During January 2025, Michael Graham developed a configurable electron energy feature for the LDMX-Software/ldmx-sw repository, focusing on enhancing physics simulation workflows. He implemented a new Python function, single_e_beam_pipe, within generators.py, allowing users to set particle gun energies upstream of the tagger tracker. This addition enabled controlled off-energy beam electron studies, supporting more versatile and reproducible simulation scenarios. By tightly integrating the feature with the existing generator workflow, Michael improved experimental design and data quality. His work demonstrated depth in both software development and physics simulation, addressing a specific need for targeted beam configuration without introducing new bugs during the period.

January 2025: Delivered a configurable electron energy option upstream of the tagger tracker, enabling targeted off-energy beam electron studies and improving simulation versatility in LDMX Software (ldmx-sw). No major bugs fixed this month. The work strengthens experimental design, reproducibility, and data quality through a new configurable beam option and tighter integration with the generator workflow.
