Multivariable evolution in final state parton shower algorithms
arXiv:2201.08056 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.105.054012
Abstract
One can use more than one scale variable to specify the family of surfaces in the space of parton splitting parameters that define the evolution of a parton shower. Considering annihilation, we use two variables, with shower evolution following a special path in this two dimensional space. In addition, we treat in a special way the part of the splitting function that has a soft emission singularity but no collinear singularity. This leads to certain advantages compared to the usual shower formulation with only one scale variable.
