An up to date description of the Fast Simulation status can be found here: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/SWGuideFastSimTags (this page is available from the Fast Simulation twiki page https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/SWGuideFastSimulation in the "Supported tags section" )
- General: Many changes to keep the synchronization with the Full Sim/Reco Many improvements as well
- Main changes and new features: New simulation of the HF Extended single hadron shower parameterization (up to 1TeV) Transition to Python Use HLT/confDB Realistic HCAL saturation implementation Pile-Up at 10 TeV is available Implementation of the multiple scattering for the muons from hits The standard collection names are used for the tracks (iterative tracking) 3.8 T magnetic field
- Major bug fixes: See the physics validation section of the twiki
