dRICH large sensor for focal point region studies

Open cpecar opened this issue 2 years ago • 9 comments

Briefly, what does this PR introduce?

Adds two new optics debugging mode for dRICH: 4 - creates large photosensor instead of default dRICH sensors, designed to catch all possible reflected photons. This is currently used with test 12 / 14 in drich-devs, throwing parallel beams of photons in order to determine the focal region of the dRICH optics. 5 - from a local text file, creates representations of the calculated focal points from mode 4 and a script in drich-devs, and also creates default dRICH sensors to visually compare calculated focal point to sensor position.

Looks good to me. Where should we store your code to calculate the focal points? Here or in drich-dev?

The focal point determination script is already in drich-dev (PR #55 in drich-dev), so I would say there makes more sense.

@cpecar I updated this branch w.r.t. main and resolved conflicts (hopefully correctly).

@cpecar @c-dilks What is the status on this PR? Do we want to complete this before end of March to include in campaign?

This isn't needed for the campaign; it supports an ongoing study for sensor placement optimization.

@cpecar there are still some review comments to resolve.

Is this branch still under development? Can you rebase, fix merge conflicts, and comment when it's ready?

Adding @chchatte92. Can you pick this up if needed, or close if not needed?

Sorry, I should have finished this a while ago and the PR has fallen behind a a good bit in terms of how the sensors are now defined. I’ll wait for word from Chandra on if this would still be a useful feature and if so I’ll bring it up to date and finalize it.

@cpecar @chchatte92 We are tagging a new release for February simulation campaign? What's the status of this PR? Is it supposed to be merged or no?
