General

UR 1.1 Configure the run management UR 1.2 Configure the event loop UR 1.3 Configure the event generator UR 1.4 Configure the visualization management UR 1.5 Conficure the analysis management Description of the experimental set-up

UR 2.1 Describe the geometry of a simple target in a test-beam set-up UR 2.2 Describe the geometry of a geological sample in a test-beam set-up UR 2.3 Describe the geometry of a test beam detector set-up UR 2.4 Describe the material of a simple target UR 2.5 Describe the material composition of geological samples of known components UR 2.6 Describe the characteristics of the detector response (efficiency, response function)

Primary Event Generation

UR 3.1 Generate events from a particle beam, specifying particle type, energy, direction, energy sectrum and beam spot size UR 3.2 Generate events from a unidirectional distribution, either mono-directional or isotropic.

Physics processes

UR 4.1 Generate electromagnetic physics processes (including fluorescence) of both the incident and secondary particles in the target, with incident particles being eitherto the test beams defined in UR 3.1 or to the components of the space radiation environment model defined in UR 3.2. UR 4.2 Generate electromagnetic physics processes in the detection set-up. UR 4.3 Generate hadronic physics processes in the detection set-up UR 4.4 generate hadronic physics processes in the target, with incident particles being eitherto the test beams defined in UR 3.1 or to the components of the space radiation environment model defined in UR 3.2.

Facilities

UR 5.1 Visualise the geometrical set-up UR 5.2 Visualise tracks UR 5.3 Visualise hits UR 5.4 Save a simulation output at the hits level UR 5.5 Select the type of experimental set-up interactively UR 5.6 Modify the parameters of the experimental set-up interactively UR 5.7 Select the type of primary event generator interactively UR 5.8 Modify the parameters of the primary event generator interactively UR 5.9 Modify the production thresholds of physics processes interactively

Analysis

UR 6.1 Produce histograms of relevant physical and experimental quantities resulting from the simulation UR 6.2 Produce ntuples of relevant physical and experimental quantities resulting from the simulation UR 6.3 compare simulation results to experimental data

Platforms

UR 7.1 Run on a PC under Linux OS UR 7.2 Visualisation and histogram outputs should be visible from Unix and Windows platforms
