PHOTOS Monte Carlo: A Precision tool for QED corrections in $Z$ and $W$ decays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a discussion of the precision for the PHOTOS Monte Carlo algorithm, with improved implementation of QED interference and multiple-photon radiation, and they found that the current version of PHOTOS is of 0.1% in the case of Z and W decays.

The τ decay library TAUOLA, version 2.4

TL;DR: The τ decay library TAUOLA as discussed by the authors has been enriched with more than twenty decay channels, including leptonic modes τ- → nνe-to nνμ-(γ), (b) one-meson modes: νπ-, νK-, (c) t wo-mesons modes: τπ-π- π0(ϱ-), νk0π- (K∗-), etc.

Radiative Corrections to Fermi Interactions

TL;DR: In this article, the decay spectrum of polarized muons is recalculated taking into account a mistake in our previous work which was recently pointed out by Berman, and the radiative corrections to the spectrum and lifetime of the nuclear β decay arising from the charge interactions of the electron and proton are also studied.
