Entanglement entropy, Monte Carlo event generators, and soft gluons DIScovery
read the original abstract
We study entropy production in Deep Inelastic Scattering using Monte Carlo simulations. We show that the dominant contribution to entropy is due to soft gluons. This contribution is usually neglected in standard Monte Carlo approaches, since it does not affect hadronic spectra. However, it is relevant for entropy and multiplicity distributions, as we demonstrate with explicit calculations. We further show that as one includes soft gluons, making the Monte Carlo parton distributions closer to inclusive PDFs, the resulting entropy starts to grow with decreasing x. This provides further evidence that the bulk of the measured entropy originates from initial-state effects.

Higher-order local constraints from reciprocal symmetry and entanglement entropy of charged-particle multiplicity distributions in $pp$ collisions
Reciprocal symmetry f_s(z)=f_s(1/z) implies local constraints on multiplicity distributions at n=<n> that hold to leading order in ATLAS data, plus a model-independent entanglement entropy expression S=ln<n>+1-½∫e^{-z...

Reciprocal symmetry and KNO scaling violation in proton-proton collisions
A z ↔ 1/z reciprocal symmetry is found in KNO scaling violations in pp collisions, imposing the constraint P'(⟨n⟩) = −P(⟨n⟩)/⟨n⟩ that enables entanglement entropy extraction from the well-measured multiplicity region.
