ATLAS CTB (2004) Simulation with Geant4 |
ATLAS simulation with Geant4 - CTB (2004) simulation: progress
CTB_G4Sim progress by tag:
This page collects the progress on the Atlas CTB simulation with Geant4 (Athena) and follows this progress using the tags of the CTB_G4Sim package.
For a given tag CTB_G4Sim-00-YY-ZZ (and date) a functionality of a given package or feature from a specific sub-detector is considered "integrated" if the corresponding tag (for the package or sub-detector software) is available at the Atlas Tag-Collector and the nightly buildings by NICOS are successful.
The first CTB_G4Sim tag in this page corresponds to the incoming features and indeed not yet available. The different tags will be available at the end of the specified date.

17/05/05 --> CTB_G4Sim-00-02-32 - This tag is intended to be used mainly in the 10.0.x branch and you have to be sure that for a given release 10.0.1, 10.0.2 or 10.0.3 you have the following tags: 1) TileG4Calib-00-00-18 2) TRT_Digitization-00-04-15 3) G4AtlasApps-00-00-26 4) G4AtlasControl-00-00-18 5) LArG4TBSim-00-00-17 6) SCT_ConditionsAlgs-00-00-17 - Fix for the LAr digitization using the parabolic method. This is done here as a temporary fix with ../share/CTB-FIX1002-LArROD_G4_jobOptions.py - Corrected Muon stuff in CTB that breaks because MuonDetMgrDetDescrCnv are not longer used. - Added two runs to the CtbRunConditions.py. The list is now frozen

CTB_G4Sim-00-02-31
25/04/05
Note: this tag replaces the previous one for the grid production . To use it with 10.0.1 for simulation the following tags are needed: 1) TileG4Calib-00-00-18 2) TRT_Digitization-00-04-15 3) G4AtlasApps-00-00-26 4) G4AtlasControl-00-00-18 5) LArG4TBSim-00-00-07 - Correction for the MDT digitization (MDT_Digitizer. CheckSimHits = FALSE) to be used with 10.0.2 for the digitization of the events generated on the GRID - Changed the ctb_TileCal_Calib.mac for the Tile calibration simulation runs. Calibration for the LAr is now available within the new Python infrastructure Remember that "macro files" are not supported and all the production will be done using the Python infrastructure. The Tile calibration needs at least TileG4Calib-00-00-18 on top of 10.0.2 - Applied the regions-cuts for LAr, SCT and Muon system. This needs G4AtlasApps-00-00-26 and G4AtlasControl-00-00-18

SCT: --- - New digitization using ConDB TRT: ---- - The Y coordinate for TRT is -8 cm as it should be with the "InnerDetector-CTB-04" tag. This is correct since several tags. This is only a remark, and if other InnerDetector tags are used this must be checked. GENERAL: -------- - The name of the inner detector MBPS1 was changed to MBPSID as a requirement of the inner detector people. - The gap in Z of MBPSID magnet was changed from 220 mm to 230 mm. - The position of MBPS2 magnet was changed from 44301 mm to 45299 mm. - Beampipes: name changed to BEAMPIPE1 and BEAMPIPE2, position corrected. - Mylar equivalent included. - SMV (Muon Veto Counter) used at low energy: position corrected. - S2 scintillator in place for the period B - Upstream (MBPSID) scintillators included: SMV,S1,S2,S3,Sh,Snew. - Renamed the muon ancillary detectors. - Muon envelope renamed to MUON (it was CTBMUONSYSTEM)

CTB_G4Sim-00-02-16 15/12/04 |
IDET: ----- - The geometry of the IDET was tested in the new placement in terms of G4 geometry check and it is OK. - First attempt to use CondDB for the SCT digitization, it is needed to check if it is OK. LAr and TILE: ------------- - Initial version of the calibration hits simulation setup. This can be run using the "jobOptions.CTB_G4Sim_Calib.py" under the "share" directory. This the initial version and some changes area expected after the full pythonization of the CTB simulation. GENERAL: -------- - The CTB coordinate system was shifted by X=-475 mm. The Pixel and SCT are in the correct position together with TRT, LAr, Tile and Muon chambers. This tag is the base for the "new" testbeam layout ctb_sim1.3. - The upstream ancillary detectors are in the configuration used after 12/10/04. Later, we will define two more configurations that will correspond with the layout before that date and with the phothon beam runs. - The position of the MBPL magnet in the MuonSytem was corrected in accordance with the last meassurements. The ancillary detectors in the MuonSystem were also corrected. - The size of all the detector envelopes was reduced in order to reduce the CPU time. We are saving the MCTruth information for smaller volumes. - The CTBLIARTILE and CTBMUONSYSTEM envelopes were tuned to avoid clashes at high eta (up to eta=1.2) runs with the Tile extended barrel. - In this new configuration the MagneticField map is not ready and it must wait for the next tag.

