 # Mask: Monte cArlo Simulation of Kinematics
-
 Mask is a Monte Carlo simulation of reaction kinematics for use detector systems at Florida State University.
 Mask is capable of simulating multi-step kinematic reaction-decay sequences, storing data in ROOT Trees, after which the kinematic data can be fed to a detector geometry for efficiency testing. Currently geometries for ANASEN and SABRE are included in the code.
 
 ## Building Mask

 ## Using the detector geometry simulation
-
 Detector geometry is encoded using ROOT math libraries in the `src/Detectors` folder. Two different detector geometries are already present: SPS-SABRE and ANASEN. To add a new geometry, follow the guidelines outlined by each of these cases.
 
 To choose which detector scheme is run, modify the main function in `src/Detectors/main.cpp`. The included geometries also have options to do an internal geometry consistency check and print out coordinates for drawing the detector arrays, which can be useful for testing.

 ## Data visualization
-
 All data is saved as ROOT trees of std::vectors of Mask::Nucleus classes. To enable this, a ROOT dictionary is generated and linked into a shared library found in the `lib` directory of the repository. This allows the user to link to the shared library for accessing and analyzing the data generated by Mask.
