IceCube simulation with PPC Dmitry Chirkin, UW Madison, 2010

Photonics First, run photonics to fill space with photons, tabulate the result Create such tables for nominal light sources: cascade and uniform half-muon Simulate photon propagation by looking up photon density in tabulated distributions  Table generation is slow  Simulation suffers from a wide range of binning artifacts  Simulation is also slow! (most time is spent loading the tables)

Direct photon tracking with PPC simulating flasher/standard candle photons same code for muon/cascade simulation using Henyey-Greenstein scattering function with =0.8 using tabulated (in 10 m depth slices) layered ice structure employing 6-parameter ice model to extrapolate in wavelength transparent folding of acceptance and efficiencies precise tracking through layers of ice, no interpolation needed much faster than photonics for E -2 nugen and unweighted CORSIKA:  corsika files (4 sec each) in 24 hours  E -2 nugen files in 24 hours IC-40 i.e., E -2 nugen files in ~3-4 days on 6-GPU cudatest in ~1 day on 3 cuda00X computers photon propagation code

PPC simulation on GPU graphics processing unit execution threads propagation steps (between scatterings) photon absorbed new photon created (taken from the pool) threads complete their execution (no more photons) Running on an NVidia GTX 295 CUDA-capable card, ppc is configured with: 384 threads in 33 blocks (total of threads) average of ~ 512 photons per thread (total of photons per call)

Photon Propagation Code: PPC There are 5 versions of the ppc: original c++ "fast" c++ in Assembly for CUDA GPU icetray module All versions verified to produce identical results comparison with i3mcml

NVidia claims a total of 5.36 Teraflops. In total we have spent $ for the system including monitor and a first power supply which we had to replace later. Update (3/5/10): all 3 GTX295 cards are now Superclocked Edition

Ice Fitting with PPC It became obvious that the AHA ice parameterization is inaccurate in explaining the IceCube data (flasher, standard candles, muon background, atmospheric neutrino, more?) and a new direct fitting procedure was implemented:  For each set of ice parameters (scattering and absorption at ~100 depths (10- meter slices in depth) the detector response was simulated to 60 different flasher events (on string 63). This response was compared to the data with a likelihood function, which took into account both statistical and 10% belt of systematic errors.  The minimum found with AHA as the initial approximation resulted in SPICE (South Pole Ice) model  The minimum found with bulk ice as the initial approximation but combined with the dust logger data to extrapolate in x and y for positions other than that of string 63, and in depth above and below the detector, resulted in SPICE 2 (South Pole Ice, second iteration) model  More iterations may be possible to take into account other sources of data

Correlation with dust logger data effective scattering coefficient (from Ryan Bay) Ice tilt as measured by the dust loggers was easily implemented. This was not possible with photonics. Scaling to the location of hole 50 fitted detector region

Rapid improvements in simulation by Anne Schukraft by Sean Grullon Downward-going CORSIKA simulation Up-going muon neutrino simulation

Summary 1.PPC is a direct photon propagation tool:  extensively verified  uncompromising precision of ice description  no interpolation  uses full xy map of ice properties  reached the production level of performance 2.PPC-GPU allowed to develop the SPICE 2 (South Pole ICE) model:  fitted to IceCube flasher data collected on string 63 in 2008  demonstrated remarkable correlation with the dust logger data  therefore was extended to incorporate these data  use of flasher timing information is possible (SPICE 2+ ) 3.Rapid progress in simulation leads to very good agreement with data:  In-situ flasher simulation  background muon simulation  neutrino simulation
