Herwig Monte Carlo Event Generator Herwig is a general-purpose event generator for high energy lepton-lepton, lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron collisions. Special emphasis is put on the accurate simulation of QCD radiation. The event in Herwig is simulated including these steps: Elementary hard process, Initial and final state parton showers, Decay of heavy objects, Multiple interactions (hard and soft), Hadronization and Hadron decays.

Herwig 7 Recently released: Herwig++ 3.0 Herwig 7.0 No distinction anymore between HERWIG and Herwig++; we refer to it as Herwig from now on. Most new features have to do with NLO calculations of hard processes with matching to angular-ordered and dipole shower modules. The focus of this talk: review of semi-hard and soft multiple parton interactions, recent development in diffraction and colour structure of soft scatters. Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

Multiple Parton Interactions (MPI) - motivation Inclusive jet cross section above transverse momentum p T σh inc (s, pt min ) = dx dx 2 dˆt Θ ( p T pt min ) + δ kl i,j,k,l ( f i h (x, µ 2 )f i h2 (x 2, µ 2 ) dσ ij kl ˆ ) (x x 2 s, t) dˆt Cross section increases with s. At moderate values of s, exceeds total cross section. A way to resolve this contradiction is MPI. [M. Bähr s talk at MPI@LHC 08.] Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

MPI - definitions and applications Several scatterings between partons in the same hadron collision. Important for understanding min-bias processes and the underlying event. Underlying event - all activity in a hadronic collision not related to the hard process, e.g. initial-state radiation, additional scatters in the collision, etc. Jet measurements - sensitive to the underlying event; jet algorithms gather all particles in the vicinity of the leading initial hard parton. Min-bias - events selected with least trigger bias possible; constitute the majority of the events in hadronic collisions. Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

MPI in Herwig Multiple scattering in a pp collision: Mean pairs of interactions at a given impact parameter b: n(b, s) = L partons ˆσ H, b L partons - parton luminosity; ˆσ H - partonic hard scattering cross section for p T > p min T. [J.M. Butterworth et al., Z.Phys. C72 (996) 637-646]. Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

MPI in Herwig (cont d) Assumption: dl partons = A(b)n h (x )n h2 (x 2 )dx dx 2 Profile function A(b) was factored out. We have: d 2 ba(b) =. n hi (x i ) - parton densities of hadrons (parton flavor is omitted); After performing the convolution: σh inc n(s, b) = A(b)σ inc H (s), (s) - inclusive scattering cross section. Assumption: scatters are uncorrelated; probability of having m scatters: P m (A(b)σ inc ) = ( n(b, s) )m m! exp ( n(s, b) ) Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

Multi-reggeon interactions - AGK rules Eikonal model n pomeron amplitude A (n) (s, b) = ( χ(s, b)) n, with χ(s, b) = 2iA () (s, b) 2i n! Using AGK rules, the k cut pomeron cross section is σ k (s) = d 2 b (2χ)k k! exp ( 2χ) Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

MPI - eikonal model Jet production cross section due to exactly k uncorrelated hard interactions σ k (s) = d 2 b P k (A(b)σ inc ) = d 2 b ( ) Aσ inc k H k! exp ( AσH inc ) Similar to the eikonal model if χ H (s, b) = 2A(b, µ)σinc H (s, pmin T ). We have introduced the parameter µ explicitly which is tuned in Herwig. Prob. of having n scatters, given there is one: d P n (σ inc 2 bp n (A(b)σ inc ) ) = d 2 b k= P k(a(b)σ inc ) = σn(σinc ) σ inel(σ inc ) This expression is the basis of underlying event calculations. Describes well the data ([M. Bähr, S. Gieseke, and M. H. Seymour JHEP 07 (2008), 076)]). Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

Diffractive events in Herwig We implement soft diffraction in Herwig by modelling it with the following matrix element A A B B q A B q Quark (q) and diquark (qq) form a cluster with diffractive mass, stretched along the dissociated proton. Frashër Loshaj Multiparton interactions in Herwig 6/5/205

Summary and outlook We reviewed the hard and soft MPI models in Herwig. Good agreement with data. Challenge: the so-called bump problem: the soft interaction model in Herwig produces too many events with large rapidity gaps. To address the problem we: modified the soft interaction model and implemented soft diffraction. Preliminary results show qualitative improvement, but more work is needed. Proper tuning has to be done and other observables should be checked as well. Diffraction and soft interaction model have to be sampled properly.
