Parton showering with higher-logarithmic accuracy for soft emissions

Silvia Ferrario Ravasio, Keith Hamilton, Alexander Karlberg +3

The accuracy of parton-shower simulations is often a limiting factor in the interpretation of data from high-energy colliders. We present the first formulation of parton showers wi…

Matching and event-shape NNDL accuracy in parton showers

Keith Hamilton, Alexander Karlberg, Gavin P. Salam +2

To explore the interplay of NLO matching and next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) parton showers, we consider the simplest case of and Higgs-boson decays to and r…

PanScales showers for hadron collisions: all-order validation

Melissa van Beekveld, Silvia Ferrario Ravasio, Keith Hamilton +4

We carry out extensive tests of the next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) accuracy of the PanScales parton showers, as introduced recently for colour-singlet production in hadron colli…

Soft spin correlations in final-state parton showers

Keith Hamilton, Alexander Karlberg, Gavin P. Salam +2

We introduce a simple procedure that resolves the long-standing question of how to account for single-logarithmic spin-correlation effects in parton showers not just in the colline…

Colour and logarithmic accuracy in final-state parton showers

Keith Hamilton, Rok Medves, Gavin P. Salam +2

Standard dipole parton showers are known to yield incorrect subleading-colour contributions to the leading (double) logarithmic terms for a variety of observables. In this work, co…

Parton showers beyond leading logarithmic accuracy

Mrinal Dasgupta, Frédéric A. Dreyer, Keith Hamilton +3

Parton showers are among the most widely used tools in collider physics. Despite their key importance, none so far has been able to demonstrate accuracy beyond a basic level known…
