two-photon scattering in e+e- collisions

Asked by Cesare Cazzaniga on 2021-03-10

Hello,

For my studies I would need to generate a two-photon scattering process in e+ e- collisions like:
       e+ e- -> gamma gamma e+ e- -> f+ f- e+ e-
Could you give me some suggestions on how to proceed ?

Many thanks in advance

I would do something like

generate a a > f+ f-
output
launch
set lpp 3 # PDF for elastic photon from electron beam
set ebeam ??? #energy of the electron beam
set fixed_scale ???
set no_parton_cut #if relevant

Cheers,

Olivier
