Hadronic interaction models are a core ingredient of simulations of extensive air showers and pose the major source of uncertainties of predictions of air shower observables. Recently, Pythia 8, a hadronic interaction model popular in accelerator-based high-energy physics, became usable in air shower simulations as well. We have integrated Pythia 8 with its new capabilities into the air shower simulation framework CORSIKA 8. First results show significantly shallower shower development, which we attribute to higher cross-section predictions by the new simplified nuclear model of Pythia.

Hadron-ion collisions in Pythia and the vector-meson dominance model for photoproduction
Helenius, Ilkka; Utheim, Marius (Springer Nature, 2024)We present an extension to the Pythia Monte Carlo event generator that enables simulations of collisions between a generic hadron beam on a nuclear target with energy variation in event-by-event basis. This builds upon ... -
Semileptonic decays of heavy-flavour hadrons
Tolvanen, Alex (2023)Raskaat hadronit, eli hadronit jotka sisältävät vähintään yhden raskaan kvarkin, ovat kiinnostavia, koska niiden massat ovat tarpeeksi suuria jotta niiden tuottovaikutusalat voi laskea jopa pienillä poikittaisliikemäärillä. ... -

Hard diffraction in photoproduction with Pythia 8
Helenius, Ilkka; Rasmussen, Christine O. (Springer, 2019)We present a new framework for modeling hard diffractive events in photoproduction, implemented in the general purpose event generator Pythia 8. The model is an extension of the model for hard diffraction with dynamical gap ...
