CompHEP 4.4 - Automatic Computations from Lagrangians to Events
We present a new version of the CompHEP program (version 4.4). We describe
shortly new issues implemented in this version, namely, simplification of quark
flavor combinatorics for the evaluation of hadronic processes, Les Houches
Accord based CompHEP-PYTHIA interface, processing the color configurations of
events, implementation of MSSM, symbolical and numerical batch modes, etc. We
discuss how the CompHEP program is used for preparing event generators for
various physical processes. We mention a few concrete physics examples for
CompHEP based generators prepared for the LHC and Tevatron.Comment: The paper has been presented on IX International Workshop on Advanced
Computing and Analysis Techniques in Physics Research December 1-5, 2003.

Tevatron-for-LHC Report: Top and Electroweak Physics
Final report of the Top and Electroweak Working Group after several meetings of the TeV4LHC Workshop held at the FNAL, BNL and CERN from September 2004 to fall 2005.The top quark and electroweak bosons (W and Z) represent the most massive fundamental particles yet discovered, and as such refer directly to the Standard Model's greatest remaining mystery: the mechanism by which all particles gained mass. This report summarizes the work done within the top-ew group of the Tevatron-for-LHC workshop. It represents a collection of both Tevatron results, and LHC predictions. The hope is that by considering and comparing both machines, the LHC program can be improved and aided by knowledge from the Tevatron, and that particle physics as a whole can be enriched. The report includes measurements of the top quark mass, searches for single top quark production, and physics of the electroweak bosons at hadron colliders
