EKHARA - new gamma gamma generator

Abstract

The Monte Carlo generator EKHARA allows to simulate the process (e+e- to e+e-pi0) at energies of meson factories. We review the motivation, describe the current status of the generator, and discuss features, which will appear in the forthcoming releases: the two-photon production of eta and eta-prime mesons.
