1. INPUT - THE ACME CONFIG FILE

The ACME config file is easily grasped, basically depends on item-data pairs. An example config file should be included with the source code. Anything following "//" is discarded as a comment. Config Options are described in detail in another document.

2. INTERMEDIATE OUTPUT - ACME OUTPUT

The output of ACME is also pretty simple, and occurs in the functions Photon::put(), Lepton::put() and WriteStack().

The filename is defined by the OutputFile config parameter.

The output is one particle per line, with a first comment line (// comment)
Each line then consists of the fields

• name id energy zenith azimuth height
• name: debug-friendly name (eg "Photon_0")
• id: GEANT particle code as used in SENECA
• energy: energy in eV
• zenith: in rad
• azimuth: in rad
• height: in m above mean sea level (ellipsoid)
