Description

Four-lepton processes such as e+e- -> e+e+e-e-, e+e- -> e+e-μ+μ-, e+e- -> μ+μ+μ-μ-, e+e- -> μ+μ-tausup(;)tau+ are descibed by a (sub)set of 36 Feynman diagrams. In the e+e- -> e+e+e-e- case all these graphs contribute and give rise to 657 different peaks of the differential cross section in a seven dimensional phase-space. The MC program presented here can produce unweighted events for these processes, while all masses and peaks are properly taken into account. Moreover, it can also be used for the simulation of e+e- -> e+e-Qanti q and e+e- -> μ+μ-qanti q. (orig.)
