HELAC: a package to compute electroweak helicity amplitudes
Abstract
HELAC is a FORTRAN based package that is able to compute efficiently helicity amplitudes for arbitrary scattering processes within the standard electroweak theory. The algorithm exploits the virtues of the Dyson-Schwinger equations as compared to the traditional Feynman graph approach. All electroweak vertices are included in both the unitary and Feynman gauges, and computations including all mass effects are available. A version performing multi-precision computations with arbitrary - user defined - accuracy is also included, allowing access to any phase space point for arbitrary high energies.
