Beam Simulation at COMPASS
• Beam Simulation package should generate vertices and beam vector
• 5-dimensional distribution in [ vx, vy, bx, by, bz ](z: beam direction, y: up)
• Complex correlations between all 5 variables→ Impossible to do
analytically

Idea• Use real events for beam simulation
→ [x, y, px, py, pz] from every event → Beamfile
Problem• Need more Monte Carlo than real data events
→ The same vertex/beam is used several times
Proposal• Smear events• Use mean distance between two events as sigma for
the smearing (different for every event!)

Defining the Mean Distance
• Basic idea:– Divide the 5d distribution into bins of equal content– For every bin, calculate the mean volume per event– The 5 mean distances will be the edge lengths of the
hypercuboid with the same edge ratios as the bin itself, and a volume that is equal to the mean volume per event
mean distance ≙ “sigma”

Edge Bins are a Problem• Single event can artificially
enlarge bin
• Average over all neighboring bins which are not on the edge
• But: in 5d, most bins are on the edge• Even worse: most of them have only neighbors which
are also on the edge
Solution: use sigmas from neighboring bins

What if there are only edge bins?
1. For every event…
2. Find a hypersphere containing 15 events around it
3. Calculate the CoG and find a new sphere containing all events
4. Use the volume of the sphere to calculate the mean volume per event

Post Processing
• Sphere-procedure still produces big sigmas, cap them by hand
• Binning introduces artifacts: The bin boundary of the first division goes through the whole volume
Solution:• Produce 5 beamfiles, starting binning with a different
coordinate each time• For every coordinate, take the sigmas from the beamfile
where the coordinate was divided last and merge them to form one beamfile

Conclusion
• A new beam simulation package was developed and tested
• The vertex and beam distributions of generated events reproduce the data reasonably well
• First test with physics analyses have been started
