- presently no scheme has been worked out for any scenario
- impact on photon reconstruction [what is our current geometry?]
- what material is included for the WCs/SiPMs/cables?
- cost estimates
- light guides and collection
- Comments:
- Area of fibers cover 50% of the area of the end of the Bcal. Reduction is 2.
- Area of the output of the WC (1.2 cm2) reduces the readout by 4cm2/1.2cm2 = 3.3.
Space Constraints
- The Sketch below is to illustrate the space constraints for any light collection and readout system. We note that this is the geometry that has been presented at reviews; the 'current geometry' given below has a somewhat different description:
Current Geometry
The current geometry as visualized by ROOT (courtesy of Beni) is given below. All guides (both inner and outer) are represented by brown trapezoids (simple representation of a Winston Cone). The outer 'WC' are 10 cm long. The inner 'WC' are 5 cm long. The inner 'WC' are followed by 2x2x2 cm3 gray Al block to represent the SiPM. Six 'SiPMs' are butted and appear as a single radial piece connecting the 'WC's. Cables are simulated with material (not shown) that is routed quickly out and around the yoke. The Al plate (also gray) extends beyond the end of the Bcal (likely unchanged from previous longer Bcal geometry so should be updated).
