    Abstract

    The code package CALOR, used for prediction of calorimeter performance, has for decades been a loosely coupled system of the three stand-alone particle transport codes HETC; for high-energy meson and hadron particles, MORSE; for neutrons below 20 MeV, and EGS4; for electron, positron, muon and photon transport. These codes are being forged to a unified code, with the backbone of a single secondary particle bank. Internal scoring routines are being integrated. Furthermore, interfaces are being implemented for plugging in other event generator modules and for plugging in CALOR as a particle transport engine into other code systems. This paper will report on the progress of the effort.
