Introducing JAM (Jet AA Microscopic Transport Model) Y. Nara et.al. Phys. Rev. C61 (2000) JAM is a Hadronic Cascade Model, which explicitly treats all established hadronic states including resonances with explicit spin and isospin as well as their anti-particles. We have parameterized all Hadron-Hadron Cross Sections, based on Resonance Model and String Model by fitting the available experimental data.

New Feature (1) What are we doing in Monte Carlo calculations for particle transport ? MCNP type code  Solving one-body Boltzmann equation by using the evaluated nuclear data. energy is conserved in average. no correlations Only one-body observables  Simulating real phenomena by using event generators. PHITS for high energy by JAM, JQMD. treat all ejectiles of collisions. energy and momentum are conserved in each collision. Any observables Observables beyond one-body quantities are often required. Event Generator Event Generator in PHITS We have developed the event generator mode in PHITS for all energy.

Conclusions  Particle and heavy ion transport code (PHITS) is an essential implement in design study of accelerator facilities for various purpose, in planning system for radiotherapy, and in space radiation.  Description of nuclear reactions in the code is one of the key quantity to determine the accuracy of the transport code.  Tow reaction models: JAM and JQMD and Nuclear data are employed in PHITS to describe the nuclear reactions.  Event generator combined with the nuclear reaction model and the nuclear data is necessary to describe new quantities which are related to the higher order correlations beyond one-body observables.
