Apprentice for Event Generator Tuning

نویسندگان

چکیده

Apprentice is a tool developed for event generator tuning. It contains range of conceptual improvements and extensions over the tuning Professor. Its core functionality remains construction multivariate analytic surrogate model to computationally expensive Monte-Carlo predictions. The used numerical optimization in chi-square minimization likelihood evaluation. also introduces algorithms automate selection observable weights minimize effect mis-modeling generators. We illustrate our task MC-generator limit setting.

Tools for event generator tuning and validation

I describe the current status of MCnet tools for validating the performance of event generator simulations against data, and for tuning their phenomenological free parameters. For validation, the Rivet toolkit is now a mature and complete system, with a large library of prominent benchmark analyses. For tuning, the Professor system has recently completed its first tunes of Pythia 6, with substa...

Systematic event generator tuning for the LHC

In this article we describe Professor, a new program for tuning model parameters of Monte Carlo event generators to experimental data by parameterising the per-bin generator response to parameter variations and numerically optimising the parameterised behaviour. Simulated experimental analysis data is obtained using the Rivet analysis toolkit. This paper presents the Professor procedure and imp...

CEDAR: tools for event generator tuning

I describe the work of the CEDAR collaboration in developing tools for tuning and validating Monte Carlo event generator programs. The core CEDAR task is to interface the Durham HepData database of experimental measurements to event generator validation tools such as the UCL JetWeb system — this has necessitated the migration of HepData to a new relational database system and a Java-based inter...

Monte Carlo event generator validation and tuning for the LHC

I summarise the motivation for, and the status of, the tools developed by CEDAR/MCnet for validating and tuning Monte Carlo event generators for the LHC against data from previous colliders. I then present selected preliminary results from studies of event shapes and hadronisation observables from ee colliders, and of minimum bias and underlying event observables from the Tevatron, and comment ...

The Event Generator SHERPA

In this contribution the multi-purpose event generation framework SHERPA is presented and the development status of its physics modules is reviewed. In its present version, SHERPA is capable of simulating lepton-lepton, lepton-photon, photon-photon and fully hadronic collisions, such as proton-proton reactions. SHERPA [1] is an independent approach for a framework for event generation at high e...
