Solid simulation with GEMC

General info

For new users

Read the general GEMC info on its website to learn what it is. In particular take a look at the GEMC tutorials.

Check out the installation and running guide to run GEMC with Solid configuration.

Finally you can go through rest of items to really start using it.

Many information are cross linked through pages even with SoLID hardware design and software analysis. So make sure to browse around.

Any question, please email Zhiwen Zhao zwzhao@jlab.org

Quick start

For a quick start, run the following commands on ifarm:

source /site/12gev_phys/ce/jlab.csh
setenv SoLID_GEMC ~/solid_gemc
svn checkout https://jlabsvn.jlab.org/svnroot/solid/solid_gemc $SoLID_GEMC
setenv GEMC_HOST soliddb.jlab.org
setenv GEMC_field /u/group/halla/www/hallaweb/html/12GeV/SoLID/download/field
$SoLID_GEMC/script/run_solid_CLEO_PVDIS

Things to know

GEMC ouput with unit MeV, mm, ns in flux and gen banks, we should keep the same unit for newly generated banks.

GEMC doesn't record passby particles which deposit zero energy in the sensitive area. To record it by option "-RECORD_PASSBY=1"

install GEMC for SoLID simulation
