This is the manual and user guide for the Rivet system for the validation and tuning of Monte Carlo event generators for high energy physics. As well as the core Rivet library, this manual describes the usage of the rivet program and the AGILe generator interface library. The depth and level of description is chosen for users of the system, starting with the basics of using validation code written by others, and then covering sufficient details to write new Rivet analyses and calculational components.

  1. A resonance-aware MC@NLO QCD+EW-matched calculation of lepton-pair production

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    First automated MC@NLO matching of NLO QCD+EW to an interleaved QCD+QED parton shower with resonance-aware dipole subtraction, validated for Drell-Yan lepton-pair production.

  2. Configuration and Benchmarking of $\mathrm{e}^+\mathrm{e}^-$ Processes with K4GeneratorsConfig

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0

    K4GeneratorsConfig automates the configuration and benchmarking of e+e- Monte Carlo generators, showing sub-permil agreement among three generators at LO.

  3. The Plan B Model: $Z^{\prime}$ collider phenomenology and discovery prospects

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    Current LHC data exclude a significant portion of the Plan B Model's preferred parameter space, and the HL-LHC could extend sensitivity to Z′ masses around 2.5 TeV.

  4. Quark-Lepton Unification Signatures

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0

    In the minimal low-scale quark-lepton unification model, scalar leptoquarks decay mainly to third-generation quarks and leptons, and current LHC measurements exclude masses below roughly 1.0–1.15 TeV in the y2=0 benchmark.

  5. Deciphering compressed electroweakino excesses with MadAnalysis 5

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    MadAnalysis 5 v1.11 adds efficiency-table handling, reference-frame observables, and statistical tools, then applies them to two ATLAS Run-2 analyses of compressed electroweakino signatures inside the NMSSM.

  6. TMD parton distributions from parton showers

    hep-ph 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Effective TMD parton distributions are derived from PYTHIA8 and HERWIG6 parton showers and compared with those from the Parton Branching method.

  7. An Introduction to PYTHIA 8.2

    hep-ph 2014-10 accept novelty 4.0

    PYTHIA 8.2 is a mature C++ event generator that combines hard processes, parton showers, multiparton interactions, and string fragmentation into a complete simulation framework for high-energy collisions.
