A new release of the Monte Carlo event generator Herwig (version 7.2) is now available. This version introduces a number of improvements over the major version 7.0, notably: multi-jet merging with the dipole shower at LO and NLO QCD; spin correlations in both the dipole and angular-ordered parton showers; an improved choice of evolution variable in the angular-ordered parton shower; improvements to mass effects and top decays in the dipole shower, improvements to the simulation of multiple-parton interactions, including diffractive processes; a new model for baryonic colour reconnection; improvements to strangeness production; as well as a new tune of the hadronisation parameters and support for generic Lorentz structures in BSM models. This article illustrates new features of versions 7.1 and 7.2.

- The Forward Physics Facility: Sites, experiments, and physics potential (2021, background): “One example is Herwig, where an enforced parton-shower-like backwards evolution is used to reconstruct, e.g., a uark entering an MPI as coming from a gluon that in its turn is emitted from the color line of the hardest MPI.”
