Slac Solution For Mac

NOTE: SLAC web training is compatible with Windows computers using the Internet Explorer, Chrome or Firefox browsers and Mac computers using Safari only. As more companies continue to collaborate with external, as well as internal people, Slack has begun working on new solutions. For instance, the Shared Channels feature on Slack makes it possible to share specific channels in your workspace with another company's slack account.

Introduction

In this first hands on you will learn:

• How to define materials
• How to define a very simple geometry
• How to use command line scoring to: record,store and display simulation results

The code for this example can be found here, while the complete solution is here. Download the exercise code and unpack it:

$ cd #change to your working directory $ tar xzf HandsOn2.tar.gz #Or tar -xzf HandsOn2.tar.gz $ cd HandsOn2 $ ls #Take a look at the files $ cd.

A directory HandsOn2 will be created containing the code. Important: If you untar the solution tar-ball this will overwrite the content of HandsOn2 deleting your code! Follow the instructions of Hands On 1 to configure with cmake the example and build it.
Hint: Remember the cmake comamnd line option: -DGeant4_DIR= to specify where the Geant4 lib/Geant4-10.0.1 directory is located. The last argument of cmake is the location of the source code, in our case: /HandsOn2.
Try out the application:

$ cd #If needed, do NOT do the next in HandsOn2 directory (Where the code of the exercise is. $ source /bin/geant4.[c]sh $ mkdir build-HandsOn2 $ cd build-HandsOn2 $ cmake -DGeant4_DIR=/lib/Geant4-10.0.1 /HandsOn2 $ [g]make [-jN] $ ./SlacTut

Note: if you are using an IDE the output binary may be located in a subirectory (for example with Xcode the binary is located under [Debug|Releaase|RelWithDebInfo]).

The following should appear:
Familiarize with the application GUI (if enabled). In particular note the menu with different actions. It is possible to execute UI commands directly form the menu.
The default behavior of the application when started without command line arguments is to start the GUI (if enabled) and execute the macro init_vis.mac (init.mac if no support for visualization has been enabled in G4).
If visualization is enabled and the UI session is graphical the additional macro gui.mac is also executed.

Www.profilevisitors.net finally see who has visited. You can start the application withotu graphics and execute directly a macro file, passing to SlacTut a macro name, for example: ./SlacTut run1.mac

Exercise 0.a:

Find out where in the code the default macros are executed (hint: check the main function). How the default behavior is obtained?

Exercise 0.b:

What is the role of gui.mac macro? Check the syntax of the commands in the application GUI (help panel), or type:

help

at the Geant4 prompt.

Exercise 0.c:

Modify the run1.mac macro file.

Modify some parameters of the simulation: number of events, the particle type.

Defining Materials

In this example, we have created a specific method DetectorConstruction::ConstructMaterials() where all materials that are used in the application are built. Such method is not mandatory, but it may help to organize your code. Throughout this tutorial the exercises are clearly marked in the code itself: search the commented lines:

// // Exercise X.Y

Exercise 1.a:

Create a CsI (Cesium Iodide) material starting from the elements.

Some properties:

Slac Solution For Mac High Sierra

• For Cs: A=55 Zeff=132.9*g/mol
• For I : A=53 , Zeff=126.9*g/mol
• Density of crystal of CsI is: rho=4.51*g/cm^3

Re-compile (no need to cmake again) and start again the application. Observe Geant4 output, at the beginning of the application the list of materials will be shown, starting from the line The materials defined are : . At the end of the method DetectorConstruction::ConstructMaterials() there is a line that prints on screen the complete list of materials defined. Note the paragraph relative to CsI and its properties.
The UI command: /material/g4/printMaterial [name|all] can be issued at run time to print the material table.

Solution

DetectorConstruction.cc File:

G4Element* el_i = new G4Element('Iodine','I', 53,126.9*g/mole); G4Element* el_cs = new G4Element('Cesium','Cs',55,132.9*g/mole); G4Material* mat_csi = new G4Material('CsI',4.51*g/cm3,2); mat_csi->AddElement(el_i,1); mat_csi->AddElement(el_cs,1);

Exercise 1.b:

Use NIST database to create Lead material.

