Rope hadronization in the DIPSY event generator
Summary
The string model for hadronization meets a challenge in pp collisions with multiple partonic interactions, as several strings will be contained in a small transverse area. The Rope Hadronization model introduces corrections to string hadronization, based on results from Lattice QCD, and is implemented in the event generator DIPSY. Results from the rope hadronization model are presented, along with recommendations for observables distinguishing between different models of soft inclusive physics. The corrections improve the deficit of strange particles in minimum bias pp collisions reported by several experimental collaborations.
