Add material visualization for TileCal

Merged Riccardo Maria Bianchi requested to merge gmex-add-tile-materials into master
All threads resolved!

This MR adds the materials used for Tile in rel.22 to gmexMatVisAttributes.json. With these additions, Tile geometry is visualized as in VP11.

Before the extra definitions:

After the extra definitions introduced with this MR, where 7 materials have been declared:

Screen_Shot_2021-09-23_at_00.19.35

The newly defined materials are:

  • std::Air
  • std::Iron
  • std::Aluminium
  • tile::SiO2CondEpox
  • tile::Glue
  • tile::Scintillator
  • LArServices

I left out the definition of LArIronBox because I didn't want to make it look like std::Iron. We can choose a color for it later.


Note:

At a later stage, we need to decouple the experiment-specific material names/definitions to additional files, which the user can specify when launching gmex.

[Probably, the files containing the ATLAS materials could be stored in the GeoModelATLAS or GeoModelDATA repositories. To be discussed]


Footnotes:

  1. (Almost identical to VP1: I found, in fact, that in VP1 the scintillator is colored as greenish, while for the moment I only found a definition for a blueish "Scintillator" color; but, nevertheless, the material is visualized differently than the surrounding volumes, which is the important thing so far) :leftwards_arrow_with_hook:
