TL;DR
This paper introduces a comprehensive antenna shower model for hadron collisions in the Vincia framework, focusing on initial state radiation and demonstrating matrix-element corrections for Z boson production at the LHC.
Contribution
It develops a full antenna shower for hadron collisions with initial state radiation and incorporates matrix-element corrections up to second order in alpha_s.
Findings
Successful implementation of matrix-element corrections for Z boson production.
Initial results demonstrate the applicability of the shower with corrections.
The shower currently handles massless QCD partons and colorless resonances.
Abstract
We present a full-fledged antenna shower for hadron collisions in the Vincia framework and focus on initial state radiation. The current version of the shower is limited to massless QCD partons and colourless resonances. As a proof-of-concept for the applicability of tree-level matrix-element corrections a la GKS we study boson production at the LHC, corrected up to Born + , and show some first results with matrix-element corrections.
