EvtGen is the package used in Gauss to generate B decays. It was originally developed and it is maintained by David Lange and Anders Ryd from BaBar and CLEO.

Documentation

A detailed documentation about the conventions used in EvtGen or about the decay models available and the way to use them can be found on the EvtGen web page or at this location in pdf. Instructions on how to setup EvtGen in Gauss and how to write decay files are also given in the Gauss manual.

A documentation of the decay model PVVCPLH is also available here.

Brief description of the generation sequences in Gauss

There are 1 algorithm (Generation) and several tools used in the generation of signal events in Gauss:

And there are 3 methods used to generate signal events (corresponding to the last 3 tools):

The type of method used is decided by the 1 job options: Generation.SampleGenerationTool which has to be set to the name of the tool to use to generate events.

How to run stand alone EvtGen

To perform checks or studies with the generator, it is possible to use Gauss to run only the generation part of the simulation program. This first part may consist :

To d, it is possible to use the Gauss executable with the option file GenStandAlone.opts available in the Gauss package. Using for example Gauss version v25r4 (which is the most recent DC06 version), you have to type on a lxplus machine:

  1. GaussEnv v25r4
  2. cd ~/cmtuser
  3. getpack Sim/Gauss v25r4
  4. getpack Gen/DecFiles head
  5. cd ~/cmtuser/Gen/DecFiles/v13r0/cmt
  6. source setup.csh
  7. cd ~/cmtuser/Sim/Gauss/v25r4/cmt
  8. edit requirement file to "use DecFiles v13r0 Gen"
  9. source setup.csh
  10. gmake
  11. cd ~/cmtuser/Sim/Gauss/v25r4/options
  12. edit "Gauss.opts" file and:
    1. Comment or remove ApplicationMgr.TopAlg += { "Sequencer/Simulation" } ;
    2. Comment or remove #include "$GAUSSOPTS/Simulation.opts"
    3. Comment or remove ApplicationMgr.TopAlg += { "Sequencer/Monitor" } ;
    4. Add #include "$DECFILESROOT/options/XXXXXXXX.opts" at the end of the file.
    5. Uncomment #include "$GAUSSOPTS/GenStandAlone.opts"
    6. In file GenStandAlone.opts comment or remove #include "$GAUSSOPTS/GenStandAlone.opts"
    7. In file GenStandAlone.opts add the lines:

    GaussTape.ItemList = {
    "/Event#1",
    "/Event/Gen#1",
    "/Event/Gen/Header#1",
    "/Event/Gen/Collisions#1",
    "/Event/Gen/HepMCEvents#1"
    };

  13. cd ~/cmtuser/Sim/Gauss/v25r4/job
  14. ../slc3_ia32_gcc323/Gauss.exe ../options/Gauss.opts

You will obtain a file named Gauss.sim in POOL/ROOT format containing the decay trees generated by EvtGen and optionally Pythia. The behavior of the job is controlled by the option files in the options directory of Gauss. The main properties that you may change are:

The output file contains the result of the generation in HepMC format (HepMCEvents containers) in three different locations:

By default, only /Event/Gen/HepMCEvents is saved in the output file. You can choose what to save and add things to save in the option file GenStandAlone.opts. The location "/Event/Gen/SignalDecayTree" is only available in case of events generated with EvtGen only (see at the end of the page) or when generating clean events. The generation of clean events can be activated by job options in the file GenStandAlone.opts.

Please note that as indicated above, not all locations are available depending on the options activated. When trying to save a location that is not available, the program may crash. In this case one should check the consistency between the different options.

By default, EvtGen will be used in conjunction with Pythia and B hadrons will be produced with the correct momentum distribution. If you need only the decay kinematics in the B rest frame, you can use EvtGen alone (it is much faster but generates only B at rest). For this you need to modify the following options:

 By default, Gauss generates a mixture of b and b hadrons (with 50-50 proportions if the signal decay mode is not a CP mode and taking into account the CP asymmetries if it is a CP mode decayed according to a CP decay model). If you want to generate only one type of B hadron, you can specify the PDG Id of the hadron you want to generate in Gauss.opts, at the very end of the file. For B0 for example:

The random seed is controlled by the run number and the event number. To generate independent events,  you have to change for each job the run number with the option GaussInit.RunNumber in Gauss.opts.

Some conventions

In EvtGen, the units are the following:

In HepMC format, the mixing is represented this way: if a B meson is produced as B0 for example and decays as B0, the HepMC record will contain the decay chain B0B0. The first B meson is the type at production (tag) and the second B is the type at decay. If there is only one B, both types are the same and the B has not oscillated. If the decay mode of the B is a CP mode, the flavor of the second B is meaningless and the tag is given by the type of the first B. Since the second B has 0 lifetime, both B's will decay at the same position but the production position of the B is the production vertex of the first B.

Decay files available

The following decay modes are predefined in the package DecFiles. To generate a sample according to the decay mode, change the number of the included option file at the end of GenStandAlone.opts. To have more details about what is generated, look at the corresponding options files and decay files in DecFiles/options and DecFiles/dkfiles.

At the beginning of the job, the branching fraction in the generic decay table of the decay mode under study is printed. If this branching fraction is 0 or if there is a message saying that the decay mode is not in DECAY.DEC, please tell me.

When testing decay files, one should use the latest version of the DecFiles package (typing "getpack Gen/DecFiles head" in ~/cmtuser and updating the version of the package in cmt/requirements of Gauss.)

Event Type, Nickname and Decay Mode follow some conventions described in the following LHCb internal note: LHCb-2005-034.

Analysis Ntuple

You can analyze directly the file Gauss.sim with a Gaudi algorithm.

You can also use the monitoring algorithm GeneratorFullMonitor which is already present in Gauss. This algorithm is located in the package Sim/GaussMonitor.

To add the algorithm to the execution sequence when generating events with Gauss,

Then run the job like before.

You will obtain a hbook Ntuple GaussMonitor.hbook with the content of the HepMC container "/Event/Gen/HepMCEvents". You can modify the code directly to change the content of the Ntuple and to adapt it to your needs. By default, the content of the Ntuple will be :
