Average Event Properties from LHC to FCC-hh
read the original abstract
In the context of design studies for future $pp$ colliders, we present a set of predictions for average soft-QCD event properties for $pp$ collisions at $E_\mathrm{CM} = 14$, $27$, and $100$ TeV. The current default Monash 2013 tune of the PYTHIA 8.2 event generator is used as the baseline for the extrapolations, with uncertainties evaluated via variations of cross-section parametrisations, PDFs, MPI energy-scaling parameters, and colour-reconnection modelling, subject to current LHC constraints. The observables included in the study are total and inelastic cross sections, inelastic average energy and track densities per unit pseudorapidity (inside $|\eta|\le 6$), average track $p_\perp$, and jet cross sections for 50- and 100-GeV anti-$k_T$ jets with $\Delta R=0.4$, using aMC@NLO in conjunction with PYTHIA 8 for the latter.
