Now, the viewer should be filled with event information.

This is the event view. (Notice that Event is select in the lefthand menu.)

The LCIO Event Header section shows the information from the LCIO event header, including run and event numbers, the time stamp, and the name of the simulated detector.

The Blocks (basically meaning "Collections") area shows the data collections within this event. For simulated event files, these collections will usually consist of the Monte Carlo Particles (MCParticles) from the physics event, hits in the calorimeter systems (CalorimeterHit), and the hits from the trackers (TrackerHit).

Info

The LCSim Event Viewer can also show reconstruction objects, such as clusters and tracks, but this tutorial will focus on the simulation classes mentioned previously, e.g. hits and tracks.
