The SuperB experiment needs large samples of Monte-Carlo simulated events in order to finalize the detector design and to estimate the data analysis performances. This work describes the system we developed to manage the production of the required simulated events in a fully distributed environment. The distributed infrastructure includes several sites in Europe and North America and is based on Grid...
We present the technology proposed for the super B muon system. The detector is based on MINOS style extruded scintillator coupled to wavelength shifting fibers. The light readout is done by means of Silicon Photomultiplier devices. We report our R&D results about charge spectra and time resolution for different readout configuration; setup optimization and experimental issues are also discussed...
High Energy Physics experiments need a huge amount of Monte Carlo Simulated events. Currently, Grid computing infrastructures are widely used for the distributed execution of this kind of CPU consuming jobs. To locate and retrieve files spread over the grid, an efficient tool to query and discover information about their content (metadata) is needed. AMGA is a Metadata Catalog Service, which is part...
SuperB is an international enterprise aiming at the construction of a very high luminosity asymmetric e+e- flavor factory. SuperB will be a partner, together with the LHC and eventually the ILC, in searching for new physics. Since the first steps of detector design, the load of computing issues in terms of Monte Carlo algorithm execution requires the exploitation of resources in a full distributed...
