[Hybrid baryons] EM background events

[Daniel Carman]

Folks,

We met with Harut Avakian after today’s hybrid meeting to learn a bit more about
the status of the PYTHIA DIS event generator that he has been using for his
studies. The generator can be used to produce our non-physics EM backgrounds 
that can be merged with our nominal Npipi and KY events for our studies. The 
generator is based on quasi-real electrons and is nominally limited to events with 
W > 2 GeV. Harut indicated that he can modify the generator so that it goes down to
W=1.7 GeV.

He pointed us to the events that he has generated at 11 GeV with W > 2 GeV at:
/group/clas12/mcdata/generated/lund/low-q2-for-pid

These files can be used to get started. Evgeny and Lucilla can contact Harut to
generate events for other beam energies and for lower W and he is ready to
provide assistance.

Regards,
Daniel
