An eikonal model for multiparticle production in hadron - hadron interactions
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce an eikonal Monte Carlo model (running in conjunction with HERWIG) for simulating multiparticle production in hadron-hadron interactions. We compare our simulated data to the CDF Tevatron measurement of the underlying event activity in hard inelastic proton-antiproton scattering at √ s=1.8 TeV. By fixing the only free parameter in our model, the total hadron-hadron cross section , we find that our model describes the data better than either the HERWIG Underlying Event model or the Hard Multiparton model.

PHOTOPRODUCTION OFF NUCLEI AND POINT-LIKE PHOTON INTERACTIONS Part II: Particle Production
High energy multiparticle photoproduction off nuclear targets is studied. The photon is assumed to interact in direct scattering processes or as a resolved qq̄-state according to the Generalized Vector Dominance Model. In the description of resolved interactions multiple soft and hard processes in each qq̄-nucleon interaction are taken into consideration. The model, formulated within the framewor...
متن کاملSecondary Particles Produced by Hadron Therapy
Introduction Use of hadron therapy as an advanced radiotherapy technique is increasing. In this method, secondary particles are produced through primary beam interactions with the beam-transport system and the patient’s body. In this study, Monte Carlo simulations were employed to determine the dose of produced secondary particles, particularly neutrons during treatment. Materials and Methods I...
متن کاملHadronic photon-photon interactions at high energies.
Photon-photon collisions are investigated in the framework of the two-component Dual Parton Model. The model contains contributions from direct, resolved soft and resolved hard interactions. All free parameters of the model are determined in fits to hadronhadron and photon-hadron cross section data. The model is shown to agree well to hadron production data from hadron-hadron and photon-hadron ...
متن کاملMultiparticle Dynamics 2004
In high energy collisions of leptons, hadrons and nuclei we observe the production of many particles, mainly hadrons. The ultimate goal in multiparticle production studies is the explanation of the hadronic phenomena within QCD, the basic theory of the strong interactions, along with the other interactions of the standard model and possibly beyond. A basic problem in the QCD study of multiparti...

Introduction: Radiotherapy with heavy charged particles such as protons and carbon ions (hadron therapy) has been recognized as an advanced technique for the treatment of various cancers. For some indications such as pediatric and radio-resistant tumors, it is considered the preferred method. However, despite its remarkable benefits, development of hadron therapy centers in the...
