Generators for the SIS/DIS region

Abstract

We describe how the main neutrino interaction generators (GENIE, NEUT and NuWro) used by current neutrino oscillation experiments treat the shallow and deep inelastic region. We then compare their predictions for charged current events in this region, in terms of transferred momentum as well as multiplicities for different types of hadrons. We present additional comparisons in the low hadronic invariant mass region, where the generators use different custom models.
