GEANT4 Simulations

TOSCA

Meetings

Simulation Teleconferences

The Simulation group is led by Juliette Mammei, UMass, from Jefferson Lab and Dustin McNulty, Idaho State University. 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 (Juliette)
    • GDML geometry read-in


  • 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 ()
  • Neutron backgrounds ()
  • Benchmarking generators/radiative effects with GEANT4 physics lists ()
  • Pion backgrounds (NC A&T SU)
