---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Project: B9 Title: MC4TMD - determiantion of Transverse Momentum Dependent parton densities with Monte Carlo event generators DESY group: CMS Type: Online project Duration: 19th july - 10th sep 2021 Description: We will study Monte Carlo event generators and calculate transverse momentum distributions for the interacting partons after initial and final state parton shower, and provide them in form of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton distribtions. We will use Pythia and Herwig (and perhpas Sherpa) MC event generators. Special Qualifications expected: - Learn about the principles of MC event generators and the physics behind. - Learn how to extract information from MC event generators - Basisc knowledge in computing, (Linux, C++) is of advantage, but we will give also an introduction so that everybody can contribute.
