BGV SW Digitization

LHCb SciFi digitization

• Effects related to the signal acquisition (to be implemented in the BGV simulation/digitization): light yield and attenuation, geometric coupling of fibers and SiPM cells, SiPM gain, thermal noise, noise from afterpulses and spillover

BGV digitization

• Detailed description given of the various elements of the BGV digitization. We follow the approach used by the LHCb sub-detectors. Some of the info here might be superseded by later developments
• For a description and instructions for use see: slides
• Initial estimate of the event size: slides
• Visualization of SciFiClusters in Panoramix: slides
• Association to MC truth: slides
• Selection of "reconstructible" MCParticles and "good" Events: slides

Latest ("production") version

• First version of the full digitisation, see these slides
