+ * This file can be used on Monte Carlo and excludes pile up. This makes
+ * it useful to study sampling fractions and energy resolution when firing single
+ * energy particles at the detector. This file takes the geant4 energy deposition,
+ * and converts it to uits of FADC using the pulse integral value and gain (amplitude).
+ * The amplitude can include noise if desired. This value is then compared to the 
+ * readout/trigger thresholds in FADC. Finally,this value is converted back into GeV 
+ * energy output which can be used for clustering, etc. 
+ *
