Parton showering effects in central heavy-boson hadroproduction

Deak, M., Grebenyuk, A., Hautmann, F. et al.

Understand

If large-angle multigluon radiation contributes significantly to parton showers associated with heavy boson production at the LHC, appropriate parton branching methods are required for realistic Monte Carlo simulations of final states.

  • We report on a study illustrating such effects in the case of central scalar-boson production.
  • We comment on the possible impact of such studies on the modeling of multi-parton interactions.
