psim

• Generators
• Proton target p0, Pb target p0, photon, pair
  production
• No external input. Is this a feature we want?
• Detector Simulation
• Complete systems
• HYCAL
• VETO
• Helium bag
• Target
• PS box and magnet volume
• Incomplete tasks
• PS detectors
• Verify beamline
• Verify survey information
• Spaceframe support structure
• MC banks
• MCGEN, MCPART, MCDEPOSITED
• Works fine

psim_digitize
Software to convert MC banks to raw detector
banks, add pedestals, and detector resolution.

• VETOA and VETOT ids do not match particle
  4-vectors
• TAGT and TAGE missing TAGE in output
• PS no existing code
• HYCAL missing in output
• TRIGT exists in output but not checked

Detector resolution is done with a gaussian
function.
