Initial state radiation in the Herwig 7 angular-ordered parton shower (2022)
Journal Article
Bewick, G., Ravasio, S. F., Richardson, P., & Seymour, M. H. (2022). Initial state radiation in the Herwig 7 angular-ordered parton shower. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022(1), Article 26. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep01%282022%29026

We study the simulation of initial-state radiation in angular-ordered parton showers in order to investigate how different interpretations of the ordering variable affect the logarithmic accuracy of such showers. This also enables us to implement a r... Read More about Initial state radiation in the Herwig 7 angular-ordered parton shower.

Herwig 7.2 release note (2020)
Journal Article
Bellm, J., Bewick, G., Ferrario Ravasio, S., Gieseke, S., Grellscheid, D., Kirchgaeßer, P., …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.
