Quarkonium parton shower in Herwig 7

摘要

We present the implementation of a fully automated quarkonium parton shower in Herwig 7, based on non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorisation with spin-colour projections. The framework systematically incorporates colour-singlet and colour-octet production mechanisms, gluon fragmentation, and diquark production processes. Perturbative short-distance coefficients are combined with non-perturbative NRQCD matrix elements to simulate heavy-quark bound state formation. Splitting functions for S-, P- and D-wave states are explicitly derived and integrated into the angular-ordered shower evolution. The implementation preserves spin correlations and polarisation effects while accurately accounting for feed-down contributions. Results demonstrate improved agreement with the existing LHC data. This quarkonium parton shower will become publicly available with the release of Herwig-7.4.0.
