MAJOR 1.5 — A Monte Carlo generator for heavy Majorana neutrinos in ep collisions
Description
Abstract The Monte Carlo generator MAJOR 1.5 simulates the production and decay of heavy Majorana neutrinos via lepton mixing or exchange of 'light' right-handed W-bosons in deep inelastic scattering, i.e. e^± p → NX → e^± W^∓ X or v_e ZX. Physics and programming aspects are described in this manual. Title of program: MAJOR version 1.5 Catalogue Id: ADEQ_v1_0 Nature of problem Heavy Majorana neutrinos are predicted by extended versions of the standard model of electroweak interactions in particle physics. They can be produced in deep inelastic electron-proton scattering via lepton mixing or exchange of 'light' right-handed W-bosons (e+-p -> NX) and they decay into a lepton and a weak boson (N -> e+-W-+ or nu Z0). Versions of this program held in the CPC repository in Mendeley Data ADEQ_v1_0; MAJOR version 1.5; 10.1016/S0010-4655(96)00132-4 This program has been imported from the CPC Program Library held at Queen's University Belfast (1969-2019)
