Running the GEANT4 simulation code

These notes are at the moment more to remind myself how to to things than to document anything

Instructions for compiling on SL linux boxes

cd ~/geant4
more README

to run the code

cd /home/tl/geant4/v1.3.0
. ../geant4.9.6.p01/geant4.9.6-build/geant4make.sh
~/geant4_workdir/bin/Linux-g++/UCGretina eu152/eu152.mac
ls -lt *.out

or

 cd /home/tl/geant4/v1.3.0
. ../geant4.9.6.p01/geant4.9.6-build/geant4make.sh
~/geant4_workdir/bin/Linux-g++/UCGretina co60/co60.mac
ls -lt *.out
mv co60.out /media/120621a/user/gtdata/G4Co60_NSCL/g4.dat

To make mode2/mode1 data and analyze with GEBSort, you can do something like this: first download the GEBSort packages see xxx the

 make 
 make G4toMode2_US

that will make the G4toMode2_US program that can read the GEANT4 output files, pack the data and write it in mode2 format.

 rm GTDATA/g4_mode2.out
 ./G4toMode2_US \
    /media/120621a/user/gtdata/G4Co60_NSCL/g4.dat \
    GTDATA/g4_mode2.out \
    G4toMode2.chat > GTDATA/G4toMode2.log
  ls -lh GTDATA/g4_mode2.out

You can look at this mode2 data with GEBSort_nogeb

 rm GTDATA/test.root
 ./GEBSort_nogeb \
   -input disk GTDATA/g4_mode2.out RECREATE \
   -chat GEBSort.chat \
   -rootfile GTDATA/test.root > GTDATA/GEBSort.log

or you can track the data and look at both the mode1 and mode2 data as

  rm GTDATA/g4_mode2.out
 ./G4toMode2_US \
    /media/120621a/user/gtdata/G4Co60_NSCL/g4.dat \
    GTDATA/g4_mode2.out \
    G4toMode2.chat > GTDATA/G4toMode2.log
  ls -lh GTDATA/g4_mode2.out

  ./trackMain track.chat  GTDATA/g4_mode2.out  GTDATA/g4_mode1.out      > GTDATA/trackMain.log

  rm GTDATA/test.root
 ./GEBSort_nogeb \
   -input disk GTDATA/g4_mode1.out RECREATE \
   -chat GEBSort.chat \
   -rootfile GTDATA/test.root > GTDATA/GEBSort.log
