Geant4: CAD generated volumes & Lightguides SiLab UTFSM November 2009

Solidworks: Lightguide proposal (Pedro Toledo’s geometry description in Solidworks)

Solidworks export & Geant4 GDML import Solidworks allows STEP export (Standard geometry description). Using Fastrad, it is possible to tessellate the volume and import into a Geant4 using GDML. Geant4 output:

One Lightguide. Geant4 output image of a section.

Optical photons A source is placed inside the lightguide Rays are generated inside a solid angle. Energy of 3[eV] per photon Random polarization. Next image shows simulation:

Optical photons inside Lightguide. Simulations don’t work?! Lightguide material: Plexiglas (index of refraction used 1.5) Outside material: Air (index of refraction used 1.0) In the previous image there should be more internal reflections. This is not happening - there is a serious problem. No bugs reports about this problem, neither persons with the same problem in the official discussion list. Tests are made to find the problem.

Simple simulations: Geometry description: G4Tube Same materials description Same optical photon source. Results: Working. Showing plexiglas photon absorption.

Simple simulations: Geometry description: G4Tube Same materials description Same optical photon source. Results: Working. Showing PMT photon detection (And absorption in it).

Simple simulations: Geometry description: CAD description imported to GDML Geant4 Same materials description Same optical photon source. Results: Not Working. There should be a reflection there. Photon Source

Simple simulations: Forcing photon where the internal reflection is expected in previous simulation Geometry description: CAD description imported to GDML Geant4 Same materials description Results: Not Working. There should be a reflection there. Photon Source

Finally: G4Box vs G4TessellatedSolid Exact same conditions. G4TessellatedSolid do not work with optical photons correctly.

Conclusions: We have geometry imported from SolidWorks output in GDML format. There is implementation problem with optical photons with objects of type G4TessellatedSolid, which will be solved by Geant4 development team. Once the previous is done we will have a complete simulation of the lightguide in Geant4.
