    2121Details about the Minimal Higgsless Model can be found in the reference above. This implementation goes beyond that reference in two ways. It uses exact formulas for all the internal parameters and wavefunctions and the Goldstone bosons and ghosts are worked out in complete detail as is necessary for Feynman gauge. Full details about this implementation can be found in:

    41 Over 200 2->2 processes were run in a variety of ways. First, each process was compared between the original !LanHEP implementation and the current !FeynRules implementation. Second, each process was run across multiple monte-carlos including !CalcHEP, !CompHEP, !MadGraph and Sherpa. Third, each process was run in two different gauges, namely Feynman gauge (in !CalcHEP and !CompHEP) and in unitary gauge (in !CalcHEP, !MadGraph and Sherpa). The cross section was computed for each process and compared to one another. Agreement to better than 1% was found for all processes. The parameters for these calculations were taken as in the model files above. The energies and cuts for these calculations were:

    54 Each of these processes was also run at a single phase space point of the squared amplitude. In this test, only !CalcHEP in Feynman and unitary gauge and !MadGraph were used. It is planned to include Sherpa at a later date. The energies were chosen as in the cross section comparison. The angle was chosen to be 73.3 degrees. Agreement to better than 0.1% was found in all cases. Here are images of the results:
