New developments in event generator tuning techniques
Andy Buckley, Hendrik Hoeth, Heiko Lacker +2
Data analyses in hadron collider physics depend on background simulations performed by Monte Carlo (MC) event generators. However, calculational limitations and non-perturbative ef…
Systematic event generator tuning for the LHC
Andy Buckley, Hendrik Hoeth, Heiko Lacker +2
In this article we describe Professor, a new program for tuning model parameters of Monte Carlo event generators to experimental data by parameterising the per-bin generator respon…
Monte Carlo event generator validation and tuning for the LHC
Andy Buckley, Hendrik Hoeth, Holger Schulz +1
We summarise the motivation for, and the status of, the tools developed by CEDAR/MCnet for validating and tuning Monte Carlo event generators for the LHC against data from previous…
