musrSim simulation

Contents

This is the C++ source code for the musrSim simulation software. This software is intended to be a general tool for the whole µSR community. To compile and run musrSim, the user has to have a recent Geant4 (tested with v11.0.3) and Root (tested with v6-22-06) installed. The 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

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 in /usr/local/bin, but 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.
