acidbourbon/mdc_3d_garfield repository overview

⁠what is this

This container is derived from rootproject/root-ubuntu16:6.10

it provides a stable software ecosystem for the configuration / simulation / analysis root macros and shell scripts from the following software repository: https://github.com/acidbourbon/mdc_3d_garfield⁠ in combination by garfield, a gas detector simulation application, developed at CERN (http://cern.ch/garfield⁠)

• root macros are used to generate monte carlo data (tracks) that are fed into garfield9 (the fortran version)
• the results of the electron drift calculations are written to ascii files
• the ascii files are then parsed by root and the data is stored in a root file

⁠how to use

-- go someplace nice, if you like, make some directories for data input and output mkdir in out -- start the container, mount the above directories as /in/ and /out/, enter an interactive session docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/in:/in -v $(pwd)/out:/out acidbourbon/mdc_3d_garfield /bin/bash ( inside docker ) cd /mdc_3d_garfield/ git pull origin master

--go wild on the scripts and enjoy the data :)
