| description | In this report we investigate the models employed by PYTHIA and PHOJET Monte Carlo event generators used to describe soft interactions in hadron-hadron collisions. The prime aim of this study is to predict minimum bias and underlying event levels of particle production and event activity for the LHC as accurately as these models allow us, thus providing indispensable information for simulations. Focusing on a wide range of measurements dominated by soft interactions in proton-proton and proton-anti-proton collisions, one of the aims of this study is to check the consistency of these models when compared to data and evaluate how efficient their descriptions of low-pT processes are. Based on comparisons to a wide range of minimum bias and underlying event data we present a tuning for PYTHIA6.214 and compare it to other PYTHIA tunings. |
