Feb. 21, 2022 don la dieu (nega AT icecube.umd.edu)

IceTray release v1.3.0

  • Fixed a bug in the dethinning algorithm which allows for superluminal particles and augments the wavefront

  • Removed assumption that “TankA=0 and TankB=1”, and replaced with function that does not assume ordering

  • Added “submit_chain” script

  • Changed the injector so that values are stored in the frame in I3Units instead of CORSIKA units. Corresponding change in simclasses to still make them print out in g/cm2

  • Add scintillator response options (IceTopScintPESeriesName,IceTopScintHitSeriesName,IceTopScintHitSeriesNamePhotons) to the topsimulator. The number of MCPE calculated are stored in IceTopScintPESeriesName. The MC hit series is stored as IceTopScintHitSeriesName and a debug IceTopScintHitSeriesNamePhotons.

  • Enables CorsikaReader to read Corsika cherenkov files for the IceAct modules

Mar. 1, 2021 Matthias Plum (mplum@icecube.wisc.edu)

  • Fix energy definition in CorsikaReader to forward kinetic energy to g4-tankresponse instead of total energy

  • Add option to manually rotate corsika air shower (arrang)

  • Fix typos

Dec. 20, 2019 Alex Olivas (aolivas@umd.edu)

Combo Release V00-00-00

  • add __bool__ to ValidationReport in addition to __nonzero__. python2 uses __nonzero__ but python3 uses __bool__.

  • Fix GCD position for unit test

V01-03-02

  • link cleanup and documentation updates

V01-03-01

  • (r158928) Added support for printing most types

  • (r156953) Adapted to latest dataio changes.

  • (r158807) Updated test scripts

V01-03-00

  • Added tank geometry to interface injector service base class.

  • Added CorrectObservationLevel parameter to I3CorsikaThinnedInjector that causes and automatic check of the observation level in corsika showers.

  • Added GetObsLevel to I3CorsikaReader.

  • Added GetSnowHeight method to I3TankResponse interface.

  • New particle injector for thinned CORSIKA files: I3CorsikaThinnedInjector. It should be used with care as it has not been validated.

  • Removed an older segment called SimulateOld.

V01-01-02

  • Added an ExtendedI3Particle class that includes a data member for the air shower component it belongs to.

  • Particle injectors now set the particle’s air shower component. This is propagated all the way until DOM simulation, creating lists of I3MCPEs, where it becomes impossible to proceed due to droop. The definition of components is up to the injectors.

  • Added I3TopAddComponentWaveforms, a module to add “waveforms” corresponding to the classification of air shower particles in components. These waveforms are made from the I3MCPEs within the time window of each launch.

  • renamed sim-icetop.py -> sim_icetop.py and sim-single-particles.py -> sim_single_particles.py

  • Add the option to adjust the observation level in I3CorsikaInjector. This is to avoid injecting particles under the top of the snow.

V01-01-00

  • Added importance sampling algorithm to be used for low-energy showers. To use the algorithm, set the ImportanceSampling parameter in I3CorsikaInjector.

  • Added sim-icetop.py and sim-single-particles.py to resources/scripts. These can be used for general simulations.
