EpIC: novel Monte Carlo generator for exclusive processes

We present the EpIC Monte Carlo event generator for exclusive processes based on generalised parton distributions. EpIC utilises the PARTONS framework, which provides a flexible software architecture and a variety of modelling options for the partonic description of the nucleon. The generator offers a comprehensive set of features, including simulation of a variety of exclusive processes and radiative corrections. It may be used both in the analysis of experimental data, as well as for impact studies, especially for the future electron-ion colliders.

Automated summary

The EpIC Monte Carlo event generator, based on generalised parton distributions, offers simulation of various exclusive processes and radiative corrections, suitable for both experimental data analysis and impact studies.
