milliq_mcgen

A collection of tools for generating signal Monte Carlo for the milliQan experiment:

  • Compute cross sections and branching ratios for all mCP production modes
  • Simulate both two-body and Dalitz decays of parent particles into mCP's
  • Generate root files with all relevant information needed to feed generated mCP's into propagation/simulation software

NOTE: A master milliQan MC tutorial, from initial event generation all the way through pulse injection, can be found here.
