// Comparison with some PYTHIA 6.413 cross sections process by process.
// Several processes have been left out to keep reasonable execution time.
// Some processes are not handled absolutely identically, so minor
// systematic differences may occur in addition to the statistical ones.
// (For some MSSM Higgs processes 6.413 has been modified to use
// running quark masses in loops, like 8.1, to allow proper comparison.)
// Subruns  0 -  5 : QCD jets
//          6 - 10 : prompt photons.
//         11 - 12 : t-channel gamma/Z/W exchange.
//         13 - 23 : gamma*/Z^0/W^+-, singly, in pairs or with parton
//         24 - 25 : onia.
//         26 - 30 : top.
//         31 - 40 : Standard Model Higgs.
//         41 - 45 : MSSM Higgses (trivial couplings).
//         46 - 47 : Z' and W' 
//         48 - 51 : Left-right-symmetric scenario.
//         52 - 52 : Leptoquark.
//         53 - 55 : Excited fermions (compositeness).
//         56 - 56 : excited Graviton (RS extra dimensions).
