MAUS User Documentation¶

MAUS usage is handled by several applications that enable basic usage of the framework. Each application runs several modules against a particular configuration. The particular modules that the application runs, and the configuration that is run against, can all be modified by the user.

Offline data access¶

Applications¶

There are several applications in the MAUS schema

Configuration manipulation¶

MAUS uses a set of user-modifiable files to control the application configuration. Variables such as input geometry, field arrangement and detector parameters can all be modified by the user.

• Documentation on geometry file generation is available in pdf or html format.
• Documentation on global run controls is available in html format.
• List of valid materials

Changing application modules¶

MAUS uses a modular structure in its applications. Uses can alter the modules which a particular application runs or define their own application. The different modules are listed in the Components section.

File IO¶

Data is passed between different parts of the framework in tree-like structured data files. The tree structure is described in the DataStructure section.
