contents KKMChh adapts the soft photon exponentiation of the program KKMC, initially for electron-positron annihilation, to hadron collisions, where it must interface to a parton shower and parton distribution functions (PDFs) which may already include effects of QED radiation. We describe the NISR (Negative Initial State Radiation) algorithm developed to consistently interface with PDFs including QED effects, and present results on its effect on some distributions of phenomenological interest.
