All analysis manipulations (histo booking, filling, saving histos in a file, etc...) are located in one class : HistoManager. Please install ROOT before building this example: http://root.cern.ch The example is an adaptation of examples/novice/N03. It describes a simple sampling calorimeter setup. 1- Detector description ----------------------- The calorimeter is a box made of a given number of layers. A layer consists of an absorber plate and of a detection gap. The layer is replicated. Six parameters define the calorimeter : - the material of the absorber, - the thickness of an absorber plate, - the material of the detection gap, - the thickness of a gap, - the number of layers, - the transverse size of the calorimeter (the input face is a square). The default geometry is constructed in DetectorConstruction class, but all of the above parameters can be modified interactively via the commands defined in the DetectorMessenger class. |<----layer 0---------->|<----layer 1---------->|<----layer 2---------->| | | | | ========================================================================== || | || | || | || || | || | || | || || absorber | gap || absorber | gap || absorber | gap || || | || | || | || || | || | || | || beam || | || | || | || ======> || | || | || | || || | || | || | || || | || | || | || || | || | || | || || | || | || | || || | || | || | || ========================================================================== 2- An event : PrimaryGeneratorAction ------------------------------------ The primary kinematic consists of a single particle which hits the calorimeter 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. 3- Histograms ------------- To produce histograms, ROOT system must be installed AnaEx02 can produce 4 histograms : histo 1 : total energy deposit in absorber per event histo 2 : total energy deposit in gap per event histo 3 : total track length of charged particles in absorber per event histo 4 : total track length of charged particles in gap per event And 1 Ntuple : one row per event : EnergyAbs EnergyGap TrackLAbs TrackLGap These histos are booked in HistoManager and filled from EventAction. One can control the name of the histograms file : default name : AnaEx02 format : root See HistoManager constructor
