Description

In the context of HERWIG6.5, we present Monte Carlo data showing the comparison between the parton shower generated by the standard DGLAP-CS kernels and that generated by the new IR-improved DGLAP-CS kernels recently developed by one of us(BFLW). This is done by implementing the new kernels in HERWIG6.5 to generate a new MC, HERWIRI1.0, for hadron-hadron interactions at high energies. Possible implications for LHC phenomenology and comparisons with FNAL data are also discussed.
