HepSim manual

HepSim is a public repository with Monte Carlo simulated events for particle-collision experiments. The HepSim repository was started at ANL during the US long-term planning study of the American Physical Society’s Division of Particles and Fields (Snowmass 2013). It contains predictions from leading-order (LO) parton shower models, next-to-leading order (NLO) and NLO with matched parton showers. It also includes Monte Carlo events after fast (“parametric”) and full (Geant4) detector simulations and event reconstruction.

HepSim contains event samples for physics and detector-performace studies for High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), International Linear Collider (ILC), Very Large Hadron Collider (VLHC), Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee and FCC-hh), Compact Linear Collider (CLIC), Circular Electron-Positron Collider (CEPC), Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) and other future particle colliders.
