Phenomenology of the Interplay between IR-Improved DGLAP-CS Theory and NLO ME Matched Parton Shower MC Precision
arXiv:1208.4750 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2013.01.027
Abstract
We present the current status of the application of our approach of {\it exact} amplitude-based resummation in quantum field theory to precision QCD calculations, by realistic MC event generator methods, as needed for precision LHC physics.In this ongoing program of research, we discuss recent results as they relate to the interplay of the attendant IR-Improved DGLAP-CS theory of one of us and the precision of exact NLO matrix element matched parton shower MC's in the Herwig6.5 environment in relation to recent LHC experimental observations. There continues to be reason for optimism in the attendant comparison of theory and experiment.
