Modern parton showers are built using one of two models: dipole showers or angular ordered showers. Both have distinct strengths and weaknesses. Dipole showers correctly account for wide-angle, soft gluon emissions and track the leading flows in QCD colour charge but they are known to mishandle partonic recoil. Angular ordered showers keep better track of partonic recoil and correctly include large amounts of wide-angle, soft physics but azimuthal averaging means they are known to mishandle some correlations. In this paper, we derive both approaches from the same starting point; linking our understanding of the two showers. This insight allows us to construct a new dipole shower that has all the strengths of a standard dipole shower together with those of an angular ordered shower. We show that this new approach corrects the next-to-leading-log errors previously observed in parton showers and improves their sub-leading-colour accuracy.

Factorization of the triple-collinear $q \to qc\bar{c}$ splitting function at first order in opacity
At first order in opacity, the medium-modified q->q c cbar splitting function factorizes into products of q->q g and g->c cbar splitting functions in three strongly ordered collinear limits.

Resonance-aware parton-shower matching for off-shell top-antitop production with semi-leptonic decays at electron-positron colliders
A resonance-aware MC@NLO matching procedure preserves top-antitop line shapes when NLO QCD predictions for off-shell ttbar production at e+e− colliders are showered with Pythia8.

Sudakov evolution without unitarity
Sunshine removes Sudakov factors from parton-shower sampling by keeping every intermediate state, giving direct tree-level expansions and enabling tests of matrix-element corrections.

Timelike showers with jet recoils
A 'jet recoil' scheme assigning momentum-balance recoil to clusters of partons chosen by angular ordering brings kt-ordered dipole parton showers to next-to-leading-logarithmic accuracy, shown by fixed-order and resum...

Parton spin correlations and $\mathcal{CP}$ properties in Higgs boson decay at future lepton colliders
In H→gg at a 240 GeV e+e− collider, the four-point energy-energy correlator with energy weight n=4 gives the strongest sensitivity to gluon spin correlations and, assuming perfect splitting-mode identification in the ...
