WHIZARD is a program system designed for the efficient calculation of
multi-particle scattering cross sections and simulated event samples.
The events can be written to file in STDHEP or ASCII format.
Tree-level matrix elements are generated automatically for arbitrary
partonic processes by calling external programs (OMEGA, MADGRAPH and
CompHEP). Matrix elements obtained by alternative methods (e.g.,
including loop corrections) may be interfaced as well. The program is
able to calculate numerically stable signal and background cross
sections and generate unweighted event samples with reasonable
efficiency for processes with up to six final-state particles.
Polarization is treated exactly for both the initial and final states.
Final-state quark or lepton flavors can be summed over automatically
where needed. For Linear Collider physics, beamstrahlung (CIRCE) and
ISR spectra are included for electrons and photons. Currently,
WHIZARD supports the Standard Model, optionally with anomalous
couplings, but model extensions or completely different models can be
added.
The WHIZARD manual can be found in the subdirectory 'doc'. The manual
describes the installation and usage of WHIZARD.
