Abstract
An improved QED Parton Shower algorithm to calculate photonic radiative cor rections to QED processes at flavour factories is described. We consider th e possibility of performing photon generation in order to take into account also the effects due to interference between initial and final state radia tion. Comparisons with exact order a results are shown and commented. (C) 2 001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
