GEANT4 Simulations

TOSCA

Meetings

Simulation Teleconferences

The Simulation group is led by Klaus Grimm and Neven Simicevic, Louisiana Tech, and organized by Juliette Mammei, UMass, from Jefferson Lab. The group will meet regularly to discuss the progress of the MOLLER simulations.

Projects

Development

  • Ongoing improvements to moller_sim (used to generate physics results for proposal)
    • improving generators (Dustin)
    • geometry specification (Juliette)
    • batch submission (Juliette)
    • Additional generators (pion production, including rare weak decays)
    • changes to the tree to make secondary tracking more useful


  • Development of molgemc (using GEMC, developed in Hall B and used by CLAS)
    • external generators (Dustin)
    • read-in of two field maps (Juliette)
    • Hit processing
    • Output (EVIO->Root?)
    • set up mysql database, add to svn, documentation

Simulation

  • Collimator optimization (Sereres Johnston)
  • Simulation of weak decays (Konrad Aniol's student)
  • Detector simulations (Jon Wexler)
  • Al backgrounds (Mark Pitt's student)
  • Power deposited in collimator and coils (Damon Spayde's student)
  • Neutron backgrounds
  • Benchmarking generators/radiative effects with GEANT4
  • pion backgrounds (NC A & T SU)
