Software overview
Full Simulation
The software is currently being developed. Here is only the software short description with links. Please read the full desctiption next.
The main repository for ATHENA software is here
DD4Hep
DD4hep is a software framework for providing a complete solution for full detector description (geometry, materials, visualization, readout, alignment, calibration, etc.) for the full experiment life cycle (detector concept development, detector optimization, construction, operation). It offers a consistent description through a single source of detector information for simulation, reconstruction, analysis, etc.
Juggler
Gaudi based digitization and reconstruction framework. Currently it supports ACTS based tracking, calorimetry reconstruction, some PID like RICH
- Project Juggler
- EICD - EIC event data model implemented in PODIO
Validation
On any commit to detector or reconstruction repository a bunch of validation benchmarks are being automatically run. Current benchmarks repository
- Detector benchmarks - Detector benchmarks are meant to test for regressions in individual detector subsystems without a complex reconstruction
- Reconstruction benchmarks - Reconstruction specific benchmarks (calorimetry, tracking, PID)
- Physics benchmarks - Check physical processes such as DIS, DVCS, etc.
- Cost estimation - (in develoment) A weighted evaluation of the detector performance versus estimated cost.
