Presentation

In recent times, the Pythia event generator has been extended to feature simulations of generic hadron-nucleon interactions. In this talk, I present a further extension to hadron-ion interactions, which are of particular relevance for air showers where hadronic cascades interact with nuclei in the air.

The model has been validated against NA61/SHINE data. The model also has applications to...

2. Air shower predictions of QGSJET-III and model uncertainties for Xmax

Sergey Ostapchenko (Hamburg University, II Institute for Theoretical Physics)

Presentation

I shall discuss new theoretical approaches implemented in the QGSJET-III Monte Carlo generator and present selected model results regarding secondary hadron production in hadron-proton and hadron-nucleus collisions. The predictions of the model for basic characteristics of proton-induced extensive air showers (EAS) will be compared to the ones of QGSJET-II and of other cosmic ray interaction...

19. Introduction and overview of the UrQMD model for p+A and A+A reactions

Prof. Marcus Bleicher (Uni Frankfurt)

Presentation

This talk provides an introduction into the Ultra-relativistic Quantum Molecular Dynamics model (UrQMD). UrQMD is a well established transport approach to simulate hadron-hadron, hadron+nucleus and nucleus+nucleus reactions at beam energies starting from 1 GeV to center-of-mass energies of a few hundred GeV. UrQMD has been well tested against a wide range of accelerator data for various...
