LUNAR is a new open Monte Carlo generator for bound nucleon decays in argon-40 that models Fermi motion, off-shell binding, and intranuclear cascades to predict meson spectra for DUNE nucleon-decay searches.

abstract
We present the results of searches for nucleon decay via bound neutron to antineutrino plus pizero and proton to antineutrino plus piplus using data from a combined 172.8 kiloton-years exposure of Super-Kamiokande-I, -II, and -III. We set lower limits on the partial lifetime for each of these modes. For antineutrino pizero, the partial lifetime is >1.1x10^{33} years; for antineutrino piplus, the partial lifetime is >3.9x10^{32} years at 90% confidence level.
