Analytic parton showers for WHIZARD — •Sebastian Schmidt — Physikalisches Intitut, Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg

I present analytic algorithms for initial and final state parton showers that are to be implemented in the WHIZARD event generator. The algorithm for final state radiation is based on the GenEvA algorithm, the algorithm for initial state radiation is a new development. Results and a comparison to PYTHIA are shown.
