Phenomenology of Jet Production in Forward Direction at High Energy Hadron Colliders

TL;DR

This paper compares different Monte Carlo simulation approaches for forward jet production at the LHC, focusing on high energy versus collinear factorization methods to understand their predictions.

Contribution

It provides a comparative analysis of CASCADE and PYTHIA simulations for forward jet observables at high energies.

Findings

CASCADE and PYTHIA yield different predictions for forward jet observables.

High energy factorization captures certain features not seen in collinear approaches.

Results inform the choice of models for forward jet phenomenology at colliders.

Abstract

We calculate observables relevant for forward jets at LHC. The simulations are performed using Monte Carlo event generators. In particular we compare results from CASCADE based on high energy factorization and PYTHIA which is based on collinear factorization.
