Title of program: PYTHIA 3.4 Catalogue Id: ACCB_v2_0 [ACDN] Nature of problem Hadron-hadron collisions with a large momentum transfer is generally understood as a hard scattering between essentially free, pointlike partons (quarks and gluons) within the colliding hadrons. This underlying reaction can be described by QCD, the candidate theory of strong interactions. However, the hadronization, i.e. the transformation from the scattered partons to the observable hadrons, is not well understood but must nevertheless be taken into account to compare theory with experimental r ...
