Investigation of the energy dependence of the $$p_{\text {T0}}$$ pT0 parameter in the Pythia 8 Monte Carlo event generator

Abstract By using predictions from the Pythia 8 Monte Carlo event generator, we determine the energy-dependent turn-over values ($$p_{\text {T0}}$$ pT0 ) of the partonic cross section for the simulation of multiparton interactions. Since the observed energy dependence of the $$p_{\text {T0}}$$ pT0 v...
