Matching Z Hadrons at NNLO with Sector Showers
Basem Kamal El-Menoufi, Christian T. Preuss, Ludovic Scyboz +1
We present a detailed technical derivation of matching conditions at next-to-next-to-leading order in the sectorised VINCIA parton shower, by considering leading-colour 2-, 3- and…
NNLO Matrix-Element Corrections in VINCIA
Peter Skands, Christian T. Preuss
We report on a new formalism for parton showers whose fixed-order expansion can be corrected through next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in QCD. It is the first such formalism we…
A general algorithm to build mixed real and virtual antenna functions for higher-order calculations
Oscar Braun-White, Nigel Glover, Christian T Preuss
The antenna-subtraction technique has demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in providing next-to-next-to-leading order in (NNLO) predictions for a wide range of processes rel…
A comprehensive guide to the physics and usage of PYTHIA 8.3
Christian Bierlich, Smita Chakraborty, Nishita Desai +11
This manual describes the PYTHIA 8.3 event generator, the most recent version of an evolving physics tool used to answer fundamental questions in particle physics. The program is m…
HL-LHC Computing Review Stage-2, Common Software Projects: Event Generators
The HSF Physics Event Generator WG, :, Efe Yazgan +36
This paper has been prepared by the HEP Software Foundation (HSF) Physics Event Generator Working Group (WG), as an input to the second phase of the LHCC review of High-Luminosity…
A Study of QCD Radiation in VBF Higgs Production with Vincia and Pythia
Stefan Höche, Stephen Mrenna, Shay Payne +2
We discuss and illustrate the properties of several parton-shower algorithms available in Pythia and Vincia, in the context of Higgs production via vector boson fusion (VBF). In pa…
