Monte Carlo generator ELRADGEN 2.0 for simulation of radiative events in elastic ep-scattering of polarized particles
Abstract
The structure and algorithms of the Monte Carlo generator ELRADGEN 2.0 designed to
simulate radiative events in polarized ep-scattering are presented. The full set of
analytical expressions for the QED radiative corrections is presented and discussed
in detail. Algorithmic improvements implemented to provide faster simulation of hard
real photon events are described. Numerical tests show high quality of generation
of photonic variables and radiatively corrected cross section. The comparison of the
elastic radiative tail simulated within the kinematical conditions of the BLAST experiment
at MIT BATES shows a good agreement with experimental data. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All
