CMS PYTHIA 8 colour reconnection tunes based on underlying-event data
Eur. Phys. J. C 83 (2023) 587
Abstract: New sets of parameter tunes for two of the colour reconnection models, quantum chromodynamics-inspired and gluon-move, implemented in the PYTHIA 8 event generator, are obtained based on the default CMS PYTHIA 8 underlying-event tune, CP5. Measurements sensitive to the underlying event performed by the CMS experiment at centre-of-mass energies $ \sqrt{s}= $ 7 and 13 TeV, and by the CDF experiment at 1.96 TeV are used to constrain the parameters of colour reconnection models and multiple-parton interactions simultaneously. The new colour reconnection tunes are compared with various measurements at 1.96, 7, 8, and 13 TeV including measurements of the underlying-event, strange-particle multiplicities, jet substructure observables, jet shapes, and colour flow in top quark pair ( $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $) events. The new tunes are also used to estimate the uncertainty related to colour reconnection modelling in the top quark mass measurement using the decay products of $ \mathrm{t} \overline{\mathrm{t}} $ events in the semileptonic channel at 13 TeV.

The charged-particle (left) and $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\text{sum}} $ densities (right) in the transMIN (upper) and transMAX (lower) regions as functions of the $ p_{\mathrm{T}} $ of the leading charged particle, $ p_{\mathrm{T}}^{\text{max}} $, measured by the CMS experiment at $ \sqrt{s}= $ 13 TeV [17]. The predictions of the tunes CP5, CP5-``QCD-inspired'', and CP5-``gluon-move'' using their default parameter settings in Refs. [14,9], are compared with data. The coloured band and error bars on the data points represent the total experimental uncertainty in the data where the model uncertainty is also included. The comparisons show that the models do not describe the data and need to be retuned.

Summary
New sets of parameters for two of the colour reconnection (CR) models implemented in the PYTHIA 8 event generator, QCD-inspired and gluon-move, are obtained, based on the default CMS PYTHIA 8 tune CP5. Measurements sensitive to underlying-event (UE) contributions performed at hadron-colliders at $ \sqrt{s}= $ 1.96, 7, and 13 TeV are used to constrain the parameters for the CR and for the multiple-parton interactions simultaneously. Various measurements at 1.96, 7, 8, and 13 TeV are used to evaluate the performance of the new tunes. The central values predicted by the new CR tunes for the UE and minimum-bias events describe the data significantly better than the CR models with their default parameters before tuning. The predictions of the new tunes achieve a reasonable agreement in many UE observables, including the ones measured at forward pseudorapidities. However, the models after tuning do not generally perform better than the CP5 tune for the observables presented in this study. Although the new CR tunes presented in this work are not intended to improve the description of the measurements of strange particle multiplicities for $ \Lambda $ baryons and $ \mathrm{K^0_S} $ mesons, we test the new tunes against them. We find that the new CR models, when tuned using only measurements that are sensitive to the UE, do not provide a better description of the distribution of strange particle production as a function of rapidity for $ \Lambda $ baryons. However, we observe that all CP5 tunes, irrespective of the CR model, describe particle production for $ \mathrm{K^0_S} $ as a function of rapidity well. Including these observables in the fits, along with the latest measurements of baryon/meson production, could be beneficial for future tune derivations. The predictions of the new tunes for jet shapes and colour flow measurements done with top quark pair events are also compared with data. All tunes give similar predictions, but none of the tunes describe the jet shape distributions well. Some differences are also observed with respect to the colour flow data, which is particularly sensitive to the early resonance decay option in the CR models. The differences between the predictions using the different tunes observed here indicate that the inclusion of observables, such as the jet pull angle and other jet substructure observables, could be beneficial in tuning studies. A study of the uncertainty in the top quark mass measurement due to CR effects is also presented. The new CR tunes will play a role in the evaluation of systematic uncertainties associated with the modelling of colour reconnection.
