-
QCD effects on new physics searches collecting LO and NLO programs for
signal and background studies examples: SUSY, leptoquarks, Higgs, Z'. What
is available/needed? parton level generators with quark/gluon flavor and
color identification Interfacing with PYTHIA, HERWIG, ISAJET parton shower
at NLO?
-
Heavy flavor production state of the art predictions for top, bottom (charm)
pair and single production cross sections
-
Monte Carlo generators PYTHIA, Herwig and Isajet...
Action items from March meeting
-
How do we merge NLO and or LO calculations with parton showering? What
do we even mean by showering at NLO?
-
Tune showering to agree with Tevatron data
-
Compare heavy flavor data with parton showering predictions
-
Understand status of J/Psi data including polarization
CDF

group schedule for March 4,5,6 meeting including links to copies of
