|
||||
|
||||
This example simulates a simplified fixe target experiment.
|
||||
Read \link ExampleParN02 Example ParN02 \endlink for a description
|
||||
of how to run it in parallel.
|
||||
|
||||
\section ExampleN02InParN02_s1 GEOMETRY DEFINITION
|
||||
|
||||
The setup consists of a target followed by six chambers of increasing
|
||||
transverse size. These chambers are located in a region called Tracker
|
||||
region. Their shape are boxes, constructed as parametrised volumes
|
||||
(ChamberParametrisation class).
|
||||
|
||||
The default geometry is constructed in DetectorConstruction class.
|
||||
One can change the material of the target and of the chambers
|
||||
interactively via the commands defined in the DetectorMessenger class.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition a transverse uniform magnetic field can be applied (see
|
||||
N02MagneticField and DetectorMessenger classes).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\section ExampleN02InParN02_s2 PHYSICS LIST
|
||||
|
||||
The particle's type and the physic processes which will be available
|
||||
in this example are set in PhysicsList class.
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, all the so called 'electromagnetic processes' are
|
||||
introduced for gamma, charged leptons, and charged hadrons (see the
|
||||
method PhysicsList::ConstructEM()).
|
||||
|
||||
An important data member of this class is the defaultCutValue which
|
||||
defines the production threshold of secondary particles
|
||||
(mainly Ionisation and Bremsstrahlung processes are concerned by this
|
||||
CutValue).
|
||||
Notice that the CutValue must be given in unit of length, corresponding
|
||||
to the stopping range of the particle. It is automatically converted
|
||||
in energy for each material, and a table is printed in the method
|
||||
PhysicsList::SetCuts()
|
||||
|
||||
In addition the build-in interactive command:
|
||||
\verbatim
|
||||
/process/(in)activate processName
|
||||
\endverbatim
|
||||
allows to activate/inactivate the processes one by one.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\section ExampleN02InParN02_s3 RUNS and EVENTS
|
||||
|
||||
The primary kinematic consists of a single particle which hits the
|
||||
target perpendicular to the input face. The type of the particle
|
||||
and its energy are set in the PrimaryGeneratorAction class, and can
|
||||
be changed via the G4 build-in commands of ParticleGun class.
|
||||
|
||||
A RUN is a set of events.
|
||||
|
||||
The user has control:
|
||||
-at Begin and End of each run (class RunAction)
|
||||
-at Begin and End of each event (class EventAction)
|
||||
-at Begin and End of each track (class TrackingAction, not used here)
|
||||
-at End of each step (class SteppingAction)
|
||||
|
||||
The class SteppingVerbose prints some informations step per step,
|
||||
under the control of the command: /tracking/verbose 1
|
||||
It inherits from G4SteppingVerbose, and has been setup here in order
|
||||
to illustrate how to extract informations from the G4 kernel during
|
||||
the tracking of a particle.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\section ExampleN02InParN02_s4 DETECTOR RESPONSE
|
||||
|
||||
A HIT is a record, track per track (even step per step), of all the
|
||||
informations needed to simulate and analyse the detector response.
|
||||
|
||||
In this example the Tracker chambers are considered as the detector.
|
||||
Therefore the chambers are declared 'sensitive detectors' (SD) in
|
||||
the DetectorConstruction class.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, a Hit is defined as a set of 4 informations per step, inside
|
||||
the chambers, namely:
|
||||
- the track identifier (an integer),
|
||||
- the chamber number,
|
||||
- the total energy deposit in this step,
|
||||
- the position of the deposit.
|
||||
|
||||
A given hit is an instance of the class TrackerHit which is created
|
||||
during the tracking of a particle, step by step, in the method
|
||||
TrackerSD::ProcessHits(). This hit is inserted in a HitsCollection.
|
||||
|
||||
The HitsCollection is printed at the end of event (via the method
|
||||
TrackerSD::EndOfEvent()), under the control of the command: /hits/verbose 1
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\section ExampleN02InParN02_s5 VISUALIZATION
|
||||
|
||||
The Visualization Manager is set in the main () (see exampleN02.cc).
|
||||
The initialisation of the drawing is done via a set of /vis/ commands
|
||||
in the macro vis.mac. This macro is automatically read from
|
||||
the main when running in interactive mode.
|
||||
|
||||
The tracks are automatically drawn at the end of event and erased at
|
||||
the beginning of the next run.
|
||||
|
||||
The visualization (with OpenGL driver) assumes two things:
|
||||
1- the visualisation & interfaces categories have been compiled
|
||||
with the environment variable G4VIS_BUILD_OPENGLX_DRIVER.
|
||||
2- ParN02.cc has been compiled with G4VIS_USE_OPENGLX.
|
||||
|
||||
(The same with DAWNFILE instead of OPENGLX)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\section ExampleN02InParN02_s6 USER INTERFACES
|
||||
|
||||
The default command interface, called G4UIterminal, is done via
|
||||
standart cin/G4cout.
|
||||
On Linux and Sun-cc on can use a smarter command interface G4UItcsh.
|
||||
It is enough to set the environment variable G4UI_USE_TCSH before
|
||||
compiling ParN02.cc
