Constraining MPI models using sigma_effective and recent Tevatron and LHC Underlying Event data

arXiv:1307.5015 · doi:10.1007/JHEP10(2013)113

Abstract

We review the modelling of multiple interactions in the event generator Herwig++ and study implications of recent tuning efforts to Tevatron and LHC data. It is often said that measurements of the effective cross section for double-parton scattering, sigma_effective, are in contradiction with models of the final state of multi-parton interactions, but we show that the Herwig++ model is consistent with both and gives stable predictions for underlying event observables at 14 TeV.
