GFLASH Example
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
This examples demonstrates the use of the GFLASH parameterisation library.
|
|
It uses the GFLASH equations (hep-ex/0001020, Grindhammer & Peters)
|
|
to parametrise electromagnetic showers in matter.
|
|
In this example the calorimeter is a simple cube,
|
|
which consists of 10 x 10 crystals of PbWO4 (CMS like).
|
|
The Geant4 shower framework is used (see also extended/parameterisation/Par01 example).
|
|
|
|
Geometry, sensitive detector and hits are defined respectively in:
|
|
ExGflashDetectorConstruction
|
|
ExGflashSensitiveDetector
|
|
ExGflashHit
|
|
|
|
Briefly, whenever a e-/e+ enters the calorimeter, it is parametrised if it
|
|
has a minimum energy and the shower is expected to be contained
|
|
in the calorimeter(so called " parameterisation envelope").
|
|
If this is fullfilled the particle is killed, as well as all secondaries,
|
|
and the energy is deposited according to the GFLASH equations.
|
|
|
|
The example shows how to interface GFLASH to your application.
|
|
The simulation time is measured, so the user can see immiadiatly
|
|
the speed up by using GFLASH.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use GFLASH the user has to implement the following:
|
|
|
|
o ExGflashDetectorConstruction :
|
|
Here GFLASH has to be initialized and assigend to the envelope,
|
|
where it should be active (here our calorimeter = fCalo_log )
|

G4cout << "Creating shower parameterization models" << G4endl;
|
|
fFastShowerModel = new GFlashShowerModel("fFastShowerModel", fRegion);
|
|
fParameterisation = new GFlashHomoShowerParameterisation(pbWO4);
|
|
fFastShowerModel->SetParameterisation(*fParameterisation);
|
|
fParticleBounds = new GFlashParticleBounds();
|
|
fFastShowerModel->SetParticleBounds(*fParticleBounds);
|
|
fHitMaker = new GFlashHitMaker();
|
|
fFastShowerModel->SetHitMaker(*fHitMaker);
|
|
G4cout<<"end shower parameterization."<<G4endl;
|
|
|
|
o ExGflashSensitiveDetector:
|
|
It is mandatory to use G4VGFlashSensitiveDetector as (additional)
|
|
base class for the sensitive detector.
|
|
Here it is necessary to implement a seperate
|
|
interface, where the GFlash spots are processed.
|
|
(ProcessHits(G4GFlashSpot*aSpot ,G4TouchableHistory* ROhist))
|
|
The separate interface is used, because the GFLASH spots contains
|
|
(naturally) less information than the full simulation.
|
|
|
|
Note: Instead of particle gun the gps class is used here for
|
|
particle generation.
