Top Pair Threshold Revisited
Torbjörn Sjöstrand, Valery A. Khoze, Christian T. Preuss
Recently the CMS and ATLAS collaborations have found evidence for an unexpectedly large ttbar cross section in the threshold region, with an excess of the order of 5-10 pb relative…
On the threshold behaviour of heavy top production
Torbjörn Sjöstrand
The observation of an excess of ttbar production in the threshold region, by CMS and ATLAS, has been interpreted as a toponium contribution, i.e. from below-threshold ttbar virtual…
Road map for the tuning of hadronic interaction models with accelerator-based and astroparticle data
Johannes Albrecht, Julia Becker Tjus, Noah Behling +52
In high-energy and astroparticle physics, event generators play an essential role, even in the simplest data analyses. As analysis techniques become more sophisticated, e.g. based…
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…
