Description
The simulation of high energy particle reactions is central to the design and interpretation of current and future particle collider experiments. In this talk I will present the state of the art of such event generator simulations, and the significant challenges posed by future experiments and analysis techniques. A novel role is played by the quest for a detailed understanding of final states at the level of individual hadronic final state particles, and many techniques which are now entering the theoretical basis and computational paradigms of these simulations share similarities with many-body physics and open quantum systems.