(This needs PixelTestBeamDetDescr-00-00-22, SCT_TestBeamDetDescr-00-00-42, TRT_TestBeamDetDescr-00-00-19 on top of 9.2.0) SCT: ---- - The option "SCT_Digitization.TBBadChannels = TRUE" in the digits JobOption file disables one of the SCT planes, the one that is also missing in reality. MUON: ----- - To work with the Muon system in the 9.2.0 main branch or in 9.1.X nightlies the MuonGeoModel-00-01-58 tag is needed (it works in 9.2.0 and the 9.1.X nightlies built later than 04-12-04). Here we use NovaCnvSvc.Version = 7 GENERAL: -------- The CTB coordinate system was shifted by X=-475 mm. The Pixel and SCT are in the correct position together with TRT, LAr, Tile and Muons. Ancillary detectors in the Muon system must be checked. This is a first version and must be tested!!.

CTB_G4Sim-00-02-14 29/11/04 |
GENERAL: -------- - The MCTruth is enabled with the same strategies we have for the Atlas Simulation. The MCTruth will be run by default in the simulation and digitization jobs. (This requires MCTruth-00-00-22 on top Atlas 9.0.0 and all the tags needed in the previous CTB_G4Sim tag).
ATLAS 9.0.0 CMT v1r16p20040901 prepared for the Atlas 9.0.2 release |
CTB_G4Sim-00-02-13 17/11/04 |
To avoid problems in the distribution kit to be build with Atlas 9.0.2 TRT: --- - In order to avoid clashes with the same file that is in use in Atlas we renamed Digitization_parameters.txt to ctb_TRT_Digitization_parameters.txt and TRT_Digitization_management.txt to ctb_TRT_Digitization_management.txt The files we have here are different from the files in Atlas. - This needs the tag TRT_Digitization-00-04-08. - Because of TRT_Digitization-00-04-08 we have to copy here also the files: ctb_TRT_Digitization_geometry.txt ctb_TRT_Digitization_materials.txt These are the same files we have in Atlas. - The line TRTDigitization.ParameterFileName = "ctb_TRT_Digitization" must be added to the digits jobOption file *Note: On top of Atlas 9.0.0 we need the tags: LArG4TBBarrel-00-00-09 LArCalorimeter/LArG4TB/LArG4TBBarrel/LArG4TBBarrel-00-00-09 G4Field-00-00-15 Simulation/G4Utilities/G4Field CombinedScintillator-00-00-10 TileCalorimeter/TileG4/TileAncillary/CombinedScintillator TileG4TestBeam-00-00-20 TileCalorimeter/TileG4/TileG4TestBeam CTB_G4Sim-00-02-12 Simulation/G4Sim/CTB_G4Sim TRT_Digitization-00-04-08 InnerDetector/InDetDigitization/TRT_Digitization/ All this tags were tested with Atlas 9.0.0 and they are OK.

CTB_G4Sim-00-02-12 15/11/04 |
TRT: ---- - Changes into TRT_Digitization_management.txt related to pileup in Atlas LAr: ---- - Changed the LAr envelope: + now there is space for the phantom calo + the actual envelope goes from ri=965 to ro=2270 mm in the LAr projective reference system. In the CTBLIARTILE envelope these numbers are 955 and 2260 (So the LAr envelope is shifted by -10 mm in the CTBLIARTILE) - The LAr was changed, now the total size of the cryostat along beam line is 1275 mm. - The LAr has the lateral alu wall All this needs LArG4TBBarrel-00-00-09 TILE: ----- - The new tag for TileG4TestBeam is TileG4TestBeam-00-00-19. It takes in account that the distance (Z) between Tile and Extended barrel is 97 cm in the part next to LAr. - Other new tag for Tile TileG4TestBeam-00-00-20 reduces the DeltaPhi of the Tile Calorimiter to have more space in the sides of the envelope near to LAr - CombinedScintillator-00-00-09, corrects the dimensions and shape of the Scryo scintillator GENERAL: -------- - Corrected the plugging for the Magnetic Field Map (now it is called H8Field and it needs G4Field-00-00-15 on top of Atlas 9.0.0) - The envelope CTBLIARTILE for LAr and Tile was changed following the last discussions concerning the position of both calo in CTB. There is a new test beam layout for the simulation "ctb_sim-1.2"

