Abstract
While the LHCb detector was specifically designed for measuring heavy-flavor physics, it has also proven itself as a forward general purpose detector with flexible data acquisition, excellent lifetime resolution and charged particle identification. This makes LHCb an ideal laboratory for exploring phenomena related to quantum chromodynamics (QCD), particularly with heavy-flavor content. This review explores some of the novel QCD measurements from LHCb, with an emphasis placed on comparisons to predictions from the Pythia 8 Monte Carlo event generator.
