Creating LCIO files
In many cases, HepSim detector simulations were done using ILCSOFT-derived software, such as those used for ILC, CLIC, etc. experiments.
To perform Geant4 simulations, you will need to convert PROMC to SLCIO or STDHEP files. You can convert ProMC data to STDHEP or LCIO (MCParticle) with full simulations using promc2stdhep or promc2lcio converters:
wget http://atlaswww.hep.anl.gov/hepsim/soft/promc_convert.tgz tar -zvxf promc_convert.tgz cd promc_convert promc2lcio.sh input.promc output.slcio # convert to SLCIO promc2stdhep.sh input.promc output.stdhep # convert to STDHEP
Files in the LCIO or STDHEP formats can be used as input for DD4HEP or SLIC simulation packages.
Many samples of HepSim were created with a dedicated FPadSim package. See FPadSim section.
