Title: Photon splitting corrections to soft-photon resummation

Abstract: 

 In this talk I present an algorithm to add photon-splitting corrections to the Yennie-Frautschi-Suura-style soft-photon resummation available in the Sherpa Monte-Carlo event generator. Then, I introduce different lepton dressing strategies which incorporate further leptons and hadrons in addition to the customary photons, and discuss their sensitivity to dressing parameters such as the cone size. Results are presented for the academic case of on-shell Z decay as well as Drell-Yan lepton production at a proton-proton collider.
