We perform two tunes of the SHERPA Monte Carlo generator for the generation of $e^+e^-rightarrowmbox{hadrons}$ using the publicly-available LEP analyses in Rivet. In each of these tunes, we generate events at $sqrt{s}=91.25mbox{ GeV}$ using matrix elements for final states containing up to six partons. In the first, LO tune, matrix elements for all final states are generated at leading order; in the second, NLO tune, matrix elements for final states with up to four partons are generated at next-to-leading order using BlackHat, while those for states with five and six partons are generated at leading order. The tunes are accomplished using Professor, and comparisons with unfolded LEP1 and LEP2 data are produced with Rivet. We also compare the data with events generated with KK2f interfaced to PYTHIA using the standard ALEPH tune. We find that both SHERPA samples show improvement relative to KK2f for observables related to four-jet final states, while all three samples produce comparable results for event-shape variables. Overall, the agreement with data is best for the LO tune. We provide our tuning parameters and many data-Monte Carlo comparisons.

We use the SHERPA Monte Carlo generator to simulate the process $e^+e^-rightarrowmbox{hadrons}$ using matrix elements with up to six partons in the final state. Two samples of SHERPA events are generated. In the LO sample, all final states are generated with leading order matrix elements; in the NLO sample, matrix elements for final states with up to four partons are generated at next-to-leading order, while matrix elements for final states with five or six partons are generated at leading order. The resulting samples are then passed through the ALEPH detector simulation. We compare the Monte Carlo samples to each other, to samples generated using the KK2f generator interfaced with PYTHIA, and to the archived ALEPH data at both LEP1 and LEP2 energies. We focus on four-jet observables with particular attention given to dijet masses. The LO and NLO SHERPA samples show significant improvement over the KK2f generation for observables directly related to clustering events into four jets, while maintaining similar performance to KK2f for event-shape variables. We additionally reweight the dijet masses using LEP1 data and find that this greatly improves the agreement between the three Monte Carlo samples at LEP2 energies for these observables.
Monte-Carlo generator with photon jets radiation in collinear regions for the process eegg is described in detail. Radiative corrections in the first order of $alpha$ are treated exactly. Large leading logarithmic corrections coming from collinear regions are taken into account in all orders of $alpha$ by applying the Structure Function approach. Theoretical precision of the cross section with radiative corrections is estimated to be 0.2%. This process is considered as an additional tool to measure luminosity in forthcoming experiments with the CMD-3 detector at the $e^+e^-$ collider VEPP-2000.
The processes $e^+e^-to D_s^+ D_{s1}(2460)^- +c.c.$ and $e^+e^-to D_s^{ast +} D_{s1}(2460)^- +c.c.$ are studied for the first time using data samples collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. The Born cross sections of $e^+e^-to D_s^+ D_{s1}(2460)^- +c.c.$ at nine center-of-mass energies between 4.467,GeV and 4.600,GeV and those of $e^+e^-to D_s^{ast +} D_{s1}(2460)^- +c.c.$ at ${sqrt s}=$ 4.590,GeV and 4.600,GeV are measured. No obvious charmonium or charmonium-like structure is seen in the measured cross sections.
The Monte Carlo program {tt WWGENPV}, designed for computing distributions and generating events for four-fermion production in $e^+ e^- $ collisions, is described. The new version, 2.0, includes the full set of the electroweak (EW) tree-level matrix elements for double- and single-$W$ production, initial- and final-state photonic radiation including $p_T / p_L$ effects in the Structure Function formalism, all the relevant non-QED corrections (Coulomb correction, naive QCD, leading EW corrections). An hadronisation interface to {tt JETSET} is also provided. The program can be used in a three-fold way: as a Monte Carlo integrator for weighted events, providing predictions for several observables relevant for $W$ physics; as an adaptive integrator, giving predictions for cross sections, energy and invariant mass losses with high numerical precision; as an event generator for unweighted events, both at partonic and hadronic level. In all the branches, the code can provide accurate and fast results.
Recently, various cross sections of e+e- annihilation into hadrons were accurately measured in the energy range from 0.37 to 1.39 GeV with the CMD-2 detector at the VEPP-2M collider. In the pi+pi- channel a systematic uncertainty of 0.6% has been achieved. A Monte-Carlo Generator Photon Jets (MCGPJ) was developed to simulate events of the Bhabha scattering as well as production of two charged pions, kaons and muons. Based on the formalism of Structure Functions, the leading logarithmic contributions related to the emission of photon jets in the collinear region are incorporated into the MC generator. Radiative corrections (RC) in the first order of alpha are accounted for exactly. The theoretical precision of the cross sections with RC is estimated to be better than 0.2%. Numerous tests of the program as well as comparison with other MC generators and CMD-2 experimental data are presented.
