BeAGLE: Benchmark $e$A Generator for LEptoproduction in high energy lepton-nucleus collisions

Understand

The upcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will address several outstanding puzzles in modern nuclear physics.

• Topics such as the partonic structure of nucleons and nuclei, the origin of their mass and spin, among others, can be understood via the study of high energy electron-proton ($ep$) and electron-nucleus ($e$A) collisions.
• Achieving the scientific goals of the EIC will require a novel electron-hadron collider and detectors capable to perform high-precision measurements, but also dedicated tools to model and interpret the data.
• To aid in the latter, we present a general-purpose $e$A Monte Carlo (MC) generator - BeAGLE.
