Comparisons of experimental data with theoretical predictions for collider processes containing hadronic jets rely on shower Monte Carlo event generators to include corrections to perturbative calculations from hadronization, parton…
Event generators play an important role in all physics programs at the Large Hadron Collider and beyond. Dedicated efforts are required to tune the parameters of event generators to accurately describe data. There are many tuning methods…
In this talk, we discuss recent developments in combining parton showers and fixed-order calculations. We focus on the UNNLOPS method for matching next-to-next-to-leading order computations to the parton shower, and we present results from…
Prediction deviations of different uncertainties have varying impacts on downstream decision-making. Improving the prediction accuracy of critical uncertainties with significant impacts on decision-making quality yields better optimization…
We present novel predictions for the production of $W^+W^-$ pairs in hadron collisions that are next-to-next-to-leading order accurate and consistently matched to a parton shower (NNLOPS). All diagrams that lead to the process $pp\to e^-…
We have developed a Monte Carlo event generator for non-resonant diphoton ($\gamma\gamma$) production at hadron collisions in the framework of GR@PPA, which consistently includes additional one-jet production. The jet-matching method…
In this contribution the new event generation framework Sherpa will be presented. It aims at the full simulation of events at current and future high-energy experiments, in particular the LHC. Some results related to the production of jets…
We extend the multi-purpose Monte-Carlo event generator Sherpa to include processes in deeply inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering. Hadronic final states in this kinematical setting are characterised by the presence of multiple kinematical…
A method to construct Monte-Carlo event generators at arbitrarily non-leading order is explained for the case of a non-gauge theory. A precise and correct treatment of parton kinematics is provided. Modifications of the conventional…
We carry out the first detailed calculations of jet production associated with $W$ gauge bosons in Pb+Pb collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In our calculations, the production of $W$+jet in p+p collisions as a reference is…
We report on a detailed investigation of the next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to $W\gamma$+jet production at the Tevatron and the LHC using a fully-flexible parton-level Monte Carlo program. We include the full leptonic decay of…
We review recent NLO QCD results for W,Z + 3-jet production at hadron colliders, computed using BlackHat and SHERPA. We also include some new results for Z + 3-jet production at the LHC at 7 TeV. We report new progress towards the NLO cross…
We have developed a Monte Carlo event generator for non-resonant diphoton ($\gamma\gamma$) production at hadron collisions in the framework of GR@PPA, which consistently includes processes having additional one jet radiation. The possible…
Photoproduction is an important mode for the production of jets and electro-weak particles at lepton--lepton and lepton--hadron colliders and allows for interesting studies of exclusive production at hadron--hadron colliders. In this talk,…
This is the user's manual of [email protected]. This package is a practical implementation, based upon the HERWIG event generator, of the recently proposed MC@NLO formalism for matching the next-to-leading order calculation of a QCD process with a…
We describe the Monte Carlo event generator WOPPER for four fermion production through W-pairs including resummed leading logarithmic QED radiative corrections.
For systems that involve particle production through branching processes the concept of chaos is explored. The measures that can describe their behaviors are investigated. Monte Carlo simulation is used to generate events according to…
Complex numerical weather prediction models incorporate a variety of physical processes, each described by multiple alternative physical schemes with specific parameters. The selection of the physical schemes and the choice of the…
The generation of unit-weight events for complex scattering processes presents a severe challenge to modern Monte Carlo event generators. Even when using sophisticated phase-space sampling techniques adapted to the underlying transition…
We present a study of higher order QCD corrections beyond NLO to processes with an electroweak vector boson, W or Z, in association with jets. We focus on the regions of high transverse momenta of commonly used differential distributions.…
