! File: main04.cmnd ! This file contains commands to be read in for a Pythia8 run. ! Lines not beginning with a letter or digit are comments. ! Names are case-insensitive - but spellings-sensitive! ! The changes here are illustrative, not always physics-motivated. ! 1) Settings used in the main program. Main:numberOfEvents = 1000 ! number of events to generate Main:timesAllowErrors = 10 ! how many aborts before run stops ! 2) Settings related to output in init(), next() and stat(). Init:showChangedSettings = on ! list changed settings Init:showChangedParticleData = off ! list changed particle data Next:numberCount = 500 ! print message every n events Next:numberShowInfo = 3 ! print event information n times Next:numberShowProcess = 0 ! print process record n times Next:numberShowEvent = 0 ! print event record n times ! 3) Beam parameter settings. Values below agree with default ones. Beams:idA = 2212 ! first beam, p = 2212, pbar = -2212 Beams:idB = 2212 ! second beam, p = 2212, pbar = -2212 Beams:eCM = 14000. ! CM energy of collision ! 4) Settings for the hard-process generation. SoftQCD:all = on ! Allow total sigma = elastic/SD/DD/ND ! Optionally only study one or a few processes at a time. #SoftQCD:elastic = on ! Elastic #SoftQCD:singleDiffractive = on ! Single diffractive #SoftQCD:doubleDiffractive = on ! Double diffractive #SoftQCD:centralDiffractive = on ! Central diffractive #SoftQCD:minbias = on ! Nondiffractive inelastic ! 5) Optionally switch on hand-set cross section and Coulomb term. ! Note: these values are illustrative only, not to be taken seriously. #SigmaTotal:setOwn = on ! set your own total/elastic/diffr. sigma #SigmaTotal:sigmaTot = 106. ! total cross section (excluding Coulomb) #SigmaTotal:sigmaXX = 5. ! reduce double diffractive cross section #SigmaElastic:setOwn = on ! suboption for Coulomb term in elastic #SigmaElastic:tAbsMin = 4e-5 ! divergence requires lower cutoff ! 6) Optionally select diffractive model. Diffraction:PomFlux = 5 ! the MBR model for diffraction ! 7) Multiparton interactions and impact parameter picture. ! Note: these values are illustrative only, not to be taken seriously. MultipartonInteractions:pT0Ref = 2. MultipartonInteractions:ecmRef = 1960. MultipartonInteractions:ecmPow = 0.16 MultipartonInteractions:pTmin = 0.2 MultipartonInteractions:bProfile = 2 #MultipartonInteractions:coreRadius = 0.4 #MultipartonInteractions:coreFraction = 0.5 MultipartonInteractions:expPow = 1. ! 8) Other settings. Can be expanded as desired. ! Note: may overwrite some of the values above, so watch out. #Tune:pp = 6 ! use Tune 4Cx
