read Up2date GEMC info at http://gemc.jlab.org for installation and tutorial.

This page has been moved to [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/run https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/run] in the new [https://solid.jlab.org/wiki SoLID Wiki].  Please do not edit this page.

There are a couple way to run GEMC. You can always run it on ifarm for batch mode, but interactive mode will be slow because the OpenGL 3D rendering.  
+
There are files under "script" at SoLID_GEMC SVN to use.
  
−
To run interactive mode, install it locally.
+
edit "set_solidGEMC_farm" or "set_solidGEMC_local" according to your system, see instruction in the file
  
−
To install by rpm package, I recommend to used yum repo, if it somehow doesn't work, download them directly from http://www.jlab.org/12gev_phys/RPMS/
+
run "source set_solidGEMC_farm" or "source set_solidGEMC_local" to setup environment.
  
−
After install, get gcard file, set_solidGEMC and run_solidGEMC from svn "gcards/"
+
'''then do ssh tunnel if you are not on jlab network, refer to [[Solid_mysql_database]]'''
  
−
edit "set_solidGEMC", see instruction in the file

If you are on local machine, put a copy of SoLID CLEO magnetic field map file [http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/SoLID/download/field/solenoid_CLEO.dat solenoid_CLEO.dat] at where defined by the FIELD_DIR option.
  
−
run "source set_solidGEMC" to setup environment.
+
If you are on ifarm, the field map are there already
  
−
(do ssh tunnel if you are not on jlab network, refer to [[Solid_mysql_database]])
+
then run the commands below in a terminal
  
−
put a copy of [http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/SoLID/download/solenoid_BaBar.dat solenoid_BaBar.dat] or other maps at the default location /usr/local/jlab_software/geant4/data/ or anywhere defined by the FIELD_DIR option.

+
These are examples of gemc running interactive mode. you can change options within to your need.
  
−
This is just an example of gemc running options. you can change it to whatever you want, but "keep -DBHOST=$GEMC_HOST unchanged to accommodate mysql server access."
+
'''keep -DBHOST=$GEMC_HOST unchanged to accommodate mysql server access.'''
 +
 
 +
'''change "-USE_PHYSICSL=gemc" to use other physics list, but the current default is "QGSP_BERT". Geant4 group recommend "FTFP_BERT".'''
 +
 
 +
To record passby particles which deposit zero energy in the sensitive area, turn it on by "-RECORD_PASSBY=1"

turn on optical physics by "-OPT_PH=1"
  
 
use -USE_QT=0 to run in batch mode

Latest revision as of 15:39, 7 December 2020

This page has been moved to https://solid.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/run in the new SoLID Wiki. Please do not edit this page.

There are files under "script" at SoLID_GEMC SVN to use.

edit "set_solidGEMC_farm" or "set_solidGEMC_local" according to your system, see instruction in the file

run "source set_solidGEMC_farm" or "source set_solidGEMC_local" to setup environment.

then do ssh tunnel if you are not on jlab network, refer to Solid_mysql_database

If you are on local machine, put a copy of SoLID CLEO magnetic field map file solenoid_CLEO.dat at where defined by the FIELD_DIR option.

If you are on ifarm, the field map are there already

then run the commands below in a terminal 

run_solid_CLEO_SIDIS_3he

run_solid_CLEO_PVDIS

These are examples of gemc running interactive mode. you can change options within to your need.

keep -DBHOST=$GEMC_HOST unchanged to accommodate mysql server access.

change "-USE_PHYSICSL=gemc" to use other physics list, but the current default is "QGSP_BERT". Geant4 group recommend "FTFP_BERT".

