TL;DR
This paper compares three Monte Carlo models—ARIADNE, HERWIG, and LEPTO—to experimental deep-inelastic scattering data from HERA to evaluate their accuracy and predictive power.
Contribution
It provides a systematic comparison of multiple Monte Carlo event generators against HERA data, highlighting their relative performance in modeling deep-inelastic scattering.
Findings
ARIADNE, HERWIG, and LEPTO show varying degrees of agreement with HERA data
The study identifies strengths and limitations of each generator in reproducing experimental results
Results inform future improvements in Monte Carlo modeling of deep-inelastic scattering
Abstract
The Monte Carlo models ARIADNE, HERWIG and LEPTO are compared to deep-inelastic scattering data measured at the ep-collider HERA.
