It integrates with FairSoft (provides ROOT, Geant4, VMC) and FairRoot (provides the task/run framework). + +## Environment Setup + +Before building or running anything, the environment must be loaded. The VSCode terminal auto-sources this on startup: + +```bash +source build/config.sh +``` + +This sets `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`, `ROOTSYS`, `VMCWORKDIR`, `ROOT_INCLUDE_PATH`, and Geant4 data paths. The key install paths on this machine are: +- FairRoot: `~/fair_install/FairRootInstall` +- FairSoft: `~/fair_install/FairSoftInstall` + +For CMake configuration (not the build itself), the following env vars are needed: +```bash +export FAIRROOTPATH=~/fair_install/FairRootInstall +export SIMPATH=~/fair_install/FairSoftInstall +``` + +## Build Commands + +```bash +# Configure (from repo root, out-of-source into build/) +cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/fair_install/hdf5 + +# Build (10 parallel jobs) +cmake --build build -j10 + +# Build a specific target +cmake --build build --target AtSimulationData -j10 + +# Run all unit tests +cd build && ctest -V + +# Run a specific test binary directly +./build/tests/AtSimulationDataTests +./build/tests/AtGeneratorsTests +./build/tests/AtToolsTests +``` + +Tests are built by default (`BUILD_TESTS=ON`). Test binaries are placed in `build/tests/`. + +## Code Formatting + +The project uses `clang-format-17` with the config in `.clang-format` (based on LLVM style, 3-space indent, 120-char column limit). Format on save is configured in VSCode. To format manually: + +```bash +clang-format-17 -i +# Or format all changed files: +scripts/formatAll.sh +``` + +Static analysis uses `clang-tidy` (config in `.clang-tidy`): modernize-* and cppcoreguidelines-* checks. + +## Architecture + +The framework follows FairRoot's task pipeline pattern: data flows through a chain of `FairTask` subclasses, persisted as ROOT TClonesArrays in a TTree. + +### Module Overview + +| Module | Purpose | +|--------|---------| +| `AtSimulationData` | MC truth data: `AtStack`, `AtMCTrack`, `AtMCPoint`, `AtVertexPropagator` | +| `AtGenerators` | FairGenerator subclasses for beam/reaction/decay event generation | +| `AtDetectors` | Geant4 sensitive detector implementations (AT-TPC, GADGET-II, SpecMAT, etc.) | +| `AtDigitization` | Converts MC points → simulated pad signals (`AtClusterize`, `AtPulse`) | +| `AtUnpack` | Unpacks raw experimental data (GET/GRAW, HDF5, ROOT formats) | +| `AtData` | Core data classes: `AtRawEvent`, `AtEvent`, `AtHit`, `AtPad`, `AtTrack` | +| `AtMap` | Pad mapping between electronics channels and detector geometry | +| `AtParameter` | FairRuntimeDb parameter containers | +| `AtReconstruction` | PSA, pattern recognition, fitting tasks | +| `AtTools` | Utilities: energy loss (CATIMA), kinematics, space charge, hit sampling | +| `AtAnalysis` | High-level analysis tasks and `AtRunAna` | +| `AtS800` | S800 spectrograph data handling | +| `AtEventDisplay` | ROOT Eve-based event display | + +### Data Flow + +**Simulation pipeline** (macros in `macro/Simulation/`): +1. `FairPrimaryGenerator` with an `AtReactionGenerator` subclass → particle stack +2. Geant4/VMC transport → `AtMCPoint` hits in sensitive volumes +3. `AtClusterizeTask` → electron clusters from ionization +4. `AtPulseTask` → simulated pad signals (`AtRawEvent`) + +**Reconstruction pipeline** (macros in `macro/Unpack_*/` and `macro/Analysis/`): +1. `AtUnpackTask` → `AtRawEvent` (raw pad traces) +2. `AtFilterTask` → filtered `AtRawEvent` +3. `AtPSAtask` (Pulse Shape Analysis) → `AtEvent` with `AtHit` objects +4. `AtSampleConsensusTask` / `AtPRAtask` → `AtPatternEvent` with `AtTrack` objects +5. `AtMCFitterTask` / `AtFitterTask` → fitted tracks with kinematics + +### Key Design Patterns + +**FairTask subclasses**: Each processing step is a `FairTask`. They retrieve input branches via `TClonesArray*` from `FairRootManager` in `Init()` and process them in `Exec()`. + +**AtReactionGenerator**: Abstract base for all reaction generators. Subclasses implement `GenerateReaction()`. The `ReadEvent()` method is `final` and handles the beam/reaction event alternation via `AtVertexPropagator`. Generators can be chained for sequential decays using `SetSequentialDecay(true)`. + +**AtVertexPropagator**: Singleton (`AtVertexPropagator::Instance()`) that communicates vertex, momentum, and kinematics between chained generators and downstream tasks. Alternates beam/reaction events via `EndEvent()`. Use `ResetForTesting()` in unit tests. + +**PSA (Pulse Shape Analysis)**: `AtPSA` is the abstract base. Concrete implementations (`AtPSAMax`, `AtPSAFull`, `AtPSADeconv`, etc.) extract hits from pad traces. `AtPSAComposite` allows chaining PSA methods. + +**Energy loss**: `AtELossModel` is the base; `AtELossCATIMA` wraps the CATIMA library (fetched automatically if not installed). Used via `AtELossManager`. + +### Adding a New Module Library + +Each module's `CMakeLists.txt` follows this pattern: +```cmake +set(LIBRARY_NAME MyModule) +set(SRCS file1.cxx file2.cxx) +set(DEPENDENCIES ATTPCROOT::AtData ROOT::Core ...) +set(TEST_SRCS MyModuleTest.cxx) +attpcroot_generate_tests(${LIBRARY_NAME}Tests SRCS ${TEST_SRCS} DEPS ${LIBRARY_NAME}) +generate_target_and_root_library(${LIBRARY_NAME} LINKDEF ${LIBRARY_NAME}LinkDef.h SRCS ${SRCS} DEPS_PUBLIC ${DEPENDENCIES}) +``` + +ROOT dictionary generation requires a `*LinkDef.h` file listing every class that needs ROOT reflection. Every class with `ClassDef` in its header must appear in the LinkDef. + +**LinkDef streamer suffix** — the suffix after the class name controls whether ROOT generates a full I/O streamer: + +- `ClassName +;` — generates a full streamer. Use this **only** for classes that are written to a ROOT file (i.e. stored as a branch in a `TClonesArray` or `TTree`). Examples: `AtHit`, `AtEvent`, `AtRawEvent`, `AtMCPoint`. +- `ClassName -!;` — registers the class for reflection (usable in interpreted macros, usable as a pointer type) but **suppresses the streamer**. Use this for every class that is never written to disk: tasks, algorithms, models, samplers, etc. Examples: `AtELossModel`, `AtSpaceChargeModel`, `AtSample` subclasses. + +Generating an unnecessary streamer bloats the dictionary and binary with unused I/O code, so the default should be `-!` unless disk persistence is actually required. + +**C++ vs ROOT typedefs** — use plain C++ types (`bool`, `int`, `double`, `std::string`) in all classes that are not written to a ROOT file. Only use ROOT's portability typedefs (`Bool_t`, `Int_t`, `Double_t`, etc.) in classes that are persisted to disk, where ROOT's cross-platform I/O guarantees matter. Mixing ROOT types into purely algorithmic or task classes is unnecessary overhead. + +### Unit Tests + +Tests use Google Test, placed alongside source files (e.g., `AtVertexPropagatorTest.cxx` in `AtSimulationData/`). Register them in the module's `CMakeLists.txt` via `attpcroot_generate_tests()`. Tests must not access external files or network resources. + +### Macros + +ROOT macros (`.C` files) in `macro/` are the primary user interface for running simulations and analyses. They are not compiled into libraries—they run interpreted by ROOT. Integration tests live in `macro/tests/`. + +## Contributing + +- PRs must target the `develop` branch and apply cleanly (fast-forward, no merge commits). +- Commit messages: present imperative mood, ≤72 characters summary. +- All PRs are checked by `clang-format`, `clang-tidy`, and the unit test suite. From 5ebb79b5d91eb9ca815a4dd4cf0a4b2c6a55df64 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Anthony Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2026 12:38:21 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 2/7] Add AtELossBetheBloch analytic energy loss model MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Implements the Bethe-Bloch stopping power formula as a new AtELossModel subclass supporting heavy charged particles (PDG 2022, Eq. 34.1) and electrons (Leo 1994, Eq. 2.38). A tk::spline cache of dx/dE enables O(log n) range integrals. Newton's method is used for GetEnergy, matching the AtELossTable strategy. Straggling uses the Bohr approximation. Low-energy breakdown of the formula is handled by extrapolating dEdx ∝ sqrt(E) below the validity threshold. Includes 8 unit tests (proton/alpha/pion/electron in H2 and Ar, self-consistency, straggling sanity, Bloch approximation) and a ROOT macro to plot proton stopping power in Al for visual comparison against the PDG reference curve.

SetMaterial now calls BuildSpline at the end (removing the redundant explicit call from the constructor). SetI is moved from an inline header one-liner to a proper definition that rebuilds the spline. SetDensity overrides the base class virtual and rebuilds the spline after updating fDensity. Adds SettersRebuildSpline test to verify each setter takes effect immediately without a manual BuildSpline call.
