| - | The details are in the new version of the draft: | ||

| - | Summary of the main points agreed on in the meeting of June 5: | ||
| - | === Passing Parameters:=== | ||
| - | function: OLP_SetParameter(char*, &double, &double, &int) | ||
| - | The keywords for the particle masses and widths are defined by their PDG codes, | ||
| - | names for couplings are defined in the write-up, e.g. for the top mass, width, sin^2\theta_w: | ||
| - | mass(6), | ||
| - | width(6), | ||
| - | sw2 | ||
| - | Note that these parameters can be complex (two doubles as function arguments). | + | **[[2013:groups:sm:cutsobservables|Cuts and Observables]]** |
| - | Global settings like | + | ==== Plans for the upcoming Les Houches Report ==== |
| - | MassiveParticles, | + | |
| - | (In)ActiveParticles | + | |
| - | should also be possible. | + | === EW corrections - theoretical guidelines and experimental issues === |
| - | + | == Theoretical guidelines: == | |
| - | ===Treatment of unstable phase space points:=== | + | * EW input parameter schemes \\ which to use in which process / for which corrections, etc. |
| - | + | * Photon radiation \\ their role in NC/CC processes, general features, collinear non-safety versus KLN inclusiveness, etc. | |
| - | no changes with respect to the last version of the draft | + | * Photon-induced processes \\ their size in various processes, how to fix the photon PDF, EW factorization scheme, etc. |
| - | + | * EW Sudakov logs \\ quality of a leading-log approximation for NLO EW corrections, real W/Z emission, two-loops and beyond, etc. | |
| - | ===different powers of coupling constants:=== | + | * more? |
| - | + | ||
| - | allow different settings for different subprocesses | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | example: | + | |
| - | AlphasOrder 2 (global setting) | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | process x AlphasOrder 3 ; AlphaOrder 1 (use these orders in alpha_s, alpha only for process x) | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | process y AlphasOrder 4 ; AlphaOrder 0 | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | This setup can be used for merged samples as well as mixed QCD/EW corrections. | + | |
| - | It can also be used to pass additional information referring only to particular subprocesses, e.g. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | process x AlphasOrder 3 ; AlphaOrder 1 ; AmplitudeType LoopInduced | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | ===EW corrections:=== | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | no changes wrt the last version of the draft. | + | |
| - | Importance to keep the EW Scheme option "UserDefined" was stressed. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | ===Polarisation/Colour:=== | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | Conventions for polarisation vectors already have been fixed at the last meeting. | + | |
| - | For special options concerning colour | + | |
| - | (terms in 1/N expansion, not colour summed, etc) it was felt that this should be | + | |
| - | "hardwired" between the particular OLP/MC providers to follow the individual needs. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | ===Restrictions such as diagram filters, exploitation of special symmetries, etc:=== | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | Also rather something where the particular OLP/MC providers (humans) should talk to each other. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | + | ||
| - | + | ||
| - | Test cases to try out implementation of the new settings: | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | === Z+1/Z+2 jets; dijet/3jets === | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | + | ||
| - | Test cases will be discussed on Monday June 10, 15h00, Library. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | + | ||
| - | + | ||
| - | + | ||
| - | b) Implementation of corrections (in particular EW) in Monte Carlo programs (e.g. Sherpa) | + | |
| - | + | ||

| - | 4) **Top Decays** | + | |
| - | a) handling top decays in processes like tTH, tTbB and tTjj | + | |
