abstract = {Understanding the intrinsic transverse momentum
(intrinsic-$k_T$) of partons within colliding hadrons,
typically modeled with a Gaussian distribution characterized
by a specific width (the intrinsic-$k_T$ width), has been an
extremely challenging issue. This difficulty arises because
event generators like Pythia require an intrinsic-$k_T$
width that unexpectedly varies with collision energy,
reaching unphysical values at high energies. This paper
investigates the underlying physics behind this energy
dependence in Pythia, revealing that it arises from an
interplay between two non-perturbative processes: the
internal transverse motion of partons and non-perturbative
soft gluon emissions. These contributions are most
constrained in the production of Drell-Yan pairs with very
low transverse momentum, where soft gluon effects become
increasingly prominent with rising collision energy-contrary
to initial expectations. Through a detailed analysis of the
non-perturbative Sudakov form factor and its influence on
intrinsic-$k_T$ width, we clarify the observed energy
scaling behavior in Pythia, providing insight into a
longstanding issue in parton shower modeling.},
