A new approach to color-coherent parton evolution
read the original abstract
We present a simple parton-shower model that replaces the explicit angular ordering of the coherent branching formalism with a differentially accurate simulation of soft-gluon radiation by means of a non-trivial dependence on azimuthal angles. We introduce a global kinematics mapping and provide an analytic proof that it satisfies the criteria for next-to leading logarithmic accuracy. In the new algorithm, initial and final state evolution are treated on the same footing. We provide an implementation for final-state evolution in the numerical code Alaric and present a first comparison to experimental data.

Resonance- and Width-aware Parton Shower Evolution and NLO Matching
A resonance- and width-aware parton shower with NLO matching is developed for e+e- to W+W- bbbar, extending beyond standard Breit-Wigner approximations, with a public SHERPA-based simulator.
