Update on the Software and Simulation for the Super Bigbite Spectrometer (SBS)

Super Bigbite Spectrometer (SBS) is a new set of common instruments currently being installed in Hall~A at Jefferson Lab. It consists of a large aperture magnet with a modular detector package combined together with another spectrometer (usually the BigBite spectrometer). The core physics program of SBS consists in the measurement of the nucleon form factors at large values of Q2, but also includes semi-inclusive DIS and tagged DIS. Such measurements have in common to require high luminosity, which, combined with the large solid angle and open geometry of the SBS apparatus, leads to particularly challenging experimental conditions (high trigger rates and large occupancies, especially in the GEM tracking detectors).

    

Overcoming those challenging experimental conditions requires cutting edge analysis algorithms. The development and test of such algorithms requires Monte Carlo simulations with a detailed detector response. The main purpose of such simulations is to prepare pseudodata samples to develop and test the analysis algorithms prior to the data taking.

In this talk I will review the simulation and software frameworks. I will also present the lastest developments and achievements made on SBS reconstruction algorithms with help the SBS software framework.
