pythia8 underlying event tune for RHIC energies
pythia8 underlying event tune for RHIC energies
We report an underlying event tune for the pythia8 Monte Carlo event generator that is applicable for hadron collisions primarily at $\sqrt{s}$ ranges available at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC). We compare our new pythia8 tuned predictions to midrapidity inclusive ${\ensuremath{\pi}}^{\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$ spectra, jet substructure, Drell-Yan production, and underlying event measurements …
