Simulation Development Group
The purpose of the Simulation Development Group is to develop and maintain
code for the Monte Carlo simulation of events in the BaBar detector. The
group consists of a core sub-group which deals with general simulation issues
such as event generation, tracking and performance, and representatives from
each sub-detector group who deal with simulation issues specific to their
group.
- 14 August 2003 - posted CHEP03 paper on Using Geant4 in the BaBar Simulation
under Documenation, Papers
The following table lists the members of the simulation group along with
their area of responsibility. If there are any omissions or errors, please
contact me.
The group is currently involved in the validation and tuning of the
Geant4-based simulation. New efforts include:
- Extension of the PEP beamline simulation to include the IR region out through Q5 in LER and HER
- the revival and/or development of a fast simulation
- increasing the speed of the existing simulation
- hadronic validation
Specific areas which are in need of additional manpower are described on the help wanted page.
If you would like to get involved in any of these projects, or are just
interested, please contact the
simulation coordinator or any
of the people listed above.
Agendas, minutes and documentation from previous meetings are listed
here.
