4:00 PM → 4:15 PM Introduction

Speaker: Ralf Ulrich (KIT)

4:15 PM → 4:50 PM Discussion

Feedback from ICRC.

Current code reviews:
- "transparent" observation plane
- simplified QuantityVector::GetX/Y/Z
- vertical EAS: close this branch, how to conserve?

Proposals for the process class hierarchy and refactoring of the ProcessSequence. This is strongly related to

• Issue #224: Change main loop from processing one particle of the stack to N particles on the stack
• MR !158: WIP: simplified process sequence based on std::tuple
• https://gitlab.ikp.kit.edu/AirShowerPhysics/corsika/wikis/Requirement-list-for-ProcessSequences

PLEASE read and comment. We will need to implement this now.

Speaker: Hans Dembinski (Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics, Heidelberg)
