Abstract

We present the classically simulated integration of a hadronization model, based on neutral Rydberg atoms, with the PYTHIA event generator. The real-time evolution of an interpreted charge-anticharge, in our Rydberg model, displays features similar to string-breaking - reminiscent of the Lund string fragmentation model used in PYTHIA for hadronization. We calculate the real-time evolution classically for a Rydberg simulator with up to 26 atoms. The behavior for increasing sites suggests that the model would be approaching semi-realistic hadron multiplicities using current QuEra hardware.
