DarkPhoton-LNLS

Detector simulation for search of Dark Photon in beam-dump experiment

This project is a simplified simulation of the PADME experiment at INFN LNF using Geant4

How to install the simulation

Users must have at least Geant4 version 11 installed.

1. Clone this project
2. If you are in /simulation create a build folder

   mkdir build
   

3. Inside build use

   cmake
   

4. Then you can run

   make
   

5. Finally, to start the simulation, you can run

   ./main
   

   Alternatively, it is possible to run a macro file that runs 100000 events with no GUI. The data is stored in a ROOT file.

   ./main run.mac
