PYTHIA 6.4 Physics and Manual
TL;DR: The Pythia program as mentioned in this paper can be used to generate high-energy-physics ''events'' (i.e. sets of outgoing particles produced in the interactions between two incoming particles).
Journal ArticleDOI
The anti-$k_t$ jet clustering algorithm
TL;DR: The anti-k-t algorithm as mentioned in this paper behaves like an idealised cone algorithm, in that jets with only soft fragmentation are conical, active and passive areas are equal, the area anomalous dimensions are zero, the non-global logarithms are those of a rigid boundary and the Milan factor is universal.

A Brief Introduction to PYTHIA 8.1
TL;DR: PYTHIA 8 represents a complete rewrite in C++, and does not yet in every respect replace the old code, but does contain some new physics aspects that should make it an attractive option especially for LHC physics studies.

TL;DR: Pythia 8.2 is the second main release after the complete rewrite from Fortran to C++, and now has reached such a maturity that it offers a complete replacement for most applications, notably for LHC physics studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
The EvtGen particle decay simulation package
TL;DR: The EvtGen package as discussed by the authors provides a framework for the implementation of physics processes relevant to decays of B mesons and other resonances, including time dependent CP asymmetries in neutral B meson decays, semileptonic form-factor models, and a full decay table for B decays.

Parton fragmentation and string dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, an iterative cascade-based model for string dynamics is described, which is based on a cascade-fly model using string dynamics, with tunneling in a constant force field.

The Lund Monte Carlo for Jet Fragmentation and e+ e- Physics. Jetset Version 6.3: An Update
TL;DR: This work designs and implements a parser replacement for the FORTRAN 77 programming language, and demonstrates the power of the JETSET programming language.

A multiple-interaction model for the event structure in hadron collisions
TL;DR: It is argued that hadronic events contain a varying number of semihard parton-parton interactions, with an average interaction rate given by perturbative QCD, and the variation between different events given by Poissonian statistics for each impact parameter separately.
