KKMCee: Multiphoton MC for lepton and quark pair production at lepton colliders

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We present an overview of the Monte Carlo event generator KKMCee for lepton and quark pair production in the high energy electron-positron annihilation process. We note that it is still the most sophisticated event generator for such processes. Its entire source code has been rewritten in C++. We have verified that the new version, KKMCee 5.00, reproduces the benchmarks of the older code in FORTRAN 77. We discuss a number of improvements in the MC algorithm.
