Pythia decay table changes
Please be aware of that Pythia version has been updated in p20
production release.
D0 uses Pythia v6_155 in p10 production release, Pythia v6_203 in
p11-p14 production releases, Pythia v6_319 in p17 and early p20, but
now will be moving to Pythia v6_413 in p20. The decay table has been
changed!
PYTHIA
v6_129/v6_155 Decay Table is used up to mcp10
PYTHIA
v6_203 Decay Table is used for mcp11-mcp14
PYTHIA
v6_319 Decay Table is used for mcp17-mcp20
PYTHIA
v6_413 Decay Table is used for mcp20
To generate Pythia
events
using p20 one shouldn't use any p17 Pythia cards where the decay of the
following
particles are forced:
- R-handed W', Z' and neutrinos
- virtual graviton
- technicolour particles
