TAUOLA as tau Monte Carlo for future applications

The status of the Monte Carlo programs for the simulation of tau-lepton production and decay in high-energy accelerator experiments is reviewed. In particular, the status of the following packages is discussed: (i) TAUOLA for tau-lepton decay, (ii) PHOTOS for radiative corrections in decays, (iii) M...

description The status of the Monte Carlo programs for the simulation of tau-lepton production and decay in high-energy accelerator experiments is reviewed. In particular, the status of the following packages is discussed: (i) TAUOLA for tau-lepton decay, (ii) PHOTOS for radiative corrections in decays, (iii) MC-TESTER packages for various types of semi-automatic tests, and (iv) universal interface of TAUOLA for the decay of tau leptons produced by `any' generator. Emphasis is put on recent developments for high-precision tests and extensions of PHOTOS. Some considerations for the software organization necessary in future applications for Belle and BaBar will be given; examples of TAUOLA universal interface use will only be listed at the end of the review.
