TLDR
In this article, the transverse momentum spectra for identified charged pions, protons and anti-protons from p + p and d + Au collisions at s NN = 200 GeV were measured around midrapidity ( | y | 0.5 ) over the range of 0.3 p T 10 GeV / c with particle identification from the ionization energy loss and its relativistic rise in the time projection chamber and time-of-flight in STAR.

Tuning Monte Carlo Generators: The Perugia Tunes

Peter Skands
- 20 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the p{sub perpendicular}-ordered shower and underlying event model in Pythia 6.4 is updated and supersede the older "S0" family, and a set of 8 related "Perugia variations" that attempt to systematically explore soft, hard, parton density, and color structure variations in the theoretical parameters.

EPS09: A New Generation of NLO and LO Nuclear Parton Distribution Functions

TL;DR: In this paper, a next-to-leading order (NLO) analysis of nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) and their uncertainties was carried out for the first time with three different types of experimental input, including Drell-Yan dilepton production in p+A collisions and inclusive pion production in d+Au and p+p collisions at RHIC.

Systematic measurements of identified particle spectra in pp, d+Au, and Au+Au collisions at the star detector.

B. I. Abelev, +370 more
- 03 Mar 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the charged-particle spectra at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) time projection chamber and reported the average transverse momenta, total particle production, particle yield ratios, strangeness, and baryon production rates as a function of collision system and centrality.

Rivet user manual

TL;DR: This is the manual and user guide for the Rivet system for the validation and tuning of Monte Carlo event generators, and describes the usage of the rivet program and the AGILe generator interface library.

Strange particle production in p+p collisions at s=200 GeV

B. I. Abelev, +376 more
- 04 Jun 2007 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the midrapidity of the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) spectra and showed that the scaling of hadron production in p+p collisions seems to break down at higher mT and that there is a difference in the shape of the mT spectrum between baryons and mesons.

HERWIG 6: an event generator for hadron emission reactions with interfering gluons (including supersymmetric processes)

TL;DR: HERWIG as mentioned in this paper is a general-purpose Monte Carlo event generator, which includes the simulation of hard lepton-lepton, leptonhadron and hadron-hadron scattering and soft hadronhadron collisions in one package.

The PHOBOS Perspective on Discoveries at RHIC

TL;DR: In the most central Au+Au collisions at the highest beam energy, evidence is found for the formation of a very high energy density system whose description in terms of simple hadronic degrees of freedom is inappropriate as discussed by the authors.
