%T The WHIZARD generator: Status report, News and Plans
%M PUBDB-2023-03463
%D 2023
%X We give a status report on new developments in the WHIZARD event generator,including NLO electroweak automation for e+e-, loop-induced processes, POWHEGmatching, new features in the UFO interface and the current development formatching between exclusive photon radiation and fixed-order LO/NLO EWcorrections. We report on several bug fixes relevant for certain aspects of theILC250 MC mass production, especially on the normalization of matching EPAsamples with full-matrix element samples. Finally, we mention some ongoingwork on efficiency improvements regarding parallelization of matrix elementsand phase space sampling, as well as plans to revive the top thresholdsimulation.
