We discuss and illustrate the properties of several parton-shower algorithms available in Pythia and Vincia, in the context of Higgs production via vector boson fusion (VBF). In particular, the distinctive colour topology of VBF processes allows to define observables sensitive to the coherent radiation pattern of additional jets. We study a set of such observables, using the Vincia sector-antenna shower as our main reference, and contrast it to Pythia's transverse-momentum-ordered DGLAP shower as well as Pythia's dipole-improved shower. We then investigate the robustness of these predictions as successive levels of higher-order perturbative matrix elements are incorporated, including next-to-leading-order matched and tree-level merged calculations, using Powheg Box and Sherpa respectively to generate the hard events.

  1. Measurement of differential $t$-channel single top (anti)quark production cross-sections at 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-01 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    First separate differential tq and tbarq t-channel single-top cross-sections at 13 TeV, using the full ATLAS Run 2 sample, agree with NLO/NNLO QCD and set −0.12 < C_Qq^{3,1}/Λ² < 0.12 TeV⁻² at 95% CL.

  2. Measurements of differential cross-sections of $WbWb$ production in the dilepton channel in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV using the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2025-06 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Measurements of WbWb differential cross sections in the dilepton channel at 13 TeV with 140 fb^-1 of ATLAS data provide new constraints on ttbar and tW interference modeling.

  3. Precision tools for the simulation of double-Higgs production via vector-boson fusion

    hep-ph 2025-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    New and extended Monte Carlo tools for vector-boson-fusion double-Higgs production now support anomalous Higgs couplings, and show that NLO-plus-shower predictions approximate NNLO results while non-factorizable QCD c...

  4. Test of lepton flavour universality in $W$-boson decays into electrons and $\tau$-leptons using $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2024-12 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    ATLAS measures R_tau/e = 0.975 +/- 0.012 (stat) +/- 0.020 (syst) for W boson decays to tau versus electron, consistent with lepton flavour universality.

  5. Study of $t\bar{t}H$ and $tH$ production in the $H\to\tau\tau$ channel in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV and 13.6 TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Simultaneous measurement of ttH (mu=1.51) and tH (mu=-0.4) in fully hadronic H→tau tau final states at 13/13.6 TeV, consistent with the Standard Model.

  6. Measurement of the $b$-jet identification efficiency in dileptonic $t\bar{t}$ events using proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=13.6$ TeV collected with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2026-07 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    The GN2 b-jet tagger is calibrated in 56 fb⁻¹ of 13.6 TeV pp data using dileptonic tt̄ events, yielding data-to-simulation scale factors of 0.9–1.3 with ~1% uncertainty in the best bins.

  7. Measurement of the Higgs boson production in association with top quarks in multilepton final states in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

    hep-ex 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    ATLAS measures the ttH cross-section at 0.63+0.20−0.19 of the Standard Model prediction (3.3σ observed, 5.3σ expected) and excludes top-Higgs CP-mixing angles |α|>62° at 68% confidence.
