Description

RapidSim is a fast Monte Carlo generator for simulation of heavy-quark hadron decays. It can be useful for generating background or toy data sets for acceptance studies.

  • It uses TGenPhaseSpace to generate b/c quark hadron decays.
  • FONLL is used to give the b/c the correct production kinematics for the LHC.
  • The daughter particle momenta are smeared correctly using user-defined resolutions.
  • Cuts can be made on daughter particle properties (pT, eta, etc).
  • Particle mass hypotheses can be swapped to investigate effect of mis-identification.
