Cluster Hadronisation in Sherpa

Abstract

We present the Sherpa cluster hadronization model and a simple model for non-perturbative colour reconnections. Using two different parton shower implementations we tuned the model to data and we show typical resulting distributions that are sensitive to hadronization effects in $e^{+}{e}^{-}$--annihilations into hadrons.
