Soft interactions in Herwig

Speakers

Abstract content

We discuss soft interactions as part of the Multiple Partonic Interaction model in the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig. The model for soft interactions has been updated and complemented with a model for diffractive final states. We describe the model and present simulation results in comparison to data from minimum bias interactions at the LHC.
