Cat's cradle diagrams for substructure studies
Peter Skands
We propose Cat's Cradle diagrams as a framework to analyse the perturbative accuracy of gauge quantum field theories across different kinematic regions, interpolating between the p…
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…
Strangeness enhancement in pp collisions from string closepacking in Pythia 8.3
Javira Altmann, Lorenzo Bernardinis, Peter Skands +1
Measurements at LHC show an increased production of strange hadrons with charged multiplicity in pp collisions, which is not described by the Lund String Model (with the Monash tun…
Timelike showers with jet recoils
Jack Helliwell, Ludovic Scyboz, Peter Skands
We propose a new way to impose four-momentum conservation on timelike parton-shower branchings, allowing for recoil to be imparted not only to individual partons but also to groups…
Closepacking effects on strangeness and baryon production at the LHC
Javira Altmann, Lorenzo Bernardinis, Peter Skands +1
Data from the LHC show a rise in strange-hadron production with charged-particle multiplicity in pp collisions. The Monte-Carlo event generator PYTHIA, using its default Monash tun…
Sudakov evolution without unitarity
Javira Altmann, Hai Tao Li, Ludovic Scyboz +1
We present a method for sampling singular functions defined on (nested) multi-particle phase spaces, based on a generalisation of parton-shower phase-space generation techniques. A…
