Christian Bauer (LBNL) "GENEVA: Combining perturbative calculations with parton showers"
May 10, 2018 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
ABSTRACT:
I will discuss the event generator GENEVA, which for the first time combines fixed order and resummed perturbative calculations with parton showering and hadronization. I will explain the basic physics concepts underlying GENEVA, and show how they can be used to achieve in principle any accuracy desired. After presenting physics results on the production of vector boson + jets at the LHC, I will finish by giving an overview of how to use GENEVA.
