HEPTAPOD: Orchestrating High Energy Physics Workflows Towards Autonomous Agency

Tony Menzo, Alexander Roman, Sergei Gleyzer +5

Many theoretical and experimental workflows in high-energy-physics (HEP) stand to benefit from recent advances in transformer-based large language models (LLMs). While early applic…

Iterative HOMER with uncertainties

Anja Butter, Ayodele Ore, Sofia Palacios Schweitzer +10

We present iHOMER, an iterative version of the HOMER method to extract Lund fragmentation functions from experimental data. Through iterations, we address the information gap betwe…

Bayesian Optimization of Pythia8 Tunes

Ali Al Kadhim, Harrison B Prosper, Stephen Mrenna

A new tune (set of model parameters) is found for the six most important parameters of the Pythia8 final state parton shower and hadronization model using Bayesian optimization. Th…

Post-hoc reweighting of hadron production in the Lund string model

Benoît Assi, Christan Bierlich, Philip Ilten +6

We present a method for reweighting flavor selection in the Lund string fragmentation model. This is the process of calculating and applying event weights enabling fast and exact v…

New physics particles mixing with mesons: production in the fragmentation chain

Yehor Kyselov, Stephen Mrenna, Maksym Ovchynnikov

A class of extensions to the Standard Model adds hypothetical long-lived particles (LLPs) that have mass- or kinetic-mixing with neutral mesons, such as pions or rho mesons. The mi…

The Critical Importance of Software for HEP

HEP Software Foundation, :, Christina Agapopoulou +24

Particle physics has an ambitious and broad global experimental programme for the coming decades. Large investments in building new facilities are already underway or under conside…

Characterizing the hadronization of parton showers using the HOMER method

Benoit Assi, Christian Bierlich, Philip Ilten +6

We update the HOMER method, a technique to solve a restricted version of the inverse problem of hadronization -- extracting the Lund string fragmentation function from data…
