Due to confinement, much of the richness as well as the challenge of quantum chromodynamics lies in relating the partonic degrees of freedom in the fundamental field theory to the hadronic degrees of freedom that we can observe. Within the context of high-energy QCD, the ability to factorize short-distance, perturbatively calculable partonic scattering cross sections from long-distance...
In this talk, I will give an overview of General-Purpose Event Generators for High-Energy physics, and attempt to highlight their HL-LHC and EIC-relevant aspects, such as their hard physics modelling, QCD and electroweak resummation properties (and recent developments), as well as non-perturbative modelling relevant for TMD physics.
The QCD evolution of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distribution functions has recently been formulated in a parton branching (PB) formalism. In this approach, soft-gluon coherence effects are taken into account by introducing the soft-gluon resolution scale and exploiting the relation between transverse-momentum recoils and branching scales. In this talk we investigate the implications...
