+# File:    genie_beam_settings.fcl
+# Purpose: GENIE event generator settings for BNB neutrino interactions
+# Author:  Gianluca Petrillo (petrillo@slac.stanford.edu)
+# Date:    December 4, 2024
+# Version: 1.0
+# 
+# This file includes configurations for the beam time structure (in GenieHelper
+# format) and for the `GENIEGen` LArSoft module interface to GENIE generator.
+#
+# A "default" configuration is provided which is supposed to be the current one,
+# and others can be added for variations or as legacy or period-specific
+# configurations.
+#
+# A template for an actual GENIEGen configuration is:
+#     
+#     physics.producers.generator: {
+#       @table::sbn_genie_BNB_base  # from genie_beam_settings.fcl
+#       
+#       # flux configuration
+#       [...]
+#       
+#       TopVolume: [...]
+#       
+#     }
+#     
+#
+# Changes
+# --------
+# 
+# 20241204 (petrillo@slac.stanford.edu) [v1.0]

+#
+# Explanation of the SpillTimeConfig configuration parameter
+# -----------------------------------------------------------
+# 
+# This documentation reflects the configuration string of
+# `evgb::EvtTimeFNALBeam` class in `nugen` `v1_00_01` (`nutools` `v3_02_00`).
+# It is parsed by `evgb::EvtTimeFNALBeam::Config()` (the first word,
+# representing the name of the algorithm, is stripped by the caller,
+# `evgb::GENIEHelper`).
+# The configuration string is, well, a single string, sequence of
+# case-insensitive words separated by blanks (space, tabulation or new line)
+# or selected punctuation (comma, equal sign and more).
+# Parameters are parsed in sequence and the latter overrides the previous.
+# Parameters may appear in any order, except for the algorithm name which must
+# be the first.
+# 
+# * `evgb::EvtTimeFNALBeam`: the algorithm name; `evgb::EvtTimeFNALBeam`
+#     describes a beam spill structured in a contiguous sequence of "batches",
+#     each one with a substructure of "buckets". Some batches can be "disabled",
+#     and some of the buckets at the end of each batch may be empty.
+#     Each bucket has a Gaussian time distribution. See the content of
+#     `nugen/EventGeneratorBase/GENIE/EvtTime*.h` for other possible algorithms.
+# * `intentsity <INT 1> <INT 2> ...  <INT M>` describes the relative intensity
+#     of the batches in the spill, and at the same time it defines the number
+#     _M_ of batches in the spill. A standard setting is to have all the batches
+#     (6 for NuMI, just 1 for BnB) set to `1.0`; `GENIEHelper` will take care of
+#     normalizing the numbers to a sum of 1.
+# * `sigma` or `FWHM` [ns]: the RMS or full width at half maximum peak of the
+#     time structure of a single bucket. The time distribution is always
+#     Gaussian (if specified as FWHM, it is converted to RMS for a Gaussian
+#     distribution).
+# * `dtbucket` [ns]: the time between the peak of two consecutive buckets.
+#     The default value (18.83 ns) assumes an extraction rate of 53.103 MHz,
+#     which is NuMI; BNB is 52.8 MHz.
+# * `nperbatch`, `nfilled`: the number of buckets in each spill, and the number
+#     of those which have actual protons in them. The default values include
+#     84 buckets, of which 81 are filled and the remaining 3, always at the end
+#     of the spill ("notch") are empty.
+# * `global` [ns]: offset of the start of the spill (i.e. the time of the peak
+#     of the first bucket of the first batch) with respect to the start
+#     of the generator time scale (see `detinfo::DetectorClocks`).
+# * `Booster`, `NuMI`: presets including all the above in hard-coded fashion;
+#     avoid using these to have better control and awareness of the settings.
