abstract

A parton-shower model for hadronic collisions based on the emission properties of QCD dipoles is proposed. This proposal therefore extends the well-known radiation pattern of pure final-state colour dipoles to QCD initial-state radiation, both of which are treated perturbatively. Corresponding dipole splitting functions are derived and the kinematics of all dipole splittings is discussed. Application to hadron production in electron-positron annihilation, to Drell-Yan lepton-pair and QCD jet production yields encouraging results.

An NLO-Matched Initial and Final State Parton Shower on a GPU

hep-ph · 2025-11-24 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0 · 2 refs

GAPS v2 is a GPU-accelerated parton shower for initial and final state emissions with NLO matching that achieves speed and energy performance on par with a 96-core CPU cluster for NLO Z production at the LHC.
