New observables in inclusive production of quarkonia

JP Lansberg - Physics Reports, 2020 - Elsevier
After an introduction motivating the study of quarkonium production, we review the recent
developments in the phenomenology of quarkonium production in inclusive scatterings of …

Multi-parton amplitudes in gauge theories

ML Mangano, SJ Parke - Physics Reports, 1991 - Elsevier
In this report we review recent developments in perturbation-theory methods for gauge
theories. We present techniques and results that are useful in the calculation of cross …

Observation of structure in the J/ψ-pair mass spectrum

LHCb Collaboration - Science bulletin, 2020 - Elsevier
Using proton-proton collision data at centre-of-mass energies of s= 7, 8 and 13 TeV
recorded by the LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an …

Event generator tunes obtained from underlying event and multiparton scattering measurements

V Khachatryan, AM Sirunyan, A Tumasyan… - The European Physical …, 2016 - Springer
New sets of parameters (“tunes”) for the underlying-event (UE) modelling of the pythia 8,

Tuning Monte Carlo generators: the perugia tunes

PZ Skands - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2010 - APS
We present 9 new tunes of the p⊥-ordered shower and underlying-event model in Pythia
6.4. These “Perugia” tunes update and supersede the older “S0” family. The data sets used …

PYTHIA 6.4 physics and manual

T Sjöstrand, S Mrenna, P Skands - Journal of High Energy …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
The Pythia program can be used to generate high-energy-physicsevents', ie sets of outgoing
particles produced in the interactions between two incoming particles. The objective is to …

A multiple-interaction model for the event structure in hadron collisions

T Sjöstrand, M Van Zijl - Physical Review D, 1987 - APS
A detailed model for hadronic events is presented, with particular emphasis put on the event
structure at low transverse momenta, ie,''beam jets''and ''minijets.''Specifically, we argue that …

Constraining MPI models using σ eff and recent Tevatron and LHC underlying event data

MH Seymour, A Siodmok - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract We review the modelling of multiple interactions in the event generator H erwig++
and study implications of recent tuning efforts to Tevatron and LHC data. It is often said that …

High-energy-physics event generation with PYTHIA 6.1

T Sjöstrand, P Eden, C Friberg, L Lönnblad… - Computer physics …, 2001 - Elsevier
Pythia version 6 represents a merger of the Pythia 5, Jetset 7 and SPythia programs, with
many improvements. It can be used to generate high-energy-physics 'events', ie sets of …

Merging multi-leg NLO matrix elements with parton showers

L Lönnblad, S Prestel - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 - Springer
A bstract We discuss extensions of multi-jet matrix element and parton shower merging
approaches, to also include next-to-leading order accuracy. Specifically, we generalise the …
