Resonance- and Width-aware Parton Shower Evolution and NLO Matching
Stefan Höche, Daniel Reichelt
We introduce a technique for the next-to-leading order accurate simulation of that respects the resonant nature of the process above and near the top-qua…
A simple algorithm for polarized parton evolution
Stefan Höche, Mareen Hoppe, Daniel Reichelt
We present an algorithm to include the correlation between the production and decay planes of gluons in a parton-shower simulation. The technique is based on identifying the charge…
Massive tree-level splitting functions beyond kinematical limits
Stefan Höche, Matt LeBlanc, Jennifer Roloff +1
We present a compact form of the massive tree-level QCD splitting functions and discuss a decomposition of the results in terms of lower-order expressions, scalar dipole a…
QCD splitting functions beyond kinematical limits
John M. Campbell, Stefan Höche, Max Knobbe +2
We present a systematic decomposition of QCD splitting functions into scalar dipole radiators and pure splitting remainders up to second order in the strong coupling. The individua…
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…
