We describe the architecture and functionalities of a C++ software framework, coined PARTONS, dedicated to the phenomenology of Generalized Parton Distributions. These distributions describe the three-dimensional structure of hadrons in…
A method for incorporating information from next-to-leading order QCD matrix elements for hadronic diboson production into showering event generators is presented. In the hard central region (high jet transverse momentum) where perturbative…
Pipelined algorithms implemented in field programmable gate arrays are being extensively used for hardware triggers in the modern experimental high energy physics field and the complexity of such algorithms are increases rapidly. For…
This article presents updates to lifex [Africa, SoftwareX (2022)], a C++ library for high-performance finite element simulations of multiphysics, multiscale and multidomain problems. In this release, we introduce an additional intergrid…
A Markovian shower algorithm based on "sector antennae" is presented and its main properties illustrated. Tree-level full-color matrix elements can be automatically incorporated in the algorithm and are re-interpreted as process-dependent 2…
Aboria is a powerful and flexible C++ library for the implementation of particle-based numerical methods. The particles in such methods can represent actual particles (e.g. Molecular Dynamics) or abstract particles used to discretise a…
We present a new parton-shower algorithm. Borrowing from the basic ideas of dipole cascades, the evolution variable is judiciously chosen as the transverse momentum in the soft limit. This leads to a very simple analytic structure of the…
Event generators play a crucial role in the exploration of LHC physics. This presentation summarizes news and plans for the three general-purpose pp generators HERWIG, PYTHIA and SHERPA, as well as briefer notes on a few other generators.…
The history and the present status of the GR@PPA event generator are briefly reviewed. The development of GR@PPA started in 2000 in order to provide a framework of NLO event generators for hadron collision interactions. After the first…
The inability to predict lasting languages and architectures led us to develop OCCA, a C++ library focused on host-device interaction. Using run-time compilation and macro expansions, the result is a novel single kernel language that…
A major new release of the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig++ (version 3.0) is now available. This release marks the end of distinguishing Herwig++ and HERWIG development and therefore constitutes the first major release of version 7 of…
As the industry's interest in machine learning has grown in recent years, some solutions have emerged to safely embed them in safety-critical systems, such as the C code generator ACETONE. However, this framework is limited to generating…
We describe the recent development of the Herwig++ event generator.
The Adapteva Epiphany many-core architecture comprises a scalable 2D mesh Network-on-Chip (NoC) of low-power RISC cores with minimal uncore functionality. Whereas such a processor offers high computational energy efficiency and parallel…
The updated version of the Helac-Phegas event generator is presented. The matrix elements are calculated through Dyson-Schwinger recursive equations. Helac-Phegas generates parton-level events with all necessary information, in the most…
We introduce CASC: a new, modern, and header-only C++ library which provides a data structure to represent arbitrary dimension abstract simplicial complexes (ASC) with user-defined classes stored directly on the simplices at each dimension.…
We report on our exploration of matching matrix element calculations with the parton-shower models contained in the event generators HERWIG and Pythia. We describe results for e+e- collisions and for the hadroproduction of W bosons and…
We present Version 2 of system Cplus2ASP, which implements the definite fragment of action language C+. Its input language is fully compatible with the language of the Causal Calculator Version 2, but the new system is significantly faster…
Magrathea is an open-source C++ code for modeling the internal structure of differentiated planets. The initial release, Huang et al. (2022), introduced the base solver, a modular framework for defining equations of state (EOSs) used within…
A new release of the Monte Carlo program Herwig++ (version 2.5) is now available. This version comes with a number of improvements including: new next-to-leading order matrix elements, including weak boson pair production; a colour…
