Description

In person in small seminar room.

Abstract: Parton Shower Monte Carlo programs are crucial tools for precise event
simulations for Collider Experiments. In recent years, their logarithmic
accuracy has become a topic of interest. In this talk, I will give a
short introduction of Parton Showers and Resummation, followed by an
in-depth discussion of the Alaric algorithm.
