17 Resolution Need to introduce resolution t 0, e.g. a cutoff in p. Prevent us from the singularity at θ 0. Emissions below t 0 are unresolvable. Finite result due to virtual corrections: + = finite. unresolvable + virtual emissions are included in Sudakov form factor via unitarity (see below!). Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 8/45

18 Towards multiple emissions Starting point: factorisation in collinear limit, single emission. t dt z+ σ 2+ (t 0 ) = σ 2 (t 0 ) t 0 t dz α S z 2π ˆP(z) t = σ 2 (t 0 ) dtw(t). t 0 Multiple emissions (probabilistic) σ >2 (t 0 ) = σ 2 (t 0 ) k= ( = σ 2 (t 0 ) 2 k ( t ) k dtw(t) = σ 2 (t 0 )( k! t 0 2 (t 0,t) Sudakov Form Factor [ t ] (t 0,t) = exp dtw(t) t 0 ) e 2 t ) dtw(t) t0 Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 9/45

19 Towards multiple emissions Starting point: factorisation in collinear limit, single emission. t dt z+ σ 2+ (t 0 ) = σ 2 (t 0 ) t 0 t dz α S z 2π ˆP(z) t = σ 2 (t 0 ) dtw(t). t 0 Multiple emissions (probabilistic) σ >2 (t 0 ) = σ 2 (t 0 ) k= ( = σ 2 (t 0 ) 2 k ( t ) k dtw(t) = σ 2 (t 0 )( k! t 0 2 (t 0,t) ) e 2 t ) dtw(t) t0 Sudakov Form Factor in QCD [ t ] [ t dt z+ ] α S (z,t) (t 0,t) = exp dtw(t) = exp ˆP(z, t)dz t 0 t 0 t z 2π Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 9/45

20 Sudakov form factor Note that ( ) σ all = σ 2 + σ >2 = σ 2 + σ 2 2 (t 0,t), 2 (t 0,t) = σ 2 σ all. Two jet rate = 2 = P 2 (No emission in the range t t 0 ). Sudakov form factor = No emission probability. Often (t 0,t) (t). Hard scale t, typically CM energy or p of hard process. Resolution t 0, two partons are resolved as two entities if inv mass or relative p above t 0. P 2 (not P), as we have two legs that evolve independently. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 0/45

21 Sudakov form factor from Markov property Unitarity P( some emission ) + P( no emission ) = P(0 < t T) + P(0 < t T) =. Multiplication law (no memory) P(0 < t T) = P(0 < t t ) P(t < t T) Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 /45

22 Sudakov form factor from Markov property Unitarity P( some emission ) + P( no emission ) Multiplication law (no memory) = P(0 < t T) + P(0 < t T) =. P(0 < t T) = P(0 < t t ) P(t < t T) Then subdivide into n pieces: t i = n i T,0 i n. P(0 < t T) = lim n n i=0 = exp ( P(t i < t t i+ ) = lim n n i=0 lim n n i=0 P(t i < t t i+ ) ) ( P(ti < t t i+ ) ) ( T = exp 0 ) dp(t) dt. dt Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 /45

23 Sudakov form factor Again, no emission probability! So, P(0 < t T) = exp ( T 0 ) dp(t) dt dt dp(first emission at T) = dp(t) P(0 < t T) ( T ) dp(t) = dp(t)exp dt dt That s what we need for our parton shower! Probability density for next emission at t: dp(next emission at t) = dt t z+ z α S (z,t) 2π ˆP(z, t)dz exp 0 [ t dt z+ ] α S (z,t) ˆP(z, t)dz t 0 t z 2π Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 2/45

24 Parton shower Monte Carlo Probability density: dp(next emission at t) = dt t z+ z α S (z,t) 2π ˆP(z, t)dz exp [ t dt z+ ] α S (z,t) ˆP(z, t)dz t 0 t z 2π Conveniently, the probability distribution is (t) itself. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 3/45

25 Parton shower Monte Carlo Probability density: dp(next emission at t) = dt t z+ z α S (z,t) 2π ˆP(z, t)dz exp [ t dt z+ ] α S (z,t) ˆP(z, t)dz t 0 t z 2π Conveniently, the probability distribution is (t) itself. Hence, parton shower very roughly from (HERWIG):. Choose flat random number 0 ρ. 2. If ρ < (t max ): no resolvable emission, stop this branch. 3. Else solve ρ = (t max )/ (t) (= no emission between t max and t) for t. Reset t max = t and goto. Determine z essentially according to integrand in front of exp. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 3/45

26 Parton shower Monte Carlo Probability density: dp(next emission at t) = dt t z+ z α S (z,t) 2π ˆP(z, t)dz exp [ t dt z+ ] α S (z,t) ˆP(z, t)dz t 0 t z 2π Conveniently, the probability distribution is (t) itself. That was old HERWIG variant. Relies on (numerical) integration/tabulation for (t). Pythia, now also Herwig++, use the Veto Algorithm. Method to sample x from distribution of the type [ x ] dp = F(x)exp dx F(x ) dx. Simpler, more flexible, but slightly slower. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 3/45

