NLLjet: a Monte Carlo code for e+e- QCD jets including next-to-leading order terms
Description
Abstract NLLjet, a Monte Carlo generator for the parton shower in e^+ e^- -annihilation has been developed. It can be used to determine the QCD Λ-parameter from e^+ e^- -jet events since it includes the next-to-leading order contribution. Title of program: NLLjet Catalogue Id: ABZA_v1_0 Nature of problem For the study of jets in high energy reactions, a Monte-Carlo event generator of QCD is indispensable. In order to determine the QCD fundamental parameter, i.e., the strong coupling constant, the parton- shower method including next-to-leading order terms is required.
