EvtGen project in ATLAS

Track: Event processing applications
The project “EvtGen in ATLAS” has the aim of accommodating EvtGen into the LHC- ATLAS context. As such it comprises both physics and software aspects of the development. ATLAS has developed interfaces to enable the use of EvtGen within the experiment's object-oriented simulation and data-handling framework ATHENA, and furthermore has enabled the running of the software on the LCG. Modifications have been made to meet the requirements of simulating beauty events centrally produced in proton proton collisions, with which ATLAS is primarily concerned. Here we review the programme of work including both software and physics related activities. The results of validation simulations are shown, and future plans are discussed.
