In this review, we present a review on an alternative NLO subtraction scheme, based on the splitting kernels of an improved parton shower that promises to facilitate the inclusion of higher-order corrections into Monte Carlo event generators. We give expressions for the scheme for massless emitters, and point to work on the extension for massive cases. As an example, we show results for the C parameter of the process e+e-→3 jets at NLO which have recently been published as a verification of this scheme. We equally provide analytic expressions for integrated counterterms that have not been presented in previous work, and comment on the possibility of analytic approximations for the remaining numerical integrals.

The Monte Carlo event generator BabaYaga has been developed for high precision simulation of QED processes (e+e−→ e+ e− , e+e−→ µ+µ− and e+e−→ γγ) at flavour factories, chiefly for luminometry purposes, with an estimated theoretical accuracy at the 0.1% level or better. QED radiative corrections are included by means of a Parton Shower in QED matched with exact next-to-leading order corrections to reach the required accuracy. The latter is assessed by means of consistent comparisons to independent calculations and an estimate of the size of missing higher-order corrections. The main theoretical framework is overviewed and the status of the generator is summarized.

AbstractThe Cascade3 Monte Carlo event generator based on Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) parton densities is described. Hard processes which are generated in collinear factorization with LO multileg or NLO parton level generators are extended by adding transverse momenta to the initial partons according to TMD densities and applying dedicated TMD parton showers and hadronization. Processes with off-shell kinematics within $$k_{{t}}$$ k t -factorization, either internally implemented or from external packages via LHE files, can be processed for parton showering and hadronization. The initial state parton shower is tied to the TMD parton distribution, with all parameters fixed by the TMD distribution.

Algorithms for parton shower models are examined for singlet partons in deep inelastic scattering. We compare two different types of models: (i) based on evolution of particle number distributions as conventionally used in Monte–Carlo event generators, (ii) based on evolution of momentum distributions which has not been studied in the practical event generators. Features of these two models are qualitatively studied in order to understand the properties of these models.
