What the heck should be in there. Let's do an outline.

Intro

Importance of MC Methods   SHORT

• important tool in particle physics

  • not just numerical
• somewhat romenatic: distilling information with entropy

• validation of new theories

  • some predictions are often more subtle than just the existense of new particles
  • backgrounds have to be substracted

Diphoton Process

• feynman diags and reaction formula
• higgs decay channel
• dihiggs decay
• pure QED
