The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) Yellow Report specified parameters for the
general-purpose detector that can deliver the scientific goals delineated by
the EIC White Paper and NAS report. These parameters dictate the tracking
momentum resolution, secondary-vertex resolutions, calorimeter energy
resolutions, as well as $π/K/p$ ID. We have incorporated these parameters
into a configuration card for Delphes, which is a widely used "C++ framework,
for performing a fast multipurpose detector response simulation". We include
both the 1.5 T and 3.0 T scenarios. We also show the expected performance for
high-level quantities such as jets, missing transverse energy, charm tagging,
and others. These parametrizations can be easily updated with more refined
Geant4 studies, which provides an efficient way to perform simulations to
benchmark a variety of observables using state-of-the art event generators such
as Pythia8.
