Abstract

The next generation of neutrino oscillation measurements will come from the Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) in 2022, and requires simulations of the neutrino interactions using Liquid Argon Software (LArSoft) prior to construction. LArSoft is written in C++ and uses Root for liquid argon experiments at Fermilab. As an initial step of involvement for the department, I established a copy of LArSoft on a local server, which required knowledge of Root files and proficiency at coding in a bash in Linux. With the local copy of LArSoft installed, future students have the tools necessary to run simulations of neutrino interactions in a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC).
