! main04.cmnd. ! This file contains commands to be read in for a Pythia8 run. ! Lines not beginning with a letter or digit are comments. ! 1) Settings that could be used in a main program, if desired. Main:numberOfEvents = 1000 ! number of events to generate Main:numberToList = 1 ! number of events to print Main:timesToShow = 20 ! show how far along run is Main:timesAllowErrors = 3 ! how many aborts before run stops Main:showChangedSettings = on ! print changed flags/modes/parameters Main:showAllSettings = off ! print all flags/modes/parameters ! 2) Beam parameter settings. Values below agree with default ones. Beams:idA = 2212 ! first beam, p = 2212, pbar = -2212 Beams:idB = 2212 ! second beam, p = 2212, pbar = -2212 Beams:eCM = 14000. ! CM energy of collision ! 3) Settings for the hard-process generation. ! Example 1: QCD production; must set pTmin. #HardQCD:all = on ! switch on all QCD jet + jet processes #PhaseSpace:pTHatMin = 20. ! minimal pT sacale in process ! Example 2: t-tbar production. Top:gg2ttbar = on ! g g -> t tbar Top:qqbar2ttbar = on ! q qbar -> t tbar ! Example 3: Z0 production; should set mMin. #WeakSingleBoson:ffbar2gmZ = on ! q qbar -> gamma*/Z0 #PhaseSpace:mHatMin = 50. ! Example 4: gauge boson pair production; set pTmin. Not yet complete. #WeakDoubleBoson:ffbar2ZW ! q qbar -> Z0 W+- #WeakDoubleBoson:ffbar2WW ! q qbar -> W+ W- ! 4) Settings for the event generation process in the Pythia8 library. #PartonLevel:MI = off ! no multiple interactions #PartonLevel:ISR = off ! no initial-state radiation #PartonLevel:FSR = off ! no final-state radiation #HadronLevel:Hadronize = off ! no hadronization #HadronLevel:Decay = off ! no decays SpaceShower:pT0Ref = 2.0 ! dampening of pT -> 0 divergence MultipleInteractions:pTmin = 3.0 ! lower pT cutoff for interactions
