Hadron-hadron collision mode in ReneSANCe-v1.3.0
Abstract
We report an implementation of the hadron-hadron (pp and p p bar) collision mode to the Monte Carlo event generator ReneSANCe - the code that was previously developed for e+e- collisions. The described extension of ReneSANCe currently contains neutral and charged current Drell-Yan processes pp [ p p bar ] → ZX →ℓ+ℓ- X, pp [ p p bar ] →W+ X →ℓ+νℓ X and pp [ p p bar ] →W- X →ℓ-νbarℓ X. We take into account complete one-loop electroweak (EW) and one-loop QCD corrections to these processes. The calculation is based on the SANC (Support for Analytic and Numeric Calculations for experiments at colliders) modules. The generator is constructed in such a way that new processes can be easily added. The paper contains a theoretical description of the SANC approach, numerical validations and a manual.
