
Recent progress in Heavy Flavour Production phenomenology are discussed. In particular, the long-standing discrepancy of the Tevatron b production data is considered. It is shown t…
