A new set of CMS tunes for novel colour reconnection models in PYTHIA8 based on underlying-event data
Abstract: New sets of parameter tunes for two of the colour reconnection models implemented in the PYTHIA8 event generator, QCD-inspired and gluon move, are obtained based on the default CMS PYTHIA8 underlying-event tune, CP5. Measurements sensitive to underlying-event performed at $\sqrt{s}=$ 1.96, 7, and 13 TeV are used to constrain the parameters of the colour reconnection models and the multiple parton interactions simultaneously. The new colour reconnection tunes are compared to various measurements at a centre-of-mass energy of 1.96, 7, 8, and 13 TeV including measurements of underlying event, strange particle multiplicities, jet substructure observables, hadron ratios, jet shapes and colour flow in top quark pair events, and top quark mass. The new colour reconnection tunes can be used to estimate systematic uncertainties related to colour reconnection modelling.

Summary
New sets of parameters for two of the colour reconnection (CR) models, QCD-inspired and gluon-move, implemented in the PYTHIAviii event generator are obtained, based on the default CMS CP5 PYTHIAviii tune. Measurements sensitive to underlying-event (UE) contributions performed 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. Different measurements at a centre-of-mass energy of 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 distributions significantly better describe the data than the CR models with their default parameters before tuning. The predictions of the new tunes are able to achieve a very good level of agreement against many underlying-event observables including UE data measured at forward pseudorapidities. However, it should be noted that the models after tuning perform no better than the CP5 tune for the observables presented in this study. The new CR tunes are also tested against measurements of strange particle multiplicities for $\Lambda$ baryons and $K_s^0$ mesons. It is shown that new CR models alone do not improve the description of the strange particle production versus rapidity distribution for $\Lambda$ baryons. It is observed that all CP5 tunes, irrespective of the CR model, describe particle production for $K_S^0$ versus rapidity very well. The predictions of the new tunes to jet shapes and colour flow measurements done with top quark pair events are also compared to data. None of the tunes describe the jet shapes distributions considered in this note well, and all tunes have similar predictions. Some differences are also observed with respect to the colour flow data which is particularly sensitive to the ERD 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 uncertainty on the top quark mass measurement due to CR effects is also presented which shows that CR will continue to be one of the dominating uncertainty sources in the top quark mass measurements.
