The Physics of Herwig 7
J. Bellm, G. Bewick, S. Ferrario Ravasio +23
We present the physics foundations and recent developments of Herwig 7, the modern successor of the original HERWIG and Herwig++ series. Herwig 7 provides a flexible and systematic…
HEJ 2.2: W boson pairs and Higgs boson plus jet production at high energies
Jeppe R. Andersen, Bertrand Ducloué, Conor Elrick +6
We present version 2.2 of the High Energy Jets (HEJ) Monte Carlo event generator for hadronic scattering processes at high energies. The new version adds support for two further pr…
High-energy logarithmic corrections to the QCD component of same-sign W-pair production
Jeppe R. Andersen, Bertrand Ducloué, Conor Elrick +3
We describe the calculation of the QCD contribution to same-sign -pair production, , resumming all contributions scaling as $α_W^4 α_s^{2+k}\log^k(\…
Logarithmic corrections to the QCD component of same-sign W-pair production for VBS studies
Jeppe R. Andersen, Bertrand Ducloué, Conor Elrick +3
We present the results of the first calculation of the logarithmic corrections to the QCD contribution to same-sign -pair production, , for same-sig…
Herwig 7.2 Release Note

Monte Carlo simulations of Higgs-boson production at the LHC with the KrkNLO method
S. Jadach, G. Nail, W. Placzek +3
We present numerical tests and predictions of the KrkNLO method for matching of NLO QCD corrections to hard processes with LO parton shower Monte Carlo generators (NLO+PS). This me…
Les Houches 2015: Physics at TeV Colliders Standard Model Working Group Report
S. Badger, J. Bendavid, V. Ciulli +92
This Report summarizes the proceedings of the 2015 Les Houches workshop on Physics at TeV Colliders. Session 1 dealt with (I) new developments relevant for high precision Standard…
Parton Shower Uncertainties with Herwig 7: Benchmarks at Leading Order
Johannes Bellm, Graeme Nail, Simon Plätzer +2
We perform a detailed study of the sources of perturbative uncertainty in parton shower predictions within the Herwig 7 event generator. We benchmark two rather different parton sh…
NLO efforts in Herwig++
Christian Reuschle, Johannes Bellm, Stefan Gieseke +13
With the advent and recent extension of the BLHA standard to interface Monte Carlo event generators and one-loop matrix element providers, the Herwig++ event generator has expanded…
Herwig 7.0 / Herwig++ 3.0 Release Note
Johannes Bellm, Stefan Gieseke, David Grellscheid +13
A major new release of the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig++ (version 3.0) is now available. This release marks the end of distinguishing Herwig++ and HERWIG development and the…
The shape of spins
Christoph Englert, Dorival Goncalves, Graeme Nail +1
After the discovery of a Higgs-like particle at the LHC, the determination of its spin quantum numbers across different channels will be the next step in arriving at a more precise…
