Description
A geometry management system (GMS) is designed for the Offline Software of Super Tau Charm Facility (STCF) in China. Based on the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) and Detector Description Toolkit for High Energy Physics Experiments (DD4Hep), the system provides a consistent detector-geometry description for different offline applications, such as simulation, reconstruction and visualization. It is being used for detector optimization and performance evaluation with a customized full detector simulation package (FullSim). The paper presents the design, implementation, and performance of the GMS.
Summary
A GMS was developed in OSCAR to provide a consistent geometry description
for different offline applications and to set up a unified and user-friendly software environment
for detector designers. In addition, a flexible geometry assembly of sub-detectors and an easy
switching among different detector design options were achieved. Several packages were developed
to make the workflow of the system easy and efficient. Moreover, performance evaluation and
design optimization for STCF detectors were performed using the FullSim package along with
the GMS. In the future, the GMS will be redesigned and re-developed to serve a wide range of
applications, including reconstruction, visualization, and analysis.
