%0 Journal Article %1 Maltoni2002MadEvent %A Maltoni, Fabio %A Stelzer, Tim %D 2002 %K event %T MadEvent: Automatic Event Generation with MadGraph %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/0208156 %X We present a new multi-channel integration method and its implementation in the multi-purpose event generator MadEvent, which is based on MadGraph. Given a process, MadGraph automatically identifies all the relevant subprocesses, generates both the amplitudes and the mappings needed for an efficient integration over the phase space, and passes them to MadEvent. As a result, a process-specific, stand-alone code is produced that allows the user to calculate cross sections and produce unweighted events in a standard output format. Several examples are given for processes that are relevant for physics studies at present and forthcoming colliders.
