A generalised- jet algorithm for Deep Inelastic Scattering
Melissa van Beekveld, Silvia Ferrario Ravasio, Alexander Karlberg +1
We introduce an inclusive generalised- jet algorithm for Deep Inelastic Scattering, defined in the Breit frame and implemented in fjcontrib. The family of algorithms is govern…
The Monte Carlo Ecosystem in High-Energy Physics: A Primer
Melissa van Beekveld, Enrico Bothmann, Andy Buckley +3
Monte Carlo event generators are the central interface between theoretical calculations and experimental measurements in collider physics. Over several decades, a comprehensive and…
Logarithmically-accurate showers with massive quarks
Melissa van Beekveld, Silvia Ferrario Ravasio, Alba Soto-Ontoso +2
We formulate PanScales final-state showers that account for quark masses and achieve next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy, while preserving the original accuracy of the showers for…
A new suite of Lund-tree observables to resolve jets
Melissa van Beekveld, Luca Buonocore, Silvia Ferrario Ravasio +3
We introduce a class of collider observables, named Lund-Tree Shapes (LTS), defined from declustering trees originating from the Lund jet plane representation of the QCD radiation…
Event Generators for High-Energy Physics Experiments
J. M. Campbell, M. Diefenthaler, T. J. Hobbs +221
We provide an overview of the status of Monte-Carlo event generators for high-energy particle physics. Guided by the experimental needs and requirements, we highlight areas of acti…
A new standard for the logarithmic accuracy of parton showers
Melissa van Beekveld, Mrinal Dasgupta, Basem Kamal El-Menoufi +9
We report on a major milestone in the construction of logarithmically accurate final-state parton showers, achieving next-to-next-to-leading-logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy for the wid…
