Monte Carlo simulations of heavy particles for the Large Hadron Collider

As the Large Hadron Collider has switched on at CERN in Geneva, accurate predictions for complex hadronic processes are essential for the validation of theory and therefore the success of the machine. After motivating the requirement for a Monte Carlo event generator, the principles and Physics behi...
