Hadronic footprint of GeV-mass dark matter (2020)
Journal Article
Plehn, T., Reimitz, P., & Richardson, P. (2020). Hadronic footprint of GeV-mass dark matter. SciPost Physics, 8(6), Article 092. https://doi.org/10.21468/scipostphys.8.6.092

GeV-scale dark matter is an increasingly attractive target for direct detection, indirect detection, and collider searches. Its annihilation into hadronic final states produces a challenging zoo of light hadronic resonances. We update Herwig7 to stud... Read More about Hadronic footprint of GeV-mass dark matter.

Herwig 7.2 release note (2020)
Journal Article
Bellm, J., Bewick, G., Ferrario Ravasio, S., Gieseke, S., Grellscheid, D., Kirchgaeßer, P., Loshaj, F., Masouminia, M. R., Nail, G., Papaefstathiou, A., Plätzer, S., Podskubka, R., Rauch, M., Reuschle, C., Richardson, P., Schichtel, P., Seymour, M. H., Siódmok, A., & Webster, S. (2020). Herwig 7.2 release note. The European Physical Journal C, 80(5), Article 452. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-020-8011-x

A new release of the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig (version 7.2) is now available. This version introduces a number of improvements over the major version 7.0, notably: multi-jet merging with the dipole shower at LO and NLO QCD; spin correlation... Read More about Herwig 7.2 release note.

Logarithmic accuracy of angular-ordered parton showers (2020)
Journal Article
Bewick, G., Ravasio, S. F., Richardson, P., & Seymour, M. H. (2020). Logarithmic accuracy of angular-ordered parton showers. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020(4), Article 19. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep04%282020%29019

We study the logarithmic accuracy of angular-ordered parton showers by considering the singular limits of multiple emission matrix elements. This allows us to consider different choices for the evolution variable and propose a new choice which has bo... Read More about Logarithmic accuracy of angular-ordered parton showers.

Robust Independent Validation of Experiment and Theory: Rivet version 3 (2020)
Journal Article
Bierlich, C., Buckley, A., Butterworth, J., Christensen, C. H., Corpe, L., Grellscheid, D., Grosse-Oetringhaus, J. F., Gutschow, C., Karczmarczyk, P., Klein, J., Lönnblad, L., Pollard, C. S., Richardson, P., Schulz, H., & Siegert, F. (2020). Robust Independent Validation of Experiment and Theory: Rivet version 3. SciPost Physics, 8(2), Article 026. https://doi.org/10.21468/scipostphys.8.2.026

First released in 2010, the RIVET library forms an important repository for analysis code, facilitating comparisons between measurements of the final state in particle collisions and theoretical calculations of those final states. We give an overview... Read More about Robust Independent Validation of Experiment and Theory: Rivet version 3.
