MadDipole : Automation of the dipole subtraction method in MadGraph/MadEvent
Author
Summary, in English
We present the implementation of the dipole subtraction formalism for the real radiation contributions to any next-to-leading order QCD process in the MadGraph/MadEvent framework. Both massless and massive dipoles are considered. Starting from a specific (n+1)-particle process the package provides a Fortran code for all possible dipoles to all Born processes that constitute the subtraction term to the (n+1)-particle process. The output files are given in the usual ''MadGraph StandAlone'' style using helicity amplitudes.
