Detailed Description

The AntennaFunction base class. Base class implementation for all AntennaFunction objects.

Member Function Documentation

virtual double AltarelliParisi ( vector< double >  invariants,
vector< double >  mNew,
vector< int >  helBef,
vector< int >  helNew 
)
pure virtual

Optional implementation of the DGLAP kernels for collinear-limit checks Defined as PI/sij + PK/sjk, i.e. equivalent to antennae.

Implemented in AntXGSplitRFsec, AntXGSplitRF, AntQGEmitRFsec, AntQGEmitRF, AntQQEmitRF, AntXGSplitIF, AntGXConvIF, AntQXConvIF, AntGGEmitIF, AntGQEmitIF, AntQGEmitIF, AntQQEmitIF, AntGXConvII, AntQXConvII, AntGGEmitII, AntGQEmitII, AntQQEmitII, AntGQEmitFFsec, AntGXSplitFF, AntGGEmitFF, AntGQEmitFF, AntQGEmitFF, and AntQQEmitFF.

bool check ( )
virtual

Function to check singularities, positivity, etc.

Generic check of antenna function for use during initialisation.

Check soft singularity against massless dipole factor.

Test one symmetric and one asymmetric soft phase-space point.

Test invariants.

sIK is arbitrary, going to divide out in antFun anyway, inclusion is just for consistent notation.

Compute eikonal.

Compute antenna (without subleading-colour corrections).

Compare.

Test all helicity configurations for collinearity and posivity.

Check collinear singularities against massless AP kernels.

Test invariants, for a few points along collinear axis.

Test collinear limit on side 1.

Test collinear limit on side 2 (swap invariants).

Compute DGLAP kernels.

For g->qq antennae, there is only either an ij or jk collinear term.

Keep whichever is larger (more singular), kill the other

There is only an IJ singularity if hB is conserved.

Gluon emission: no external helicity flips for global antennae.

Are there any limits to check?

Compute antennae (without subleading colour corrections).

For global antennae, add "swapped" terms to represent neighbor.

Restore subleading-colour level.

Compare.

Require better than 5% agreement unless dominated by nonsingular.

Require better than 5% agreement unless dominated by nonsingular.

Check positivity.

Generate a random point in phase-space triangle.

Check positivity (strict).

Check for dead zones away from phase-space boundary.

End nPointsCheck sum for positivity checks.

Verbose output.

End helicity sum.

Reimplemented in AntennaFunctionIF, and AntennaFunctionIX.

string id2str ( int  id) const

Auxiliary function to translate an ID code to a string.

Auxiliary function to translate an ID code to a string, for constructing antenna names.

Vector bosons.

Fermions.

Octet fermion: use gluino.

Charged scalar: use H+.

Coloured scalars: use squarks.

Unknown particle.

bool init ( )
virtual

Default initialization.

The AntennaFunction base class.

Default initialization.

Check whether pointers are initialized.

Verbosity level.

Charge factor (Use same charge factor for AntQGEmit and AntGQEmit)

Subleading-colour treatment. modeSLC = 0: all gluon-emission antennae normalised to CA. modeSLC = 1: use colour factors as specified by user. modeSLC = 2: QQ gets CF, GG gets CA, QG gets interpolation.

Kinematics map type (first look for specific, else default to global).

Gluon emission antennae.

Gluon splitting antennae.

For gluon splittings, parton I is always emitter, K is recoiler.

Sector shower on/off and sectorDamp parameter.

Collinear partitioning (for global antennae). Note: forced to 1 for sector antennae.

Return.

Reimplemented in AntennaFunctionIF, and AntennaFunctionIX.

int initHel ( vector< int > *  helBef,
vector< int > *  helNew 
)
virtual

Method to initialise internal helicity variables.

Method to initialise internal helicity variables. Return value = number of helicity configurations to average over.

Initialise as unpolarised.

Check if one or more partons have explicit helicities.

Check if helicity assignments make sense.

How many configurations are we averaging over.

void initPtr ( Info infoPtrIn,
DGLAP dglapPtrIn 
)

Initialize pointers.

Initialize pointers. ParticleData: required for masses, colour charges, etc. Rndm: required to generate random test points to check antenna. Settings: required for all coefficients, switches, etc.
