Notes on JETPHOX
Spinners
Some notes about JETPHOX. When the questions arose during Hal's talk on direct gamma
my mike was broken.
Dave Underwood
Jetphox does direct production of gamma-jet in LO and NLO,
and also separately does background which is other QCD sources of photons in LO and NLO.
There are links to papers by the group which wrote it and supports it, and I have some excerpts from CERN WIKI pages
Jetphox uses any of the hundred or so PDF methods which are compiled in the LHAPDF program / collection.
The general links are:

some details are in:

There is a lot of discussion of isolation cuts, how the programs work, etc in
Eur.Phys.J. C 16, 311 (2000) [hep-ph/9911340]
Even though this particular paper is motivated by 2 gamma production faking the Higgs..
Jetphox has two modes but also two kinds of output for each mode, and also LO or NLO.
A) parton level rapidity acceptance cuts for jets and gamma i.e. histogram mode like a theory curve.
but you must still put in isolation cuts around the photon for the generator
and it still does higher order photon radiation, not only compton direct gamma
It also makes separate histograms of the photons from parton -> fragmentation
B) event generation with fragmentation of the away side jet
(7 or 8 fragmentation models are available)
and you have to use the event trees and your own jet processing
I have not used this yet, and am still learning about it.
===================================================================
I ran jetphox again with the jet cut (parton) set the way Jean-Philipe Guillet told me to.
For now I have jet cuts at +- 0.7 in rapidity, photon cuts at 1.05 to 2.0
isolation 5% of E gamma within cone of 0.2
pdf is CTEQ66
This is all extremely preliminary but encouraging for the learning curve.
