1. MCP-PET: Geant4 Simulation Geometry Implementations 1. Similar to the last report (polished surface). Scintillator : LSO, LaBr3 # of layers : 5 -> 4 Area : 51x51mm -> 102x102mm 2. Wavelength shift plastics/optical fiber Collect light on the side wall of X-tal. Need input parameters for WLS plastics. e.g) refractive index, absorption length, emission spectrum,.. Surface condition( Ground -> Polished) for total internal reflection.
