Description

We present a description of a Monte Carlo algorithm that solves the modified DGLAP-type evolution equation in QCD. The change with respect to normal DGLAP is in the form of the argument of the coupling constant. We consider primarily the CCFM-like form (kT), but also a simpler choice α(Q(1 - z)) is discussed. The evolution is performed in the rapidity space with strict rapidity ordering and no gaps in phase-space. (author)
