6| 16 August 2009: release Version1.8 |
7 \-----------------------------------------/
8* Changes relative to V.1.7b
9 - LHE files were not processed correctly (empty Analysis/Trigger trees).
10 Now LHEFParticle derives from TRootC::GenParticle as it should.
11 - additional data in the logfile : run date/hour + all names of used input files
12 (input event files, detector card, trigger card, beam files, particle table)
13 - bug fix: it is now possible to read "delphes root files" as an input for Delphes (GEN tree)
14 - bug fix: number of events to process is correct event if multiple files in the inputlist
15 - updates in Resolution.cpp & Resolution_ATLAS.cpp
16 - new method "invisible()" in PdgParticle, needed for invisible particles BSM
17 - new : calorimeter endcaps. DetectorCard have been updated; however, 100% backward compatible
18 - bug fix: btag was not properly working for (mis)tag efficiencies below 1%.
19 - bug fix: misplaced "#" character in the DetectorCard for ATLAS (calorimeter resolution).
20 - moving to ROOT::TRandom3 for random numbers

32 tower and not its lower edge in eta and in phi
33 - bug removed for compilation error with FROG (genMakefile) :
34 the options -Dmacos/-Dlinux/-Dwindows are automatically added
35 in CXXFLAGS when required

69 \-----------------------------------------/
70
71 * Changes relative to V.1.4beta:
72 - implementation of the energy flow
73 - calotowers are first merged then smeared
74 - photons are based on these calotowers: conservative approach
75 - electrons are separately smeared according to the calotower
76 resolution.
77 - new: list of calorimeters ; CaloUtil added
78 - new: constants moved from SmearUtil.* to D_Constants.*
79 - new: GenParticle class
80 - ParticleUtil changed into D_Particle
81 - tracks and Taujets have now a charge
82 - output available as a LHCO (text) data file, in option
83 - extensive test and correction of the Bfield
84 - using now an exact computation, assuming solenoidal field
85 - about 20% faster than iterative approach
86 - charged lepton isolation: IsolPt available
87 - data cards
88 - default names have been changed
89 - more parameters for more flexibility
90
91
92 /-----------------------------------------\
93| 09 February 2009: release Version1.4beta |
94 \-----------------------------------------/
95
96 * Changes relative to V.1.3beta:
97 - new overal header and program output to screen.
98 - new trigger cards ATLAS and CMS-like
99 - new detector card ATLAS oriented
100 - New input parameters in the datacard for very forward detectors
101 - Modification of the Resolution.cpp code to run on the output of Delphes directly
102 - #include statements have been cleaned ; more include paths
103 in the compilation, leading to easier #include statements.
104 - extensive use of 'valgrind' for the search for memory leaks.
105 No more explicit leak is in the code. The only leaks left are
106 related to ROOT, to mcfio dependecy and to Hector.
107 This implied the systematic addition of copy-constructor,
108 operator= and correct destructors in Delphes classes
109 - update of the BField simulation; still in the case of B = Bz only
110 - JetsUtil* files renamed to JetsUtil*
111 * Private modifications in dependencies
112 - memory leaks removed in FROG (applied on Frog v1.106)
113 - systematic change of by-value parameters to "by-const-reference"
114 in Hector (applied on Hector v1.3.1)
115
116 /-----------------------------------------\

118 \-----------------------------------------/
119
120 * Changes relative to V.1.2beta:
121 - Cleaning of non necessary comments
122 - Removal of the minimal transverse momentum applied on tracks and calotowers when the magnetic field is simulated
123 - Correction of the FROG interface
124 - Addition of a new standalone code to run FROG on the analysis output ROOT file
125 - New magnetic field algorithm: exact computation in case of magnetic field having a Bz component only
126 - Time performance monitoring
127 - Cleaner tarball
128 * Known limitations of this release are:
129 -Work is currently being done on eta/phi variables leading to some uncertainties on these quantities when the magnetic field is switched on

142 of generated particles
143 - Input datacard parameters now taken into account by
144 the jets, very forward detectors, magnetic field
145 propagation steps
