A matching of matrix elements and parton showers

preprint1997arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose a simple scheme to start a parton-shower evolution description from a given jet configuration in e+e−e^+ e^- annihilation events. This allows a convenient combination of the full angular information content of matrix elements with the detailed sub-jet structure of parton showers, and should give a realistic overall description of event properties. Explicit studies with this hybrid approach are presented for the four-jet case, as a simple testing ground of the ideas.
