Detailed Description

AlpgenHooks: provides Alpgen file reading options. Note that it is defined with virtual inheritance, so that it can be combined with other UserHooks classes, see e.g. main32.cc.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AlpgenHooks ( Pythia pythia)

Constructor and destructor.


Main implementation of AlpgenHooks class. This may be split out to a separate C++ file if desired, but currently included here for ease of use.Constructor: provides the 'Alpgen:file' option by directly changing the Pythia 'Beams' settings

If LHAupAlpgen needed, construct and pass to Pythia

Member Function Documentation

bool initAfterBeams ( )
inlinevirtual

Override initAfterBeams routine from UserHooks.


Initialisation routine which is called by pythia.init(). This happens after the local pointers have been assigned and after Pythia has processed the Beam information (and therefore LHEF header information has been read in), but before any other internal initialisation. Provides the remaining 'Alpgen:*' options.

Read in ALPGEN specific configuration variables

If ALPGEN parameters are present, then parse in AlpgenPar object

Set masses if requested

Set MLM:nJets if requested

Set MLM merging parameters if requested

Warn if setMLM requested, but parameters not present

Initialisation complete.

Reimplemented from UserHooks.