27 Parton cascade Get tree structure, ordered in evolution variable t: Here: t > t 2 > t 3 ; t 2 > t 3 etc. Construct four momenta from (t i,z i ) and (random) azimuth φ. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 4/45

28 Parton cascade Get tree structure, ordered in evolution variable t: Here: t > t 2 > t 3 ; t 2 > t 3 etc. Construct four momenta from (t i,z i ) and (random) azimuth φ. Not at all unique! Many (more or less clever) choices still to be made. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 4/45

29 Parton cascade Get tree structure, ordered in evolution variable t: t can be θ, Q 2, p,... Choice of hard scale t max not fixed. Some hard scale. z can be light cone momentum fraction, energy fraction,... Available parton shower phase space. Integration limits. Regularisation of soft singularities.... Good choices needed here to describe wealth of data! Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 5/45

36 Soft emissions Only collinear emissions so far. Including collinear+soft. Large angle+soft also important. Soft emission: consider eikonal factors, here for q(p + q) q(p)g(q), soft g: u(p) ε p+ q + m ε (p + q) 2 u(p)p m2 p q soft factorisation. Universal, i.e. independent of emitter.

38 Soft emissions We define W ij = cosθ ij ( cosθ iq )( cosθ qj ) W(i) ij + W (j) ij with W (i) ij = ( ) W ij +. 2 cosθ iq cosθ qj W (i) ij is only collinear divergent if q i etc. After integrating out the azimuthal angles, we find dφiq 2π W(i) ij = That s angular ordering. cosθ iq (θ iq < θ ij ) 0 otherwise Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 2/45

39 Angular ordering Radiation from parton i is bound to a cone, given by the colour partner parton j. Results in angular ordered parton shower and suppresses soft gluons viz. hadrons in a jet. i j Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 22/45

Plätzer, ]] CS-Shower default by now, always matched via CKKW (see later). Pythia p T ordered shower (simple matching). Interleaved with Multiple partonic interactions. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 25/45

44 Resummation Sudakov FF basis for resummation. Radiator functions Γ i (t,t ) only retaining the leading log terms of the splitting function. Formulate parton shower in terms of generating functionals and obtain jet rates (in e + e, at k T resulution y). f 2 (s,y) = [ q (s) ] 2, f 3 (s,y) = 2 [ q (s) ] s 2 dtγ q (s,t) g (t), t 0 f 4 (s,y) = 2 [ q (s) ] { [ s ] 2 2 dtγ q (s,t) g (t) t 0 s s + dtγ q (s,t) g (t) dt [ Γ g (t,t ) g (t ) + Γ f (t,t ) f (t ) ] }. t 0 t 0 Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 26/45

50 Dipoles Exact kinematics when recoil is taken by spectator(s). Dipole showers. Ariadne. Recoils in Pythia. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 32/45

51 Dipoles Exact kinematics when recoil is taken by spectator(s). Dipole showers. Ariadne. Recoils in Pythia. New dipole showers, based on Catani Seymour dipoles. QCD Antennae. Goal: matching with NLO. Generalized to IS IS, IS FS. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 32/45

52 Dipole showers (ARIADNE, of course. Not invented for NLO matching.) Idea to use CS subtraction terms for parton shower immediately clear from Written up in [Nagy, Soper, JHEP 050:024 (2005)] Catani Seymour Dipole cascade codes recently implemented by Schumann, Krauss [ ] (with CKKW like matching) and (independently) Dinsdale, Ternick, Weinzierl [ ] Lund Dipoles revisited [J. C. Winter and F. Krauss, JHEP 0807, 040 (2008)] Similar approach (VINCIA), based on Antenna subtraction by Giele, Kosower, Skands (toy process) [ ] Dipole shower in Herwig++, Coherence/angular ordering clearified see below. [Simon Plätzer, SG, ] Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 33/45

53 Why all those dipoles? Momentum conservation in shower emissions. 2 emissions. No momentum conservation. Kinematic reshuffling needed afterwards. Difficult for matching with NLO. 2 3 emissions. Momentum conservation simple due to recoil against 3rd parton. Stefan Gieseke PSR 202 DESY Hamburg 29/5-/6/202 34/45

54 Coherent dipole shower What about angular ordering/soft coherence? Investigate parton showers with local recoils (that s what a CS parton shower is like). Angular ordering/soft coherence manifest in Sudakov anomalous dimension ( Γ q (p 2,Q2 ) = C F ln Q2 p 2 3 ), 2 ( Γ g (p 2,Q2 ) = C A ln Q2 p 2 ). 6 [A. Bassetto, M. Ciafaloni and G. Marchesini, Phys.

55 Coherent dipole shower What about angular ordering/soft coherence? Investigate parton showers with local recoils (that s what a CS parton shower is like).
