چکیده

We describe the recent developments to extend the multi-parton interaction model of underlying events in Herwig++ into the soft, nonperturbative, regime. This allows the program to describe also minimum bias collisions in which there is no hard interaction, for the first time. It is publicly available from versions 2.3 onwards and describes the Tevatron underlying event and minimum bias data. The extrapolations to the LHC nevertheless suffer considerable ambiguity, as we discuss.

Simulation of multiple partonic interactions in Herwig++

In this paper we describe a new model of multiple partonic interactions that has been implemented in Herwig++. Tuning its two free parameters we find a good description of CDF underlying event data. We show extrapolations to the LHC.

HERWIG for Top Physics at the Linear

We discuss recent improvement in the treatment of gluon radiation in top production and decay in e + e − processes according to the HERWIG event generator and show studies on the top mass reconstruction at the future Linear Collider. For the sake of performing precision measurements of top quark properties at the future Linear Collider, trustworthy Monte Carlo simulations of multiparton radiati...

Vector Boson Transverse Momentum Distributions at the Tevatron

We show vector boson transverse momentum distributions at the Tevatron, obtained by running the HERWIGMonte Carlo event generator with matrixelement corrections. We compare our results with some recent DØ and CDF data. Vector boson production at hadron colliders is a fundamental process to test Quantum Chromodynamics and the Standard Model of the electroweak interactions. The lowest order proce...

The Herwig 5.9 cluster hadronization model is briefly discussed here. It is shown that the model has peculiar behaviour when new heavy baryon resonances are included in the Herwig 5.9 particle table. New fragmentation model is proposed to cure this problem and simple tuning of Herwig 5.9 with this new model has been made using event shapes variables and identified particle momentum spectra in e...
