Introduction-PhysicsProjects Experience with Richmondcluster, offsite users. Simulationsfor CLAS12 neutron magnetic form factor GMn experiment (E12-07-104). Quasielastic neutron detection from 2H with forwardTime-of-Flight(TOF) (CN2011-015). Calorimeter(EC) simulation(CN2011-019). ECgeometry simulation (BAPS, DNP, 2012). GMn target simulation (BAPS, DNP, 2011). CLAS12TOFSubsystemsReconstructionSoftware Forward andcentralTOFs. Testedwithgemc. Deep-inelasticscatteringeventgenerator.
