How to set ISR photon energy
Hi,
We have some questions regarding the electron beam PDFs in Whizard.
Typically, there should be a parameter to implement a cutoff that prevents divergence in ISR emission. However, we're unsure which specific variable serves this purpose effectively. For example, we can set an energy cutoff for the final state particles at the gen-level. Additionally, we've come across another parameter, isr_q_max, which seems to influence ISR productions. So, which parameter should we use to ensure the correct generation of ISR events?
Could you please clarify what isr_q_max represents? Is it the maximum energy of ISR photons or the minimum remaining energy after ISR photon emission?
Could I ask you for some help please ? Thanks.
Cheers
Jing-Hang Fu
