We report an implementation of the hadron-hadron ($pp$ and $p\bar{p}$) collision mode to the Monte Carlo event generator ReneSANCe - the code that was previously developed for $e^+e^-$ collisions. The described extension of ReneSANCe…
Hadronization is a complex quantum process whereby quarks and gluons become hadrons. The widely-used models of hadronization in event generators are based on physically-inspired phenomenological models with many free parameters. We propose…
Hadron production is investigated in proton-proton (pp) collisions at \surds = 7 TeV LHC energy - especially outside the cones of identified jets. We improved the original CDF definition of underlying event and introduce surrounding…
We present a new 3D resolved model for the initial state of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, based on the $k_\perp$-factorized Color Glass Condensate hybrid approach. The McDIPPER framework responds to the need for a…
In pursuit of precise and fast theory predictions for the LHC, we present an implementation of the MadNIS method in the MadGraph event generator. A series of improvements in MadNIS further enhance its efficiency and speed. We validate this…
In high-energy heavy-ion collisions, propagation of the energy deposited into the medium by energetic partons that traverse the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) leads to Mach-cone-like jet-induced medium response. Full simulations of such…
We use the SHERPA Monte Carlo generator to simulate the process $e^+e^-\rightarrow\mbox{hadrons}$ using matrix elements with up to six partons in the final state. Two samples of SHERPA events are generated. In the "LO" sample, all final…

We present a study for the generation of events from a physical process with deep generative models. The simulation of physical processes requires not only the production of physical events, but also to ensure these events occur with the…
We present a systematic analysis of heavy-flavour production in the underlying event in connection to a leading hard process in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, using the PYTHIA 8 Monte Carlo event generator. We compare results from…
The modelling of multiple parton interactions in Monte Carlo event generators is a crucial part not only for the dressing of signal processes but also to describe data with a minimum bias on the event selection. Much work has and will be…
