Iterative HOMER with uncertainties

Anja Butter, Ayodele Ore, Sofia Palacios Schweitzer +10

We present iHOMER, an iterative version of the HOMER method to extract Lund fragmentation functions from experimental data. Through iterations, we address the information gap betwe…

Post-hoc reweighting of hadron production in the Lund string model

Benoît Assi, Christan Bierlich, Philip Ilten +6

We present a method for reweighting flavor selection in the Lund string fragmentation model. This is the process of calculating and applying event weights enabling fast and exact v…

Characterizing the hadronization of parton showers using the HOMER method

Benoit Assi, Christian Bierlich, Philip Ilten +6

We update the HOMER method, a technique to solve a restricted version of the inverse problem of hadronization -- extracting the Lund string fragmentation function from data…

Rejection Sampling with Autodifferentiation - Case study: Fitting a Hadronization Model

Nick Heller, Phil Ilten, Tony Menzo +5

We present an autodifferentiable rejection sampling algorithm termed Rejection Sampling with Autodifferentiation (RSA). In conjunction with reweighting, we show that RSA can be use…

Describing Hadronization via Histories and Observables for Monte-Carlo Event Reweighting

Christian Bierlich, Phil Ilten, Tony Menzo +5

We introduce a novel method for extracting a fragmentation model directly from experimental data without requiring an explicit parametric form, called Histories and Observables for…

Towards a data-driven model of hadronization using normalizing flows

Christian Bierlich, Phil Ilten, Tony Menzo +5

We introduce a model of hadronization based on invertible neural networks that faithfully reproduces a simplified version of the Lund string model for meson hadronization. Addition…
