oct_sim

Quick simulation for the MMTP trigger C++ version working, python version out-of-date

PYTHON VERSION

WARNING: not up to date! If on herophysics, just to have numpy and pyroot together:

source hero_setup.sh

C++ VERSION

make
./sim 
./sim -n 100 -ch <chamber type> -b <bkg rate in Hz/strip> -o output.root -uvr -thrx 3 -thruv 3

Configurable parameters include:

• [-n] nevents generated
• [-sig] ART resolution (ns) :: default 32 ns
• [-x] road size :: default 8 strips
• [-w] BC window size :: default 8 BC
• [-ch] chamber type
• [-b] bkg rate in Hz/strip. Use -1 to get rate predicted at HL-LHC
• [-p] plotting :: default OFF
• [-o] output file ::
• [-uvr] turn on UV roads :: default OFF
• [-hdir] name of histograms TDirectory :: default "histograms"
• [-e] chamber efficiency (0 to 1) :: default 0.9
• [-ideal-vmm] allow the VMM to always pick the signal hit :: default OFF
• [-ideal-tp] allow the TP to always pick the signal hit :: default OFF
• [-seed] set the seed for TRandom3 :: default none (seed is not set)
• [-thrx] set the X coincidence threshold :: default 2
• [-thruv] set the UV coincidence threshold :: default 2
• [-tree] write a TTree of hits and triggers :: default OFF
• [-angx] flat distribution of angles, in degrees :: default 0
• [-angy] flat distribution of angles, in degrees :: default 0
