Journal Article
Reichelt, D., Richardson, P., & Siodmok, A. (2017). Improving the simulation of quark and gluon jets with Herwig 7. The European Physical Journal C, 77(12), Article 876. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-017-5374-8

The properties of quark and gluon jets, and the differences between them, are increasingly important at the LHC. However, Monte Carlo event generators are normally tuned to data from e+e−e+e− collisions which are primarily sensitive to quark-initiate...

Colour Reconnections in Quark and Gluon Jets in Herwig 7 (2017)
Journal Article
Reichelt, D., Richardson, P., & Siódmok, A. (2017). Colour Reconnections in Quark and Gluon Jets in Herwig 7. Acta Physica Polonica B, 48(6), 1167-1173. https://doi.org/10.5506/aphyspolb.48.1167

Major event generators deviate significantly in their description of quark and gluon initiated jets. The modelling of these is particularly sensitive to the colour reconnection model used in the cluster hadronization model in the event generator Herw...
