Sherpa is a general-purpose Monte Carlo event generator for the simulation of particle collisions in high-energy collider experiments. We summarise essential features and improvements of the Sherpa 2.2 release series, which is heavily used for event generation in the analysis and interpretation of LHC Run 1 and Run 2 data. We highlight a decade of developments towards ever higher precision in the simulation of particle-collision events.

- A measurement of the Higgs boson mass in the diphoton decay channel (2020, methodology): “The diphoton background is modelled with the SHERPA v.2.2.1 [15] generator, which includes the Born processes with up to 3 additional jets at leading order (LO) accuracy, as well as the LO box processes.”
