Monte Carlo event generators (MCEG) have shown to be a very powerful tool to tackle the fragmentation dynamics of atoms driven by heavy ions and electrons [1,2]. One of the advantages MCEG offer is the possibility to include in a direct way the experimental conditions in the theoretical calculations. We present in this work an extension of MCEG to treat single ionization of H atoms by laser pulses employing the time-dependent distorted wave approach. We show how the experimental resolution affects the structures present in the angle-resolved photoelectron spectrum and in the electron energy distributions. \\[4pt] [1] M. F. Ciappina {\it et al}.
