Creating full detector simulations

To create full simulations, you will need to convert ProMC files to LCIO files. This is described in converting_to_lcio

Pandora PFA

All information required by Pandora algorithm is stored in the file with the extension “.pandora”. This file is created using GeoConvertor, which reads CalorimeterCalibration.properties file. In particular, it reads:

mipEnergy
mipSigma
mipCut
timeCut

The sampling fractions are taken from the detector directory called “SamplingFractions”. Here files look as this:

BeamCal.properties*
EcalBarrel.properties*
EcalEndcap.properties*
HcalBarrel.properties*
HcalEndcap.properties*
LumiCal.properties*
MuonBarrel.properties*
MuonEndcap.properties*
README*

Look at the file:
