Geometry Differential Framework [third test, material balance for TPCe04]
Abstract: To further test the prototype geometry differential framework, it is useful to examine the latest version of the TPC geometry using Yuri's ROOT/TGeo/VMC implementation. This is useful as it is completely independent of starsim/AgSTAR detector description. (No more-fortran).
Figure 1 -- Left: Yuri's TPC model (aka the 'new' model). Not all daughter volumes have been plotted. Right: Material balance plot from my code. Most daughter volumes have been plotted.
Bottom line: three peaks show up in the material balance plot w/ approximately the right magnitude, dip near eta=1 reproduced, plateau from 1.5 to 2.0 reproduced with right locations of little peaks, etc...
Conclusion: My code is accurately determining the material balance.
