The CKM Monte Carlo simulation is a full GEANT simulation of the detectors
written specifically for CKM namely "CKMGEANT".
The CVS code development platform is used for concurrent development
at different institutions.
It generates beam K+'s with a central momentum of 22 GeV and with
distributions in position, angle, and momentum. Click here for momentum spectrum of the kaons at the entrance of the UMS.
The UVa group is responsible for designing and
generating the UMS and KEAT simulation using a detailed GEANT-based Monte
Carlo.
The UMS performance has been modeled and coupled with an existing tracking
program modified to the UMS specifications. The simulation includes
multiple scattering, interactions, chamber inefficiencies, and multiple
hits. The tracking program is projection-based and hence is not optimal
for multi-track events. A space-point based tracking program is being written
which should improve the ability to resolve events with multiple tracks.
