Outline AGATA SWG – recent activities GANIL-SPIRAL2 ICC Workshops on simulation AGATA Code – recent/future developments GPS & GDML capability Additional Ancillaries Update on Simulated Photopeak efficiency curves Simulated efficiency & P/T curves for GANIL Configurations Validation of simulation / GSI source run

https://npg.dl.ac.uk/ICC-simulation/ICCWorkshopSim2015 Recent Activities (1/2) ICC Simulation workshop (Nov 2015): Presentations and Tutorials on: AGATA code (M. Labiche) Including a demo with LYCCA and a demo on Simulated Time Stamped data SToGs toolkit (O. Stezowsky, I. Companis) Detectors available: PARIS, AGATA, EXOGAM, FATIMA, N-Wall, DIAMANT, … All Geometry are defined in gdml format Could become the new framework for AGATA in if more and more users start using it and develop it. (Connectivity to GammaWare & Femul) All slides are still available here: https://npg.dl.ac.uk/ICC-simulation/ICCWorkshopSim2015

https://github.com/malabi/gdml-files Recent Activities (2/2) New ICC Simulation workshop 29th Nov -1st Dec 2016 Presentations and Tutorials on NPTool framework User friendly framework (GEANT4 + ROOT) MUST2, GASPARD, MUGAST, TIARA, HELIOS, PARIS, FATIMA …. Built-in event generators for the kinematics of direct reactions. Also GDML compatible AGATA geometry could easily be exported into NPTool New GitHub repository for gdml files: https://github.com/malabi/gdml-files

agata/branch/GANIL/trunk/macros/gps Recent developments GEANT4 General Particle Source GPS allows the user to simulate realistic sources (ex: 60Co, 152Eu, …) Now also available in the AGATA code: ./Agata –gps Ex. Macros also available in the GANIL branch svn repostory: agata/branch/GANIL/trunk/macros/gps However: Issues with some intensities ! 152Eu

Recent developments GEANT4 GDML capability added Implement Mechanical structure Easy to include as ancillary: ./Agata –a N id HoneyComb is invoked as ancillary with id number: 26 Ganil vacuum chamber + target frame has the id number: 27 OUPS (unique id not yet attributed) Import/export detector from/to other framework

Future developments Other ancillaries (?) NEDA DIAMANT (?) Not yet part of the AGATA svn repository. Based on AGATA Code, but not defined as ancillary yet ! DIAMANT (?) No update received. Existing geometry file in ASC to be updated ? New chamber to be added Diamant as currently defined in ASC

Simulated Efficiency & P/T curves (after tracking with mgt) Setup: - Nominal - 10ATC+1ADC at backward angles Isotropic source (Mg=1) + Vacuum Chamber + Anisotropy (E2 ) + Beta beam=10%

Simulated Efficiency curves (Nominal) Isotropic source with and without Chamber

Simulated Efficiency curves (Nominal) Adding E2 anisotropy + Anisotropy E2

Simulated Efficiency curves (Nominal) Adding bbeam =10% + Anisotropy E2

Simulated Efficiency curves for the compact configuration + Anisotropy E2

Simulation validation GSI source run with 21 crystals N. Lalovic et al. NIM A 806 (2016) 258-260 Full energy peak efficiency @ 1172 keV eExp (%) eSim (%) Core Common 2.38(2) 2.84(9) Calorimeter 3.30(2) 4.21(8) So: ~20% discrepancy on the Core Common Efficiency ~33% discrepancy on the Calorimeter Efficiency

Simulation validation GSI source run with 21 crystals N. Lalovic et al. NIM A 806 (2016) 258-260 Full energy peak efficiency @ 1172 keV eExp (%) eSim (%) Core Common 2.38(2) 2.84(9) Calorimeter 3.30(2) 4.21(8) Actually, 23 crystals were considered in the simulations So: ~20% discrepancy on the Core Common Efficiency ~33% discrepancy on the Calorimeter Efficiency

Simulation validation GSI source run with 21 crystals N. Lalovic et al. NIM A 806 (2016) 258-260 Full energy peak efficiency @ 1172 keV eExp (%) eSim (%) Core Common 2.38(2) 2.55(14) Calorimeter 3.30(2) 3.71(17) Now for 21 crystals ! So: ~7% discrepancy on the Core Common Efficiency ~12% discrepancy on the Calorimeter Efficiency

Summary Implementation of GEANT4 GPS & GDML capability New “Ancillaries” added to the ASC svn repository using GDML But NEDA & DIAMANT new chamber still needs to be added Vacuum Chamber has a significant attenuation impact on Efficiency & P/T ratio at low energy. Any Ancillary detector inside the chamber would also have an impact E2 Ang. Corr. and bbeam (10%) have also an effect on Efficiency but almost none on P/T, as it seems. Simulation of the GSI source measurement have been corrected but still overestimate the experimental efficiency. GANIL source measurement would also be interesting to compare with.
