The ATLAS detector is a general purpose experiment which will study frontier physics by observing the collisions of two proton beams. It is presently under construction at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. Its instrumentation will cover a volume of about 22800 m around the interaction point. The simulation software is foreseen to be in use for more than 15 years and it must be, during this long period...
The simulation program for the ATLAS experiment at CERN is currently in a full operational mode and integrated into the ATLAS's common analysis framework, ATHENA. The OO approach, based on GEANT4, and in use during the DC2 data challenge has been interfaced within ATHENA and to GEANT4 using the LCG dictionaries and Python scripting. The robustness of the application was proved during the DC2 data...
