Pythia event generation skill for proton-proton and lepton collisions at high energies

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the Pythia Event Generator skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by a5c-ai/babysitter in library/specializations/domains/science/physics/skills/pythia-event-generator/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Purpose

Provides expert guidance on Pythia event generation for high-energy physics, including process configuration, hadronization, and shower matching.

Capabilities

  • Process selection and configuration
  • Parton distribution function management
  • Hadronization and decay settings
  • Underlying event tuning
  • HepMC output generation
  • Shower matching (MLM, CKKW)

Usage Guidelines

  1. Process Configuration: Select physics processes for event generation
  2. PDFs: Configure parton distribution functions
  3. Hadronization: Set hadronization and decay parameters
  4. Tuning: Apply appropriate underlying event tunes
  5. Output: Generate HepMC format for downstream analysis

Tools/Libraries

  • Pythia8
  • HepMC
  • LHAPDF
