Vector Boson Fusion
Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to generate (electroweak) vector boson fusion events. In particular I would like to simulate qq' -> qq'VV, where each of the (anti)quarks radiate a V and the V's pairwise scatter into a pair of V's. V is either W+,W-, or Z.
I had thought to try something like "generate w+ w- > w+ w-" and then explicitly write out each possible scattering, but this does not work (I assume since there's no w component to the proton PDF). I also tried "generate p p > j j w+ w- / a QCD=0" but this also generates some diagrams that are not vector boson fusion and by excluding the photon I've also excluded some diagrams I want such as the w+ and w- scattering with an s-channel photon.
Thanks for your assistance!