Hint: You can use UI command /material/nist/listMaterials to dump on screen the list of all known Geant4-NIST compounds. Search for the name relative to lead.
Build again the application and run it again. Note that now the list of materials includes lead with all naturally abundant isotopes.

Solution

DetectorConstruction.cc File:

nistManager->FindOrBuildMaterial('G4_Pb');

A very simple geometry

In this example we will create a very simple geometry. The goal of this exercise is to show how to define a shape, a logical volume and a simple placement.

Exercise 2.a

Add a box of to the setup.

The box has full dimensions (X times Y times Z): 300x60x100 cm, select CsI as material. Place the box inside the logical volume second arm. It should be placed at the very back of the mother volume. At the end of the tutorials this simple box will become a calorimeter.
Re-compile and check that you obtain the correct behavior:

Solution

DetectorConstruction.cc File:

G4Material* material = G4Material::GetMaterial('CsI'); G4VSolid* hadCalorimeterSolid = new G4Box('HadCalorimeterBox',1.5*m,30.*cm,50.*cm); G4LogicalVolume* hadCalorimeterLogical = new G4LogicalVolume(hadCalorimeterSolid,material,'HadCalorimeterLogical'); new G4PVPlacement(0,G4ThreeVector(0.,0.,3.*m),hadCalorimeterLogical,'HadCalorimeterPhysical',secondArmLogical,false,0,checkOverlaps);

Exercise 2.b

Change material of the box and observe effect on physics simulation.

Modify the material of the box: instead of CsI, use the scintillator. Simulate a single electron. Note how the material affects the shower dimensions:

Command line based scoring

In this exercise we will collect simulation information using command line scoring. A scoring mesh will be defined on top of the volume created in Exercise 2.a, different quantities will be recorded, and we will show how to display and store the scored quantities.

Exercise 3.a

Enable command line scoring.

Instantiate a scoring manager in the main() function.

Solution

tutorial.cc File:

// Activate UI-command base scorer G4ScoringManager * scManager = G4ScoringManager::GetScoringManager(); scManager->SetVerboseLevel(1);

Exercise 3.b

Score some quantities: energy deposit, number of steps of gammas and use some filters.

Using UI commands create a box mesh that is placed on top of the box you created. The mesh should have the same dimension as the box and it has (X times Y times Z) 30x6x10 voxels. Score the following quantities:

• Energy deposits
• Number of steps for gammas
• Number of steps for e-
• Number of steps for e+

Dump the scored quantities to files and verify the content.

Hint: use the help command to understand the format of command line scoring UI commands.

Solution

The macro scoring.mac shows all the UI commands needed in this exercise.be used directly to create the output file:

$ ./SlacTut scorer.mac

Note: You can reduce the number of simulated events (default 2000) if the simulation takes too long.

scoring.mac File:

/run/initialize ######################################## # # define scoring mesh # /score/create/boxMesh boxMesh_1 # #Create a mesh large as the box /score/mesh/boxSize 150. 30. 50. cm #Position it over the box /score/mesh/translate/xyz 0 0 8 m #mesh voxel size of 5cm /score/mesh/nBin 30 6 10 # /score/quantity/energyDeposit eDep /score/quantity/nOfStep nOfStepGamma /score/filter/particle gammaFilter gamma /score/quantity/nOfStep nOfStepEMinus /score/filter/particle eMinusFilter e- /score/quantity/nOfStep nOfStepEPlus /score/filter/particle ePlusFilter e+ # /score/close # /run/verbose 1 /gun/particle e- /run/beamOn 2000 ######################################## # # Dump scores to a file # /score/dumpQuantityToFile boxMesh_1 nOfStepGamma nOfStepGamma.txt

Exercise 3.c

Visualize scored quantities.

Using UI commands draw on the screen different scored quantities. Schedule server 2003 backup batch file. For example the energy deposit looks like:

Solution

The macro file draw.mac shows how to draw scored quantities, in also shows how to draw slices using loops in UI commands.
This macro should be executed after
