NNLL resummation for the production of four top quarks
Melissa van Beekveld, Anna Kulesza, Michele Lupattelli +1
Four-top production is one of the rarest processes of the Standard Model observable at the Large Hadron Collider, offering sensitivity to the top Yukawa coupling, Higgs width, and…
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…
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…
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…
A Phenomenological Analysis of LHC Neutrino Scattering at NLO Accuracy Matched to Parton Showers
Melissa van Beekveld, Silvia Ferrario Ravasio, Eva Groenendijk +3
We perform a detailed phenomenological study of high-energy neutrino deep inelastic scattering (DIS) focused on LHC far-forward experiments such as FASER and SND@LHC. To this ai…
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…
