And please add the following sentence to your acknowledgement section:
We are grateful to the ARA Collaboration for making available the AraSim simulation program used in this work.
And provide the link to this repository (https://github.com/ara-software/AraSim) in your paper, e.g. as a footnote or reference.
- ROOT -- ROOT 6 is preferred
- Boost -- Greater than 1.71 required; necessary for ray tracing and interpolation
- FFTW -- required for FFTs
- libRootFftwWrapper -- a ROOT wrapper for FFTW 3 downloadable from Ryan Nichol's GitHub, with documentation here
-
Install all dependencies, and ensure the libraries and headers are appropariately included in e.g. your
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
. -
Checkout the code from the ARA Git repository, eg.:
git clone https://github.com/ara-software/AraSim.git
-
Run
make
