A Program for Baryon Generation and Its Applications to Baryon Fragmentation in DIS
Patrik Eden (Department of Theoretical Physics, Lund University,, Sweden)
TL;DR
This paper introduces an improved 'popcorn' model for baryon production in quark and gluon jets, providing a manual for the MC implementation and applying it to baryon fragmentation in deep inelastic scattering, with comparisons to experimental data.
Contribution
It presents the Modified Popcorn Scenario (MOPS) model, an enhanced approach for simulating baryon production and fragmentation in high-energy physics.
Findings
Model predictions align with experimental data on baryon production in DIS.
The MOPS model improves upon previous baryon fragmentation models.
The paper provides a comprehensive manual for the MC implementation of MOPS.
Abstract
In an earlier paper, we discuss the ``popcorn'' model for baryon production in quark and gluon jets, and present an improved model (which we call Modified Popcorn Scenarium, MOPS). In this paper we give a manual to the MC program based on MOPS, and also discuss the application of the model to baryon fragmentation, i.e. fragmentation of strings originally contaning a diquark. Model predictions for baryon production in DIS are compared with data.
