Particle IDs

This page lists all particle species implemented in GiBUU with their internal ID code and general properties. All masses and widths are given in GeV. A full database of particle properties, including decay modes, can be found here.

Note: The GiBUU ID codes (second column) differ from the ​PDG ID codes (last column). While the latter identify a particular state uniquely, the former typically refer to a isospin multiplett only (whose members are distinguished by charge).

\(^{(*)}\) In PYTHIA the \(\sigma\) has ID=10221, while GiBUU uses a PDG-style ID=60221.

\(^{(**)}\) Instead of \(K^0\)=311, \(\overline{K}^0\)=-311, you may also use \(K_L^0\)=130, \(K_S^0\)=310.
