30<h2>Left-Right-Symmetry Processes</h2>
31
32At current energies, the world is left-handed, i.e. the Standard Model
33contains an <i>SU(2)_L</i> group. Left-right symmetry at some larger
34scale implies the need for an <i>SU(2)_R</i> group. Thus the particle
35content is expanded by right-handed <i>Z_R^0</i> and <i>W_R^+-</i>
36and right-handed neutrinos. The Higgs fields have to be in a triplet
37representation, leading to doubly-charged Higgs particles, one set for
38each of the two <i>SU(2)</i> groups. Also the number of neutral and
39singly-charged Higgs states is increased relative to the Standard Model,
40but a search for the lowest-lying states of this kind is no different
41from e.g. the freedom already accorded by the MSSM Higgs scenarios.
42
43<p/>
44PYTHIA implements the scenario of [<a href="Bibliography.php" target="page">Hui97</a>].
45
46<p/>
47The <i>W_R^+-</i> has been implemented as a simple copy of the
48ordinary <i>W^+-</i>, with the exception that it couples to
49right-handed neutrinos instead of the ordinary left-handed ones.
50Thus the standard CKM matrix is used in the quark sector, and the
51same vector and axial coupling strengths, leaving only the mass as
52free parameter. The <i>Z_R^0</i> implementation (without interference
53with the photon or the ordinary <i>Z^0</i>) allows decays both to
54left- and right-handed neutrinos, as well as other fermions, according
55to one specific model ansatz. Obviously both the <i>W_R^+-</i>
56and the <i>Z_R^0</i> descriptions are likely to be simplifications,
57but provide a starting point.
58
59<p/>
60For the doubly-charged Higgses, the main decay modes implemented are
61<i>H_L^++ -> W_L^+ W_L^+, l_i^+ l_j^+ </i> (<i>i, j</i> generation
62indices) and <i>H_R^++ -> W_R^+ W_R^+, l_i^+ l_j^+</i>.
63
64<p/>
65The right-handed neutrinos can be allowed to decay further. Assuming them
66to have a mass below that of <i>W_R^+-</i>, they decay to three-body
67states via a virtual <i>W_R^+-</i>, <i>nu_Rl -> l+- f fbar'</i>,
68where both lepton charges are allowed owing to the Majorana character
69of the neutrinos. If there is a significant mass splitting, also
70sequential decays <i>nu_Rl -> l+- l'-+ nu'_Rl</i> are allowed.
71Currently the decays are isotropic in phase space. If the neutrino
72masses are close to or above the <i>W_R^</i> ones, this description
73has to be substituted by a sequential decay via a real <i>W_R^</i>
74(not implemented, but actually simpler to do than the one here).

77<h3>Production processes</h3>
78
79A few different production processes have been implemented, which normally
80would not overlap and therefore could be run together.
