PHANTOM: A Monte Carlo event generator for six parton final states at high energy colliders

Abstract
PHANTOM is a tree level Monte Carlo for six parton final states at proton-proton, proton-antiproton and electron-positron colliders at O (α_(E M)^6 ) and O (α_(E M)^4α_S ^2 ) including possible interferences between the two sets of diagrams. This comprehends all purely electroweak contributions as well as all contributions with one virtual or two external gluons. It can generate unweighted events for any set of processes and it is interfaced to parton shower and hadronization packages v...

Title of program: PHANTOM (V. 1.0)
Catalogue Id: AECE_v1_0

Nature of problem
Six fermion final state processes have become important with the increase of collider energies and are essential for the study of top, higgs and electroweak symmetry breaking physics at high energy colliders. Since thousands of Feynman diagrams contribute in a single process and events corresponding to hundreds of different final states need to be generated, a fast and stable calculation is needed.

摘要
PHANTOM是一款面向质子-质子、质子-反质子以及电子-正电子对撞机中6部分子末态（parton final states）的树级（tree level）蒙特卡洛（Monte Carlo）程序，其计算精度覆盖α_EM^6阶与α_EM^4α_S^2阶，并包含两类费曼图（Feynman diagrams）集合之间可能存在的干涉效应。该程序囊括了所有纯电弱贡献，以及所有含1个虚胶子或2个外部胶子的贡献。它可针对任意过程集合生成未加权事例，且已与部分子喷注（parton shower）及强子化（hadronization）软件包相连接……

问题描述
随着对撞机能量的提升，六费米子末态过程的重要性日益凸显，其对于高能对撞机上顶夸克、希格斯玻色子以及电弱对称性破缺物理的研究至关重要。由于单个过程涉及数千个费曼图，且需生成数百种不同末态对应的事例，因此亟需一套快速且稳定的计算方案。
