Event generation with Sherpa 3 (2024)
Journal Article
Bothmann, E., Flower, L., Gütschow, C., Höche, S., Hoppe, M., Isaacson, J., Knobbe, M., Krauss, F., Meinzinger, P., Napoletano, D., Price, A., Reichelt, D., Schönherr, M., Schumann, S., & Siegert, F. (2024). Event generation with Sherpa 3. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024(12), Article 156. https://doi.org/10.1007/jhep12%282024%29156

Sherpa is a general-purpose Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of particle collisions in high-energy collider experiments. We summarise new developments, essential features, and ongoing improvements within the Sherpa 3 release series. Phy... Read More about Event generation with Sherpa 3.

Hard diffraction in SHERPA (2024)
Journal Article
Krauss, F., & Meinzinger, P. (2024). Hard diffraction in SHERPA. The European Physical Journal C, 84(9), Article 894. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-024-13295-3

We present the first complete simulation framework for the simulation of jet production in diffractive events at next-to leading order in QCD, matched to the parton shower. We validate the implementation in the SHERPA event generator with data from t... Read More about Hard diffraction in SHERPA.

Event generators for high-energy physics experiments (2024)
Journal Article
Campbell, J. M., Diefenthaler, M., Hobbs, T. J., Höche, S., Isaacson, J., Kling, F., Mrenna, S., Reuter, J., Alioli, S., Andersen, J. R., Andreopoulos, C., Ankowski, A. M., Aschenauer, E. C., Ashkenazi, A., Baker, M. D., Barrow, J. L., van Beekveld, M., Bewick, G., Bhattacharya, S., Bierlich, C., …Zapp, K. (2024). Event generators for high-energy physics experiments. SciPost Physics, 16(5), Article 130. https://doi.org/10.21468/scipostphys.16.5.130

We provide an overview of the status of Monte-Carlo event generators for high-energy particle physics. Guided by the experimental needs and requirements, we highlight areas of active development, and opportunities for future improvements. Particular...

Resolved photons in Sherpa (2024)
Journal Article
Höche, S., Krauss, F., & Meinzinger, P. (2024). Resolved photons in Sherpa. The European Physical Journal C, 84(2), Article 178. https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-024-12551-w

We present the first complete simulation framework, in the event generator, for resolved photon interactions at next-to leading order accuracy. It includes photon spectra obtained through the equivalent-photon approximation, parton distribution funct... Read More about Resolved photons in Sherpa.

Hadron-level NLO predictions for QCD observables in photo-production at the Electron-Ion Collider (2024)
Journal Article
Meinzinger, P., & Krauss, F. (2024). Hadron-level NLO predictions for QCD observables in photo-production at the Electron-Ion Collider. Physical Review D, 109(3), Article 034037. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.109.034037

We present the first next-to-leading order accurate hadron-level predictions for inclusive QCD and jet observables in photo-production for electron-proton beams at the upcoming electron-ion collider. Our predictions show large 𝐾 factors of about 60%... Read More about Hadron-level NLO predictions for QCD observables in photo-production at the Electron-Ion Collider.
