The Geneva Monte Carlo Framework

ORAL

Abstract

The Geneva Monte Carlo framework is a next-generation event generator capable of combining higher-order resummation (NNLL) of large Sudakov logarithms with multiple next-to-leading-order (NLO) matrix-element corrections and parton showering (using Pythia 8) to give a complete description at the next higher perturbative accuracy in alpha\textunderscore s at both small and large jet resolution scales. Results for e$+$e- $+$ jets compared to LEP data and for Drell-Yan production are presented.
