We present the recently published MadDM v.3.0, now a plugin of Madgraph5_aMC@NLO.
The new release extends the capabilities of the previous versions with a dedicated module for dark matter indirect detection. MadDM is now able to generate energy spectra from dark matter annihilation, calculate cosmic rays fluxes and compare the theory predictions with the Fermi-LAT upper limits from the...
Introduction as a new MCnet Ph.D. student at LU and short description of the first research project
A short introduction about myself as a new PhD student at Lund University.
The Pythia event generator has seen a lot of progress relating to modeling heavy ion collisions, in the parton-level stacking framework known as Angantyr. Several of the ideas behind Angantyr are, however, not local to Pythia, and it is therefore possible to implement them in a generator independent way.
We present the initial version of such an implementation, which essentially allows for...
Presenting the first set of LL corrections to sub-leading processes within W+Jets in HEJ. This adds resummation to many processes previously only matched to FO.
Double parton scattering is usually suppressed by single parton scattering. However, in some specific regions of phase-space, the differential cross-sections are comparable. Also, for a given final state, it might happen that the double parton scattering is the dominant contribution if the single parton scattering is suppressed by a higher multiplicity of couplings. For these reasons, it turns...
Most parton showers currently work in the leading colour limit, allowing for coherent gluonic radiation through either angular ordering or the dipole/antenna formalist. For photon emission, the equivalent type of radiation in QED, there is no leading colour limit and the soft structure is more complicated. In this talk, I will discuss how we are including photonic emissions into the Vincia...
Following the recent measurements I did within the CMS collaboration I will bring up some still remaining open issues in closely back-to-back dijet topologies in 2- and 3-jet inclusive events. There are considerable differences observed (up to 15%) and 2- and 3-jet data is not described by any of the models considered simultaneously. Also the unexpected behavior of Madgraph interfaced with...