TILE: ----- - Corrected the distance between TileTB and Extended Barrel. Now the distance is DeltaZ=97 cm. (This needs on top 8.8.0 the TileG4TestBeam-00-00-18 tag). - Introduced the Dead Material between TileTB and Extended Barrel (DeadMaterial-00-00-02). (It can not be used because it clashes with LAr volumen) - Corrected position and bug fixing for MuonWall, CombinedScintillator (CombinedScintillator-00-00-03, MuonWall-00-00-03) - Corrected position of PhantomCalorimeter (PhantomCalorimeter-00-00-04) Note: CombinedScintillator and MuonWall are not moving with eta MUONS: ------ - TGC and CSC digits should be OK now. On top of 8.8.0 this needs the tags: MuonGeoModel-00-01-47, CSC_Digitization-00-06-09, IdDictParser-00-01-05 Now in the CTB_G4Sim we use the MuonDigiExample/MuonDigitization_jobOptions.py instead of CTB_G4Sim/MuonDigitization_jobOptions.py. GENERAL : --------- - Less verbosity in the digit jobs. - Initial import of the SD for the ancillary detectors. - Positions of the detectors stored in the POOL file - Added three vacumm beam-pipes in the upstream part

We remove the "managment" and "geometry" files in data for the TRT. LAr : ---- - The needed LAr tags (LArG4TBBarrel-00-00-05 and LArG4Barrell-00-00-40) improve the recursive G4 geometry test and decrease the number of crashing jobs due to problems with the G4Navigator. The LArG4Barrell-00-00-40 will solve more errors in the recursive test (Now the recursive-test only complains "The volume LAr::Barrel::Presampler::Cathode3[0] appears to extend outside the mother volume LAr::Barrel::Presampler::Module[0]. GENERAL : --------- - This tag replaces the previous one for the use in production mode - We use Geant4-00-03-15 on top of Atlas 8.7.0 - The test-beam layout is "ctb_sim-1.1" - Added the G4Utilities timer at the end of each event - By default we do not use G4Navigator-check-mode on

ATLAS release 8.3.0 CMT
v1r14p20031120 Prepared for the first data production |
INNER: - Problems to get hits+digits using the ParticleGenerator options we have for the complete CTB simulation. LAR: ---- - Current collection simulation in LAr switched on - LAr needs LArG4Barrel-00-00-34 on top of Atlas 8.3.0. This tag will be included in 8.4.0 MUONS: ------ - Added options for the MDT digitization in the "jobOptions.CTB_G4Dig.py" file GENERAL: -------- - Uses Atlas release 8.3.0 out of the box and it should produce hits for all the detectors and digits INNER, LAr, TILE, MDT and RPC. - Does not include "txt" jobOptions files. - Migrated to Python the randon seeds part of the ParticleGenerator in the "jobOptions.CTB_G4Sim.py" file. - Migrated to Python the Hijing generator in the "jobOptions.CTB_G4Sim.py" file. - Updated the macros for visualization. - Updated the HowTo information.

Intended for the Atlas 8.3.0 release ATLAS release 8.2.0 CMT v1r14p20031120 |
TILE: ----- - The central barrel modules are rotated by 180 deg about X axis, so +/- eta position is correct now. (This uses TileG4TestBeam-00-00-14). MUONS: ------ - Muon system is described with the amdb_simrec.H8_2004_CTB.a.02nobee database - Hits present for all technologies - Solved problems with the recursive-test for MDT technology. - Solved the errors in the MDTIdHelper (This uses: MuonG4Geometry-00-00-61, MuonG4testBeam-00-00-25, MuonG4SD-00-00-47 and the amdb_simrec.H8_2004_CTB.a.02nobee database) GENERAL: -------- - MBPS1 magnet was build in another way to avoid the rotation that prevents the hit production in Pixel and SCT detectors (This uses G4DetectorEnvelopes-00-00-22).

Preliminary ATLAS release 8.2.0 // 8.0.4, CMT v1r14p20031120 |
GENERAL: -------- - Includes a initial Python version of the jobOptions files needed to run the simulation and digitization. - This CTB_G4Sim tag can be run in 8.2.0 or 8.0.4 Atlas releases. In the 8.0.4 Atlas release CTB_G4Sim can be used with the "*.txt" or with the "*.py" jobOption files. To run CTB_G4Sim in the 8.0.4 Atlas release with Python you should copy the contains of AthenaPoolCnvSvc/WriteAthenaPool_jobOptions.py at the header of the HitAthenaPoolWriteOptions.py python script (It seems that python migration was not complete in 8.0.x release). - TRT and LAr-TILE were shifted to follow the CTB layout described in https://edms.cern.ch/file/406980/2/TB2004_layout_v02.pdf There are differences between simulation and real world in case of the Muon system desribed by "amdb_simrec.H8_2004_CTB.a.01" database. These differences have to be solved in the Muon side. - Improvements in the ancillary detector description but those in the LAr-Tile table are not included. - Includes a shell script that will simplify the user's life in case of interactive G4 run with Python. - Next tag will include a new description of the CTB magnets (in which we do not need to rotate them and this makes life easier for the Pixel and SCT detectors). This new description of the magnets needs tags that will not be available in the 8.0.X branch. - After this tag CTB_G4Sim will be back to the main Atlas 8.X.0. - No other changes respect to the CTB_G4Sim-00-01-05 tag.
