Latest news about SGV - A fast
and simple program for simulating high energy physics experiments at colliding
beam detectors.
Feb. 18 1998
New version as of Feb. 18 1998 : SGV 2.01
Major change is only to documentation:
The user's Guide as well as the Reference manual are now
fully marked up for LaTeX
They are also fully Web-browsable.
The SGVALL.CAR PAM-file should still be readable.
A few minor bug fixes:
The name of the CMS energy steering card was wrong in the
sample file. This has been fixed.
The case of a Lambda decaying into a neutron and a neutral
pion was treated wrongly if the decay took place after the
Lambda reached a calorimeter. This has been fixed.
More functionality
The default ZAUSER now fills some sample histograms, useful
for initial checks.
A sample kumac file to create the histogram file to be
filled by the new ZAUSER is also extracted by the installation
procedure.
Yet another alternative user generator has been included.
It simply reads LUJETS from an external file.
