Selex Database

The E781 database called OCS (Open Constant System) is being worked on by Peter Cooper, Philippe Gouffon, and Mike Procario. Some far a requirements document has been written. This specifies what the database has to be able to do without specifing how it would do it.

OCS - The E781 Open Constant System. Manual. by V. Rud.

In order to facilitate the development of the database, a new detector naming scheme has been proposed. This scheme is designed to be maximally compatible with OCS and to have greater mnemonic value than the H460 names. Click here to see.

ADAMO to OCS Conversion

The current version of the database in the Monte Carlo uses ADAMO. We need to convert this to OCS, which is our standard database system. Instructions on how to use Slava Rud's conversion utilities are available.
