LUCIFER — a Monte Carlo for high-p⊥ photoproduction
Description
Title of program: LUCIFER VERSION 2.2 Catalogue Id: AAXH_v1_0 Nature of problem Low-p(transverse) interactions of high energy photons with nuclear targets are described by the vector meson dominance model (VDM) in which the photon appears as a virtual vector meson (rho0 dominantly) which interacts strongly with the nucleon. High-p(transverse) interactions, on the other hand, occur through the point-like interaction of the photon with a constituent quark in the nucleon. This latter process is particularly interesting as a clean probe of quark dynamics within QED and QCD.
