We seek a model which describes both the high-energy soft $pp$ data and has the perturbative QCD attributes expected in the low x, relatively low Q^2 domain. We describe the present status of this endeavour.
In this paper we describe a theoretical framework and algorithms for implementing QCD corrections to top quark decays in the Herwig++ event generator. The dominant corrections, due to soft and collinear emissions, are summed to all orders…
Spin effects in strong interaction high energy processes are subtle phenomena which involve both short and long distance physics and test perturbative and non perturbative aspects of QCD. Moreover, depending on quantities like interferences…
