Geometry tags
ATLAS-CSC-01-00-00
  • ATLAS-CSC-01-02-00
  • Based on Technical Drawings of Layout R (amdb
    version R01) but
  • Station positions (P-lines) account for Egg shape
    global deformation
  • default station position ? nominal layout
  • Additional random displacements (1mm) and tilts
    (1mrad) of stations with MDTs as static
    Alignment Corrections (A-lines)
  • A-lines loaded init time from the same source of
    P-lines (geom-DB, no Cond-DB) but applied as
    corrections (Delta Transforms) on top of the
    default position and orientation of the station
  • MuonGeoModel implementation fully driven by
    primary numbers in the Oracle tables
  • (primary source) for the active part (good
    validation)
  • (?primary source) for the inert materials (very
    limited validation)
  • Barrel Toroid, Endcap Toroids, Atlas Feet,
    Shielding (disk, forward and toroid)
  • many missing blocks Calorimeter Saddle, TGC
    supports, Big wheel supports others, some not
    yet implemented in Amdb

Geometry tags
  • ATLAS-GEO-00-00-00 vs
    ATLAS-CSC-01-00-00
  • Moving from Layout R in tech. drawings to the MS
    layout as installed (amdb version R03)
  • Active Geometry
  • MDT HV-RO side checked and fixed for a few
    chambers
  • station positions fixed for a few stations
  • RPC layout in Small Sectors RPC positioning in
    the stations with single RPC units RPC chambers
    with cutouts RPC special chambers heavily
    revisited
  • CSC position fixed (layer 2 installed not layer
    1)
  • Dead Matter
  • In the XML description fix pos. of ID Patch
    Panels PP2 Muon Barrel sect. 13) Access
    Platforms, Feet Struts, MDT Big Wheel,
    Calorimeter Saddle, TGC support pos., BOL
    Support, Mobylette, ECT cryostat fix
  • Validation of R03 VERY LIMITED UNTIL NOW NEED
    HIGH STAT. SAMPLE
  • hit relocation OK Amdc vs MGM OK
  • first simulation tests showed a problem with CSC
    now fixed
  • for reconstruction/trigger (LVL1 HLT) emulation
    we need new RPC cabling maps (for very few
    chambers with n. of strips changed w.r.t. old
    layouts)

6
RPC layout in R03
  • As shown also from hit residuals studies
    with cosmic ray data, the RPC layout in the small
    sectors does not correspond to the nominal layout

Dead Matter in GeoModel/GEANT from XML
  • Andrea DellAcqua developed a XML -gt GeoModel
    parser for a transparent translation of Amdb dead
    matter in GeoModel
  • no more painful hand coding of the dead matter
    shape and positioning
  • use directly primary source of dead matter
    description
  • AGDD2Geo in 14.2.0 (not active yet in any default
    configuration)
  • Amdb blob (with XML dead matter) read from Oracle
  • all components in Amdb are translated into
    GeoModel volumes, hence Geant4 volumes via Geo2G4
  • by job-option one can enable to built a
    selection no changes needed for the moment in
    MuonGeoModel
  • planning to start with MDT/TGC supports in the
    big wheels
  • if tests in simulation are OK add platforms,
    services at eta 0, calo saddle, etc.
  • presumably wait longer before replacing
    components already existing in MuonGeoModel

AGDD2Geo
  • TO DO in 14.2.0 and 14.2.10
  • material consistency checks
  • AGDD had extra materials with no
  • correspondence in Oracle yet.
  • geometry checks (mostly in
  • simulation)
  • check for unforeseen overlaps, for
  • correct material distribution
  • GEANT4 tracking performance
  • maybe the most critical chapter
  • (impact on simulation timing, memory)
  • reconstruction checks
  • make sure the whole chain from simulation to
    reconstruction works properly
  • After these checks well freeze, as default, a
    configuration of default options for MuonGeoModel
    AGDD2Geo to enable the tested components in
    simulation and reconstruction

13
Clash review simulation robustness
  • Dennis Wright working on a very careful clash
    hunting and fixing
  • fixes in 14.2.0
  • started from nominally aligned layouts, cured
    residual small active-active clashes due mostly
    to shared surfaces (introduced suitable
    tolerances on volume dimensions)
  • moved to misaligned layout many clashes of
    tilted chamber corners (100 mm) cured by
    reshaping a tighter station envelop, by
    subtracting and adding half cylinder shapes to a
    minimal trapezoid
  • event display becomes heavy
  • solved by enabling(in MC)/disabling(in Reco) this
    fine clash fixing procedure by job option
  • simplified spacer beam description fixes
    (should improve G4 tracking perf.) refine LB
    and CR description linking one object to the
    other to (close to reality)
  • fix BOG cutouts
  • attaching active-inert clashes
  • fixed feet description to fix a clash with BOG
    chambers

