Underlying Events in Herwig++ *

چکیده
In this contribution we describe the new model of multiple partonic interactions (MPI) that has been implemented in Herwig++. Tuning its two free parameters is enough to find a good description of CDF underlying event data. We show extrapolations to the LHC and compare them to results from other models.

Soft interactions in Herwig++
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. T...
متن کاملMatrix-Element Corrections to Parton Shower Simulations for Higgs Hadroproduction
We implement matrix-element corrections to HERWIG parton shower simulations for Standard Model Higgs boson production at hadron colliders. We study the Higgs transverse momentum distribution and compare different versions of HERWIG and resummed calculations. The HERWIG results exhibit a remarkable improvement as many more events are generated at large transverse momentum after the inclusion of ...

متن کاملAn eikonal model for multiparticle production in hadron - hadron interactions
We introduce an eikonal Monte Carlo model (running in conjunction with HERWIG) for simulating multiparticle production in hadron-hadron interactions. We compare our simulated data to the CDF Tevatron measurement of the underlying event activity in hard inelastic proton-antiproton scattering at √ s=1.8 TeV. By fixing the only free parameter in our model, the total hadron-hadron cross section , w...
متن کاملVector 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...
