Deskripsi

Abstract 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.
