LHC Forward Physics
K. Akiba, M. Akbiyik, M. Albrow +184
The goal of this report is to give a comprehensive overview of the rich field of forward physics, with a special attention to the topics that can be studied at the LHC. The report…
Diffractive Physics
A. D. Martin, H. Hoeth, V. A. Khoze +3
`Soft' high-energy interactions are clearly important in pp collisions. Indeed, these events are dominant by many orders of magnitude, and about 40% are of diffractive origin; that…
Systematic improvement of QCD parton showers
Jan Winter, Stefan Hoeche, Hendrik Hoeth +5
In this contribution, we will give a brief overview of the progress that has been achieved in the field of combining matrix elements and parton showers. We exemplify this by focusi…
Diffraction and correlations at the LHC: definitions and observables
V. A. Khoze, F. Krauss, A. D. Martin +2
We note that the definition of diffractive events is a matter of convention. We discuss two possible `definitions': one based on unitarity and the other on Large Rapidity Gaps (LRG…
The NLO multileg working group: summary report
Z. Bern, S. Dittmaier, L. Dixon +44
This report summarizes the activities of the NLM working group of the Workshop "Physics at TeV Colliders", Les Houches, France, 11-29 June, 2007.
Supersymmetry Simulations with Off-Shell Effects for LHC and ILC
K. Hagiwara, W. Kilian, F. Krauss +5
At the LHC and at an ILC, serious studies of new physics benefit from a proper simulation of signals and backgrounds. Using supersymmetric sbottom pair production as an example, we…
Studying W+W- production at the Fermilab Tevatron with SHERPA
T. Gleisberg, F. Krauss, A. Schaelicke +2
The merging procedure of tree-level matrix elements with the subsequent parton shower as implemented in SHERPA will be studied for the example of W boson pair production at the Fer…
SHERPA 1.alpha, a proof-of-concept version
T. Gleisberg, S. Hoeche, F. Krauss +3
The new multipurpose event-generation framework SHERPA, acronym for Simulation for High-Energy Reactions of PArticles, is presented. It is entirely written in the object-oriented p…
Report of the QCD Working Group
A. Ballestrero, P. Bambade, S. Bravo +17
The activities of the QCD working group concentrated on improving the understanding and Monte Carlo simulation of multi-jet final states due to hard QCD processes at LEP, i.e. quar…
