Parton color reconnection in Herwig 7 using a spacetime event topology
Johannes Bellm, Cody B. Duncan, Stefan Gieseke +2
Herwig 7 is a general-purpose Monte Carlo generator of particle collisions comprising both hard perturbative as well as soft phenomenological physics. Herwig is therefore capable t…
Confronting Experimental Data with Heavy-Ion Models: Rivet for Heavy Ions
Christian Bierlich, Andy Buckley, Christian Holm Christensen +11
The Rivet library is an important toolkit in particle physics, and serves as a repository for analysis data and code. It allows for comparisons between data and theoretical calcula…
Fragmentation of Two Repelling Lund Strings
Cody B Duncan, Peter Skands
Motivated by recent discoveries of flow-like effects in pp collisions, and noting that multiple string systems can form and hadronize simultaneously in such collisions, we develop…
Spacetime Colour Reconnection in Herwig 7
Johannes Bellm, Cody B Duncan, Stefan Gieseke +2
We present a model for generating spacetime coordinates in the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig 7, and perform colour reconnection by minimizing a boost-invariant distance measur…
Kinematic strangeness production in cluster hadronization
Cody B. Duncan, Patrick Kirchgaeßer
We present a modification to the non-perturbative strangeness production mechanisms in the Monte-Carlo event generator Herwig in order to make the processes more dynamic and collec…
