Abstract

An overview of minimum bias and underlying event studies at the LHC with the ATLAS and CMS detectors is presented. Current uncertainties in the modeling of soft pp inelastic interactions at the LHC energy scale are discussed. Triggers used to select inelastic interactions at ATLAS and CMS are described and compared. A summary of some of the ongoing minimum bias and underlying event analyses by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations is given.
