Detailed Description

The DEGG class is responsible for constructing the D-Egg detector geometry. It creates the pressure vessel, the inner volume, and places the PMTs inside the logical volume of the gel. The class is derived from the OMSimDetectorComponent base class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ DEGG()

DEGG::DEGG ( G4bool pPlaceHarness = true )

Todo:

I am not sure if the harness is correctly implemented!
Clean up the code.
Subtract CAD penetrator from the vessel.
Investigate why the gel does not reach the photocathode edge. (Should the photocathode edge end earlier? Gel, Vessel, and PMT shape are correct.)
