     12=== Aim of the project ===
     13We study QCD radiation in SUSY events, such as gluino-gluino, stop-stop, stop-gluino processes.
     14We use the MLM matching and verify/improve the results of
     15[http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/0510144 Tilman, David and Peter], and in particular we investigate
     16whether the extra hard jets in SUSY events are well described by the parton-shower, as it is usually claimed,
     17or if matching gives a better description. We also study the matching in heavy tops events as a reference and
     18the SM background needed in these kind of analysis. The SM samples will be used also for other applications.

     23
     24=== Work ===
     25We have identified two phases:
     26   1. MC samples generation and validation
     27   2. Physics results and paper writeup
     28 
     29==== MC samples generation and validation ====
     30The strategy here is to first generate samples at the after-showering level to perform the validation.
     31Once all samples are validated, we'll do the full Pythia-PGS simulation.
     32
     33===== Generation =====
     34====== Standard Model Samples (Simon) ======
     35To get a faster generation we:
     36   *  define a new model (smzerobmass), where the bmass is set to "Zero" in the particles.dat. This optimizes the  flavor sum
     37   * We don't decay the Z, W+,W-, and tops. We'll let these particles be decayed by Pythia. In doing this we loose spin correlations, which, however are irrelevant for the multi-jet samples for this type of studies.
     38   * Not to generate the single particle samples for Z and W. These have a negligible impact on the multi-jet
     39 configurations we are interested in.
     40   * In Pythia, we consider only decays of W into leptons (e, mu and tau) and also into neutrinos for Z.

     78Explanation of notation:
     79   * 4x2 runs means 4 unmatched, 4 matched runs with the different shower params
     80   * 4 params means with the 4 different shower params
     81   * decay jet #s means number of jets from decays
     82   * jet numbers means plot of number of jets above (say) 50 GeV in the events
