Helicity Antenna Showers for Hadron Colliders

Nadine Fischer, Andrew Lifson, Peter Skands

We present a complete set of helicity-dependent 2->3 antenna functions for QCD initial- and final- state radiation. The functions are implemented in the Vincia shower Monte Carlo f…

Combining states without scale hierarchies with ordered parton showers

Nadine Fischer, Stefan Prestel

We present a parameter-free scheme to combine fixed-order multi-jet results with parton-shower evolution. The scheme produces jet cross sections with leading-order accuracy in the…

Thermodynamical String Fragmentation

Nadine Fischer, Torbjörn Sjöstrand

The observation of heavy-ion-like behaviour in pp collisions at the LHC suggests that more physics mechanisms are at play than traditionally assumed. The introduction e.g. of quark…

The VINCIA Antenna Shower for Hadron Colliders

Peter Skands, Nadine Fischer, Stefan Prestel +1

We summarise the main features of VINCIA's antenna-based treatment of QCD initial- and final-state showers, which includes iterated tree-level matrix-element corrections and automa…

Vincia for Hadron Colliders

Nadine Fischer, Stefan Prestel, Mathias Ritzmann +1

We present the first public implementation of antenna-based QCD initial- and final-state showers. The shower kernels are antenna functions, which capture not only the coll…

Coherent Showers for the LHC

Nadine Fischer, Peter Skands

We present a full-fledged antenna shower for hadron collisions in the Vincia framework and focus on initial state radiation. The current version of the shower is limited to massles…

NLO efforts in Herwig++

Christian Reuschle, Johannes Bellm, Stefan Gieseke +13

With the advent and recent extension of the BLHA standard to interface Monte Carlo event generators and one-loop matrix element providers, the Herwig++ event generator has expanded…

Herwig 7.0 / Herwig++ 3.0 Release Note

Johannes Bellm, Stefan Gieseke, David Grellscheid +13

A major new release of the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig++ (version 3.0) is now available. This release marks the end of distinguishing Herwig++ and HERWIG development and the…

Measurement of observables sensitive to coherence effects in hadronic Z decays with the OPAL detector at LEP

Nadine Fischer, Stefan Gieseke, Stefan Kluth +3

A study of QCD coherence is presented based on a sample of about 397000 hadronic annihilation events collected at GeV with the OPAL detector at LEP. The stud…

Revisiting Radiation Patterns in Collisions

Nadine Fischer, Stefan Gieseke, Simon Plätzer +1

We propose four simple event-shape variables for semi-inclusive -jet events. The observables and cuts are designed to be especially sensitive to subleading aspects of…
