Question from A.Blondel

• Give a common goal to be achieved by the next
  review

I have appreciated the presentation of the
offline software team, with a team leader etc...
As promised I come forth with the question could
you give us -- and yourself -- a common goal to
be achieved with that software in time for the
next review?

The Answer

• MC unified framework
• With double option Tokyo or Pisa
• Test on reduced number of PMTs
• Large Prototype MC unification
• CEX beam test
• Same offline package for DATA MC
• Event Display
• Initially GEANT3

4
MC Framework
- the MC unified framework (with the double
option Tokyo or Pisa) of the final detector
should be ready (or almost ready) for the next
meeting at PSI therefore, the test on reduced
number of PMTs could be done in the separate
programs and in the unified framework as check
5
MC Framework for MEG(1)

• Unified framework with double option
• Tokyo or Pisa code,
• Framework based on
• Fortran 77,
• CERNLIB,
• ZEBRA,
• GEANT3,
• Distributed via CVS.

6
MC Framework for MEG(2)

• Tree structure skeleton ready
• Materials tracking medium merged
• Event generator stand alone built-in
• DC, TC, Magnet and B field merged
• ZEBRA structure in progress
• Scintillation photon tracking in progress.

7
To be done MEG MC

• Merge Liq. Xe Geometry
• Test w/ reduced number of PMT in Liq. Xe
• Digitization for all the sub detectors
• Full reconstruction program
• Offline database ODB? Separate database
  (e.g.PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.)?

8
Lproto CEX beam test
- the same work will be done for the Large
Prototype MC, probably in time for the October
beam test the Large Prototype data and MC will
be analyzed with the same offline package
9
LProto CEX beam test

• MC merge into the new framework just finished.
• Common output format for DATA/MC
• Scintillation photon tracking in Liq. Xe Full
  ray tracing or geometrical tracking
• Reflection on the PMT quartz window Fresnel or
  total reflection
• Scintillation light spectrum Monochromatic,
  Gaussian, Basov et.al, etc.
• Rayleigh scattering/absorption in Liq. Xe.

10
To be done beam test

• NaI response simulation
• LiH target and Vessel simulation
• Phase space simulation for p0
• Offline database ODB? Separate database (e.g.
  PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.)?

11
Event Display
- the MC event display in the unified framework
will be written by using GEANT3, while for the
general event display (useful for on-line also)
the final decision will be taken later.

Schedule Man Power (1)

• Present a realistic schedule by the review
  committee
• By when will each sub detector part be
  ready?e.g. Is the DC simulation ready by the
  coming DC beam test?
• Assignment?

13
Schedule Man Power (2)

• Liq Xe G.Signorelli, S.Yamada
• Drift Chamber F.Cei, H.Nishiguchi
• Timing Counter P.Cattaneo
• Target/Beam P.-R. Kettle
• Magnet W.Ootani
• Trigger D.Nicolo
