Comments Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 07/May/12 ] First seria of improvements have been implemented for 9.5ref03 and 9.5patch01. Mass correction should be included for 9.5ref05 Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 11/Jun/12 ] Corrections have been provided for 9.6beta. Validation is ongoing. Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 25/Jun/12 ] A separate model for hadron elastic scattering have been released with 9.6beta. Validation will continue with summer student who already arrived in Q3. Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 20/Sep/12 ] Fix on single scattering part (wrong cross section at low-energy) was introduced and will be available with ref-09, some further modification may be expected for ref-09 as well. Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 20/Sep/12 ] ATLAS peoples proumise to have results on new validation study using the reaction Z>mu+mu-. Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 20/Sep/12 ] Completed, in general, extra fixes (if any) may be applied after full validation of muons scattering for ref-09. Comment by Vladimir Ivantchenko [ 11/Oct/12 ] ATLAS reported that updated version of WentzelVI model provides unbiased position and shape of Z-boson in mu+mu- decay channel.
