HERBVI - a program for simulation of baryon and lepton number violating processes Original Research Article

We describe a Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of baryon- and lepton-number violating processes at supercolliders. The package, HERBVI, is designed as a hard-process generator interfacing to the general hadronic event simulation program HERWIG. In view of the very high multiplicity of gauge bosons expected in such processes, particular attention is paid to the efficient generation of multiparticle phase space. The program also takes account of the expected colour structure of baryon-number violating vertices, which has important implications for the hadronization of the final state.
