Abstract

The new multipurpose event-generation framework SHERPA, acronym for Simulation for High-Energy Reactions of PArticles, is presented. It is entirely written in the object-oriented programming language C++. In its current form, it is able to completely simulate electron-positron and unresolved photon-photon collisions at high energies. Also, fully hadronic collisions, such as, e.g., proton-anti-proton, proton-proton, or resolved photon-photon reactions, can be described.
