# musrSim simulation #
|
|
|
|
### Contents ###
|
|
|
|
This is the C++ source code for the musrSim simulation software which is intended to be a general tool to design and simulate µSR spectrometer with very high accuracy. To compile and run musrSim, the user must have a recent Geant4 (tested with v11.0.3) and Root (tested with v6-22-06) installed (Root version is not critical).
|
|
|
|
* The code is specifically tuned to simulate muon spin spectrometers.
|
|
* The code is maintained by the Laboratory for Muon Spin Spectroscopy at PSI.
|
|
|
|
### Supported platforms ###
|
|
|
|
* Linux and any other decent OS that can run Root and GEANT4.
|
|
|
|
### Installation ###
|
|
|
|
Compile and install Geant4, we recomment the use of the following cmake flags
|
|
|
|
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/installation /path/to/source -DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON -DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON -DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=ON
|
|
|
|
Clone the musrSim repository
|
|
|
|
git clone https://zaher-salman@bitbucket.org/zaher-salman/musrsim.git
|
|
|
|
then
|
|
|
|
cd musrsim
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake ../
|
|
make -j8
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
This will install the `musrSim` binary in `/usr/local/bin`, but it can be moved to any other directory in your `PATH`.
|
|
|
|
### Running the simulations ###
|
|
|
|
Prepare a file, `finlename.mac`, with your beamline and spectrometer design following the instruction in the [musrSim manual](https://bitbucket.org/zaher-salman/musrsim/src/master/doc/musrSim.pdf).