14
Clash review simulation robustness
  • Dennis Wright working on a very careful clash
    hunting and fixing
  • after 14.2.0 working on cutouts
  • currently only cutouts in MDTs of BOG stations
    are implemented
  • strategy to implement the rest
  • use GeoCutVolAction for RPCs and DEDs
  • (class propagates cutouts in mother volume down
    to all daughters)
  • OK for above components because there aren't many
    sub-volumes
  • must handle MDTs differently to avoid creating
    too many boolean volumes
  • re-writing Mdt.cxx and parts of MultiLayer.cxx in
    order to generalize MDT cutouts to other cutout
    chambers besides BOGs
  • improvements in AMDB required in order to
    continue

15
Memory issues
  • MuonGeoModel budget 130 MB (out of 1GB
    allocated by simulation tasks, 2GB allocated by
    reconstruction tasks)
  • 50 MB are purely from GeoModel
  • can be reduced to a minimum in reconstruction by
    forgetting all the internal details of detectors
    (i.e, components linked to readout geometry
    classes, used by reconstruction)
  • to be done
  • 80 MB are a tracking related cache (used to be
    built run-time on demand, since 14.1.0 is fully
    built init time)
  • can be turned on in simulation
  • easy and done
  • can be optimised (centrally, not in MuonGeoModel)

FDR2 alignment constants loaded run-time
Cool Folder MUONALIGN/MDT/BARREL
System tested up to reconstruction 1 year ago
with old COOL versions and run/event based IoV
definition
MuonAlignmentDbTool loadParameters
A-line container in storegate
step 1
MuonDetectorToolAlign registered for call back
against MUONALIGN/MDT/BARREL
The Alignment wg provided Alines in COOL
computed with an emulation of the optical al.
system with IoV in the range of the FDR2 data
sets just in time for the FDR2 start-up
step 2
MuonDetectorManager updateAlignment compute
deltaTransforms clear tracking cache
update GeoModel transform tree
Before FDR2 we have been able to test just the
access to the condDB by emulating fake events
with time-stamps matching the A-lines IoV ---
test OK no integration of reconstruction
clear/update MuonGeoModel tracking cache
17
FDR2 alignment constants loaded run-time
  • The integration of reconstruction has been tried
    just at FDR2 we found out what we
    missed
  • by default MuonGeoModel assumes no access to the
    cond DB
  • minimal change in configuration
  • tested on run 522090, before trying in FDR2
  • worked fine if MuonTrackingGeometry disabled
    (otherwise a susp. crash)
  • integrated but crash run-time on a data set
    522080 ? disable
  • Of course testing in final full environment are
    mandatory to ensure no bugs are lurking
  • a bug identified in MuonGeoModel in the mechanism
    for clearing the tracking related cache maybe
    related to the observed crash
  • MuonAlignmentDbTool/MuonDetectorTool are designed
    to read a single folder from COOL when updated
  • but Optical alignment for Barrel / EndCap A /
    EndCap C are independent systems writing
    asynchronously into COOL !
  • some redesign is needed
  • Better planning/communication of working groups /
    sw community (writing sw is not that fun ! lets
    ensure this is done in the interest of the whole
    muon community)

18
Summary of Muon DD functionality in recent and
future releases
  • In 14.2.0 / 14.2.10
  • MuonGeoModel can handle old layouts
    ATLAS-GEO-00-00-00 (much closer to ATLAS pit for
    active geo. than before) still need extensive
    validation
  • make sure we handle it in reconstruction
    (cablings updates for RPC !)
  • small differences in conf. for simulation and
    reconstruction (default)
  • caching flag OFF, fine clash removal ON
  • default dead matter as before (a part from minor
    fixes)
  • new dead matter (via XML?GeoModel parsing) will
    be validated in custom productions
  • In 14.1.0.Y (FDR2 reconstruction release) and
    AtlasPoint1 branch
  • Try to finalize the access and use of condition
    data (access to more folders, full test up to
    reconstruction) for FDR 2 samples and for cosmic
    data (A-lines measured in P4/5 available for
    barrel sector 5 and EC)
  • By 14.3.0 integrate validated new dead matter and
    alignment data handling

19
Conclusions
  • Lot of progress in many areas
  • new dead matter
  • systematic clash fix
  • Data force to improve realism
  • RPC layout, CSC layout
  • some revision of TGC probably necessary
  • Data also show that the sw is not for sw people
    fun
  • improve communication ? progress/dev. is planned
    according to muon community objectives
  • Still needed
  • better way of enforcing coherence simul / reco /
    cablings svc.s
  • better definition of intermediate task borders
    ? better scheduling of work to be done
