The PYTHIA Event Generator: Past, Present and Future
arXiv:1907.09874 · doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2019.106910
Abstract
The evolution of the widely-used PYTHIA particle physics event generator is outlined, from the early days to the current status and plans. The key decisions and the development of the major physics components are put in context.
