# Old simc documentation
*You probably won't need the information past this point*.
## Reactions
***At this time, this version of simc only supports running from an external
event list. Running with the internal generator will be enabled in the
launcher soon.***
SIMC has physics models for the following reactions.
* Elastic and quasi-elastic scatering: H(e,e'p), A(e,e'p)
* Exclusive pion production: H(e,e'pi+)n, A(e,e'pi+/-)
(quasifree or coherent)
* Kaon electroproduction: H(e,e'K+)Lambda,Sigma, A(e,e'K+/-),A(e,e'K-)
* Semi-inclusive pion production: H(e,e'pi+/-)X, D(e,e'pi+/-)X
* Semi-inclusive kaon production: H(e,e'K+/-)X, D(e,e'K+/-)X
* Diffractive rho production: H(e,e'rho->pi+ pi-)p, D(e,e'rho->pi+
pi-)
## SIMC is NOT
* Not a full detector response simulation a la GEANT/GEANT4
* Does NOT simulate a large class of processes simultaneously to
gerate backgrounds (like Pythia for example)
* Not a generic event generator. Processes are generated over a
limited phase space matching the spectrometer acceptances
* Not hard to modify
