The various steps are also components within corresponding Monte-Carlo simulations. They are usually considered to occur in an instant and displayed in MC simulations as intricate paths hard-coded with the HepMC format. We recently developed a framework to convert HEP event records into online 3D animations, aiming for visual Monte-Carlo studies and science popularization, where the most difficult parts are about designing an event timeline and particles' movement. As a by-product, we propose here an event-time-frame format for animation data exchanging and persistence, which is potentially helpful in other visualization works.
