Goals Simulations of detectors in high energy experiments and low energy experiments provide an overview of particle and radiation transport simulation as used in other application areas. It also enables advanced use of detailed simulation, as recent years have seen significant growth in the availability of large networked computing power and particle transport tools with increasing precision in experiments.
Course Content Overview of Detector Simulation, Usage of Detector Simulation, Simulation Types and Stages, Event Generation Tools, Detector Simulation, Components of Detector Simulation.
Learning Outcomes 1) Gains a general perspective on detector simulation.
2) Have knowledge about simulation stages and their types.
3) Learns the calculation time and simulation level.
