description The JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) experiment is a multi-purpose neutrino experiment designed to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy and precisely measure oscillation parameters. It will be composed of a 20k ton liquid scintillator (LS) central detector equipped with about 18000 20-inch photon-multipliers (PMTs) and 25000 3-inch PMTs, a water Cherenkov detector with about 2000 20-inch PMTs, and a top tracker. Monte-Carlo simulation is a fundamental tool for optimizing the detector design, tuning reconstruction algorithms, and performing physics study. The status of JUNO simulation software will be presented, including generator interface, detector geometry, physics processes, MC truth, pull-mode electronic simulation.
