Simulation Meeting March 28 2019 1030AM ET

Simulation Task List Updated 2019

JLab room CC B101 is reserved for the meeting

Simulation task list discussion
- Radiation/Shielding
  - Radiation load on hybrid toroid nose: Rakitha, Juliette
  - Radiation shielding and activation: Rakitha, Kent, and Ciprian
- Overall Background studies:
  - Air/vacuum?He simulation studies: Ciprian
  - Slit scattering background* (the elimination of all 1-bounce sources and the leading 2-bounce sources): KK (student?)
- General Spectrometer:
  - Multi-loop spectrometer option: Juliette
- Detector area background:
  - Optimized main detector geometries: Ciprian
  - Detector Shielding Optimization*: KK, Cameron
  - Shower-max splashback: KK (student?)
  - Crosstalk evaluation: KK (student?)
  - PMT backgrounds*: Juliette, Sakib
  - PMT double-differences: Ciprian, Kent
  - Muon pair production: Wouter
  - Beam dump background impact on Pion detector: Wouter
  - Beam dump background impact on the Main detector (Beam dump background estimate and shielding requirements):?
  - Hyperon background estimation*: Wouter
- Tracking:
  - Optics Collimator for Q2*: Seamus, David A.
- Theory:
  - Radiative corrections for all physics processes: Seamus, Yuri
Simulation software updates:
- Raster update: use the new raster with beam generator in develop branch
- Energy deposit: The discrepancy may have been due to old and new raster applied simultaneously. The physics list QGSP_BERT vs. QGSP_BERT_HP can have 10% discrepancy in energy.
