Description
Parton shower simulations are typically formulated in the large-N
limit, neglecting color correlations suppressed by inverse powers of
N. We outline an algorithm to improve parton shower algorithms by
subleading-N color correlations. Preliminary numerical results from an
implementation building on recent extensions to the Herwig++ event
generator are presented.
