XLZD integration

Open sethrj opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

This is the primary tracking issue for integrating Celeritas with the simulation workflow for the next-generation XLZD experiment under development. The primary Celeritas contact points are the "assignees" to the right.

XLZD is being designed through 2030. A grand vision is to export directly from CAD rather than using CSG.

Core capabilities

  • [ ] Optical photon physics: #886
  • [ ] ORANGE for platform portability: #1167
  • [ ] Eventually: tesselated geometry: #1400

One of the XLZD simulation options can be found here: https://gitlab.com/XLZD-UK/xlzd-sandbox

Currently the geometry is constructed in G4 using either G4MultiUnion or G4DisplacedSolid and G4UnionSolid. The latter should be celeritas compatible.
