= {{{VPolar}}}: The Standard Model at NLO in QCD with helicity-polarized W and Z bosons = === Contact Author === Richard Ruiz * Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Science (IFJ PAN) * rruiz AT ifj.edu.pl In collaboration with: M. Javurkova, R.C.L. de Sá, and J. Sandesara arXiv:xxx.yy [ [#Javurkova 1] ] D. Buarque Franzosi, O. Mattelaer, and Sujay Shil arXiv:1912.01725 [ [#BuarqueFranzosi 2] ] ==== Usage resources ==== * For instructions and examples on using the VPolar UFO libraries, see M. Javurkova, et al, arXiv:xxx.yy [ [#Javurkova 1] ] * For additional background, see also D. Buarque Franzosi, et al, arXiv:1912.01725 [ [#BuarqueFranzosi 2] ] * See '''Validation''' section below for additional information * '''Special note:''' this UFO was developed using MG5aMC and calls the '''1L''', '''1T''', and '''1A''' propagators defined in ALOHA (see '''aloha_object.py''' and ''create_aloha.py''). These may be defined differently in other generators. If they are not defined in your favorite generators, they must be added to the ''propagators.py'' file in the {{{VPolar}}} UFO. The file '''particles.py''' must then be updated to reflect the propagator names. R. Ruiz is happy to assist with this. ==== Citation requests ==== * If using the UFO, please cite , see M.
