  1. Linear Collider Simulation Tools Norman Graf ECFA LC Workshop Durham, Sep. 4, 2004

  2. Detector Requirements • Detectors designed to exploit the physics discovery potential of e+e- collisions at s ~ 1TeV. • Will perform precision measurements of complex final states. • Require: • Exceptional momentum resolution • Excellent vertexing capabilities • “Energy Flow” calorimetry • Hermeticity Norman Graf

  3. Detector Requirements • Yes, but still need to quantify! • Exceptional momentum resolution • is dp/p ~ few 10-5 really necessary! • How important is material? • Excellent vertexing capabilities • What are the effects of inner radius, thickness, number of layers • “Energy Flow” calorimetry • Is 30%/E needed? Can we do better? Norman Graf

  4. Particle Flow Motivation • Measure momenta of charged tracks in the tracker with superb resolution. • Measure photons in highly segmented EM calorimeter with reasonable resolution. • Remaining neutral hadrons measured in hadron calorimeter. Norman Graf

  5. No tool is too simple… Norman Graf

  6. Tracker Resolution Tool lcdtrk • Bruce Schumm has developed a nice tool which allows rapid investigation of tracker designs. • Input is simplified geometry, materials and point resolution. • Output is resolution plots plus covariance matrices which can immediately be used to smear tracks in the fast Monte Carlo. http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~schumm/lcdtrk.tar.gz Norman Graf

  7. Fast MC • Covariantly smears charged tracks. • Smears neutral calorimeter showers by expected resolutions. • Can be used as input for further analyses. • Jet Finding • ZVTop vertexing • Can vary resolutions at analysis time and produce plots of x vs resolution, eff., etc. Norman Graf

  8. MC Event Raw Event G4Application Geometry Geometry Database Reconstruction, Visualization, … LC Detector Full Simulation GEANT4 Norman Graf

  9. LCD Full Simulation • Geometry defined in XML. • Flexible, but simplified volumes. • Projective readout of sensitive volumes. • Dynamic topology, not just parameters. • Have defined generic hit classes for sensitive tracker and calorimeter hits. • LCIO bindings for I/O. Norman Graf

  10. LC Detector Simulations • Use simplified volumes to investigate larger number of designs, allowing dynamic topologies using single executable. • Describe “optimal” detector in detail. TPC Tracker, Si Disks, CCD VTX Norman Graf All Si Tracker, CCD VTX

  11. Reconstruction/Analysis Overview • Java based reconstruction and analysis package • Runs standalone or inside Java Analysis Studio (JAS) • Fast MC • Smeared tracks and calorimetry clusters • Full Reconstruction • track finding and fitting • calorimeter clustering • Individual Particle reconstruction (cluster-track association) • Analysis Tools (including WIRED event display) • Physics Tools (Vertex Finding, Jet Finding, Flavor Tagging) • Beam Background Overlays Norman Graf

  12. hep.lcd Physics Utilities • Physics Utilities • 4-vector, 3-vector classes • Event shape/Thrust finder • Jet Finders • Many kT algorithms implemented (e.g. Jade and Durham ) • Extensible to allow implementation of other algorithms • Event Display • Topological Vertexing • Implementation of SLD’s ZVTOP • Event Generators • Can be run directly in FastMC • Can be run standalone, e.g. for writing stdhep files • Diagnostic Generator • User-defined particle mix, momenta and vertices. • Generator framework extensible for other generators • PYTHIA, HERWIG, ISAJET, … Norman Graf

  13. hep.lcd analysis tools • Tutorial: http://jas.freehep.org/jas3/Tutorial/index.html Norman Graf

  14. Tree controls visibility. (HepRep2 support in WIRED3 is preliminary) Picking supports viewing physics attributes WIRED3 Event Display Norman Graf

  15. Reconstruction Status • Full Reconstruction package which incorporates all aspects of the Particle Flow paradigm, works for any detector, and works out-of-the box is not currently available. • However, many of the pieces are in place, can be used today, & active work is underway to incorporate into a finished product. • See talks in simulation session. Norman Graf

  16. Testing Samples • Testing reconstruction on simple events. Study finding efficiency, fake rates and measurement resolutions (E, p, mass) using: • Single Fundamental Particles • e+/-, , +/-, +/- • Simple Composite Single Particles • 0, , , ,  • Complex Composite Single particles • Z, W • Physics Events Norman Graf

  17. Conclusions • A fairly complete suite of simulation tools exists for LC physics and detector studies. • Contributions to the full reconstruction welcomed and invited, but much can be done within the existing framework with released software. Norman Graf
