Physics Lists and Validation tools: Workplan 2021

Ongoing activities

  • Physics Lists
  • Documentation of physics lists(~All)
  • Maintain physics constructors and physics lists, including support (~All)
  • Physics List Validation Using Beam Simulation (Kihyeon, Soonwook)
  • Validation tools
  • Support for changing of model parameters (Hans, Julia, Krzysztof, Robert)
  • geant-val:
  • Release, candidate and reference tag testing for physics performance on Grid (Alberto, Dmitri, Witold)
  • maintenance & further developments  (Dmitri, Grigory)

Development Items

  • Physics Lists
  • Recommendation / Documentation of physics lists for specific use cases ( ~ All)
  • Documentation of physics lists examples ( Alex, in collaboration with documentation wg.)
  • Allow to vary cross sections and models for systematic studies (Vladimir) - added Sept ‘20
  • Review of physics lists code
  • produce graphs showing overlap of models (currently done by hand), very useful as a simple graph for new users (missing MP)
  • Introduce hypernuclei treatment for EM and hadronic physics in physics list (Vladimir
  • Validation tools
  • geant-val
  • migration of the Validation Database (VDB aka DoSSiER) data to a to be determined database (Hans)
