The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; show every role.

We present the Modular Algorithm for Relativistic Treatment of heavy IoN Interactions (MARTINI), an event generator for the hard and penetrating probes in high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions. The simulation consists of a time evolution model for the soft background, such as hydrodynamics, PYTHIA 8.1 to generate and hadronize the hard partons after the medium evolution, which is based on the McGill-AMY formalism and includes both radiative and elastic processes. MARTINI allows for the generation of full event configurations in the high transverse momentum region. We present results for the neutral pion and photon nuclear modification factor in Au+Au collisions at RHIC.
