KKMCee: Multiphoton MC for lepton and quark pair production at lepton colliders

We present an overview of the Monte Carlo event generator KKMCee for lepton and quark pair production in the high energy electron-positron annihilation process. We note that it is still the most sophisticated event generator for such processes. Its entire source code has been rewritten in C++. We have verified that the new version, KKMCee 5.00, reproduces the benchmarks of the older code in FORTRAN 77. We discuss a number of improvements in the MC algorithm.

Abstract

We present an overview of the Monte Carlo event generator KKMCee for lepton and quark pair production in the high energy electron-positron annihilation process. We note that it is still the most sophisticated event generator for such processes. Its entire source code has been rewritten in C++. We have verified that the new version, KKMCee 5.00, reproduces the benchmarks of the older code in FORTRAN 77. We discuss a number of improvements in the MC algorithm.