To record passby particles which deposit zero energy in the sensitive area, turn it on by "-RECORD_PASSBY=1"

turn on optical physics by "-OPT_PH=1"

use -USE_QT=0 to run in batch mode

use option -geometry=1000x1000 to get larger screen instead of default 600x600

use -EXEC_MACRO=$SoLID_GEMC/script/solid_slice.vis to see the cut-half plot.

combine gcard and command line options, you can control manyfeature of your simulation.

for full command line options, see "Documentation" section at gemc website or use "gemc -help" to get an up2date list, here is a list for your convenience retrieved for GEMC 1.7

   > Option RANDOM: Random Engine Initialization. The argument (seed) can be an integer or the string TIME.
   > Option RECORD_MIRRORS: Set to one if you want to save mirror hits in the output. Default is 0.

   > Option RECORD_PASSBY: Set to one if you want to save zero energy hits in the output. Default is 0.

   > Option RUNNO: Run Number. Controls the geometry and calibration parameters.

   > Option SAVE_ALL_MOTHERS: Set to 1 to save mother vertex and pid infos in output. High Memory Usage. Default is 0.

   > Option SCALE_FIELD: Scales Magnetic Field by a factor.
      Usage:
      -SCALE_FIELD="fieldname, scalefactor"
      Example: -SCALE_FIELD="srr-solenoid, 0.5"

   > Option SECONDARIES: Threshold (in MeV) to save secondary particles. Negative: don't save any.
   > Option SPREAD_P: Spread beam energy and angles (in respect of z-axis). 
      Example: -SPREAD_P="0*GeV, 10*deg, 20*deg" spreads 10 degrees in theta, 20 degrees in phi. 

   > Option SPREAD_V: Spread Beam Radius, Z position. Example: -SPREAD_V="(0.1, 10)cm". 
   > Option USE_PHYSICSL: Physics List. Avaliable choices: 

            * gemc: comprehensive physics list. Optical Physics may be activated with OPT_PH=1 

            The following is a list of other physics lists. More infos can be found here:

            http://geant4.cern.ch/support/proc_mod_catalog/physics_lists/referencePL.shtml

            * LHEP: This is the main LHEP based physics list, using exclusively parameterised modeling. 
            * LHEP_BERT: Like LHEP, but using Geant4 Bertini cascade for primary protons, neutrons, 
               pions and Kaons below ~10GeV.  
            * LHEP_BERT_HP: Like LHEP_BERT with the addition to use the data driven high precision.
               neutron package (NeutronHP) to transport neutrons below 20 MeV down to thermal energies.
            * QGSP:  Quark-Gluon String model based physics list. 
            * QGSP_BERT: Like QGSP, but using Geant4 Bertini cascade for primary protons, neutrons, 
               pions and Kaons below ~10GeV.  
            * QGSP_BERT_HP: Like QGSP_BERT with the addition to use the data driven high precision.
               neutron package (NeutronHP) to transport neutrons below 20 MeV down to thermal energies.
            * QGSP_BIC: Like QGSP, but using Geant4 Binary cascade for primary protons and neutrons 
               with energies below ~10GeV.  
            * QGSP_BIC_HP: Like QGSP_BIC with the addition to use the data driven high precision.
               neutron package (NeutronHP) to transport neutrons below 20 MeV down to thermal energies.
            * QGSC_BERT: The quark-gluon string (QGS) part handles the formation of strings in the initial
              collision of a hadron with a nucleon in the nucleus. String fragmentation into hadrons is
              handled by the Quark-Gluon String fragmentation model. The Chiral Invariant Phase Space (CHIPS)
              part handles the de-excitation of the remnant nucleus. Uses Geant4 Bertini cascade for primary
              protons, neutrons, pions and Kaons below ~10GeV. 

   > Option USE_QT: QT GUI switch
      0.  Don't use the graphical interface
      1.  QT OpenGL Immediate mode (can interact with picture; sliders works well; slower than Stored mode)
      2.  OpenGL Stored mode (can't interact with picture; sliders works well)
      3.  OpenGL Immediate mode (can't interact with picture; sliders works well; slower than Stored mode)
      4.  QT OpenGL Stored mode (can interact with picture; sliders works but picture needs to be updated by clicking on it)

   > Option gcard: gemc card file.
   > Option geometry: Specify the size of the QT display window. Default '600x600'
