Description

We describe an event generator that reproduces the photon-nucleon interaction from the pion threshold up to 4 GeV accounting to a large extent for the total photoabsorption cross section. Many reaction channels on the nucleon have been considered: namely single pion production, eta production, multipion production and some hyperon production channels. Compatibility with the GEANT and PAW software packages has been assured throughout. The extension to reactions on two and three nucleon systems is discussed. ((orig.))
