<p>SaadShaikh: /* Local Installation of GEANT4 on MacOS */</p>
<hr />
<div>This page contains information on the Geant4 code that form the Proton Calorimetry detector simulation. <br />
<br />
In order to run Geant4 simulations, you will either need to download and install the software yourself or make use of the existing installation on the UCL HEP Linux cluster. <br />
To use the existing installation, follow [http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/pbt/wiki/Software/Geant4 this dedicated page].<br />
<br />
== Local Installation of GEANT4 on MacOS ==<br />
<br />
''Tested on macOS Ventura 13.3.1''<br />
<br />
* Install Xcode 13 or higher from the Mac App Store and install command line tools by executing in a terminal window <code>xcode-select --install</code>. Agree to the Xcode license: <code>sudo xcodebuild -license</code><br />
* Install XQuartz [https://www.xquartz.org/]<br />
* Install MacPorts appropriate for your system [https://www.macports.org/install.php].<br />
* Install CMake using MacPorts: <code> sudo port install cmake </code><br />
* Install Qt5 [https://www.qt.io/download-open-source]<br />
** You will need to register for an account as an open-source developer.<br />
** Only need to install the latest version of Qt5 (5.15.2)<br />
*Install GEANT4 [http://geant4.web.cern.ch/support/download]<br />
**See installation guide [http://geant4-userdoc.web.cern.ch/geant4-userdoc/UsersGuides/InstallationGuide/html/installguide.html here]<br />
**Download the GEANT4 source code and copy to a convenient location, e.g. in the Applications folder: <code>/Applications/GEANT4/geant4-vX.Y.Z</code> and then create parallel directories for the build and install folders.<br />
**In the GEANT4 build folder, execute: <code>cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../geant4-vX.Y.Z-install -DGEANT4_BUILD_MULTITHREADED=ON -DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON -DGEANT4_USE_GDML=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/qmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/lib/cmake -DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_RAYTRACER_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_EXPAT=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_ZLIB=OFF ../geant4-vX.Y.Z</code><br />
**Then execute: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Then execute: <code>make install</code><br />
*Source the geant4.sh script as appropriate for your shell so that the environment is set every time a new terminal window is opened:<br />
**If using bash, in your <code>.bash_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>. <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin/geant4.sh</code><br />
**If using zsh, in your <code>.z_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>pushd <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin >/dev/null; source geant4.sh; popd >/dev/null</code><br />
*Try compiling the basic example B1:<br />
**Copy the source folder of example B1: <code><path to GEANT4 installation folder>/share/Geant4-<your version here>/examples/basic/B1</code> to a convenient directory.<br />
**Make a directory in which to build: <code>mkdir build</code> and then move to this directory, <code>cd build</code><br />
**Execute <code>cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to GEANT4 installation folder>/lib/ ../</code><br />
**Execute <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Run the example: <code>./exampleB1</code><br />
<br />
== Running QUARC Detector Simulation ==<br />
<br />
*You can copy the simulation files from this path on the HEP cluster: <code>/unix/pbt/users/sshaikh/Simulation</code> <br />
*In the folder 'build', execute: <code>sudo cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/lib/Geant4-<YOUR VERSION HERE>/ <YOUR PATH TO SIMULATION FOLDER></code><br />
*Then, execute: <code>sudo make</code><br />
*To run the simulation with the default macro, <code>inter.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation</code><br />
*To run the simulation with a different macro, e.g. <code>interactive.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation ../macros/interactive.mac</code><br />
<br />
=== Running QUARC Detector Simulation in Eclipse IDE ===<br />
*Create new makefile project with existing code in Eclipse and choose the directory containing <code>CMakeLists.txt</code> as the Existing Code Location.<br />
*Under Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations:<br />
**Create a new launch configuration and set the variables Location to <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/eclipse_build.sh}</code> and Working Directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/build}</code> (adjust paths if needed).<br />
**This will run <code>cmake</code>, which is necessary before building.<br />
**Set Refresh behaviour to refresh the workspace after completion.<br />
**Uncheck Build Before Launch<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ build: <br />
**Uncheck "Use Default Build Command" and "Generate Makefiles Automatically".<br />
**Set the build command to: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Set the build location to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation}/build</code>, adjusting path if needed.<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ General –> Paths and Symbols -> Includes, add the variables to include GEANT4 headers (for all languages and configurations, adjusting directories appropriately for your installations):<br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/GEANT4</code><br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/CLHEP</code> (May not be necessary and requires non-GEANT4 installation of CLHEP).<br />
**<code>/Applications/root_v6.20.00</code> (If ROOT is required)<br />
*Under Run -> Run Configurations, create a new configuration of type C/C++ application for the project:<br />
**Set C/C++ application to <code>build/ProtonSimulation</code><br />
**Under Arguments, set the working directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:Simulation}/build</code><br />
**Under Environment, define the variables pointing to GEANT4's data sets:<br />
***These are defined at the bottom of <code>/usr/local/bin/geant4.sh</code> under 'Export resource file paths'<br />
***e.g. Variable: <code>G4ENSDFSTATEDATA</code>, Value: <code>/usr/local/share/Geant4-10.6.1/data/G4ENSDFSTATE2.2</code><br />
***There are 11 of them in GEANT4 10.6.1.<br />
*To then run the simulation, run the external tool and then run the launch configuration (which by default will make and run the application).<br />
<br />
== General Notes ==<br />
<br />
* In output file <code>EdepAccurate</code>, each number represents the energy deposited in the user-defined sheet thickness, divided by spatial resolution (not in file name)<br />
** e.g. <code>EdepAccurate_252.7MeV_200x2_500mustep_100p_refl.out</code> represents 252.7 MeV beam, 200 sheets of 2mm thickness, 500 micron StepMax, 100 protons, reflection allowed. <br />
** StepMax represents the minimum resolution in GEANT4’s tracking of particles, characteristics are calculated in distance intervals. If undefined, GEANT4 will choose a step size that represents the finest increment required by the various physics lists. Default value might be ~2mm.<br />
* Can choose to record number of photons produced or number of photons that reach the edge of the scintillator. In the latter, allowing reflections is necessary.<br />
** Number of photons produced is stored in <code>NPhoton</code><br />
** Number of photons that reach edge of scintillator is stored in <code>NPhotonTop</code><br />
* In file Hits, there is a list of all protons produced in simulation with their energy, 2 mystery numbers and their stopping depth. <br />
** Small numbers are indicative of a nuclear interaction, which results in a proton being deflected sufficient to warrant a new particle ID.<br />
* The parameter <code>rangeCut</code> defines the minimum range of a secondary particle (electrons, positrons & gammas) such that it is tracked until it stops. Such particles with ranges below <code>rangeCut</code> just have their energy deposited in place and are then deleted. This is such to avoid long-computation times.<br />
** This does not however apply to any other secondaries, e.g. neutrons or alpha particles.<br />
* Notation: e.g. <code>/control/multiply x {y} {z} </code><br />
** x = y times z<br />
** Brackets are required when using previously defined variables<br />
* Positional origin of simulation is in middle of scintillator<br />
* It is more important to have sufficient numbers of protons in simulation in order to accurately simulate the energy deposition curve. While in reality approx. 10000 photons per MeV lost in protons is produced, this would take far too long to simulate and would require reducing the number of protons. However, the depth-light curve can only ever be as good as the energy deposition curve – so sampling more photons with only few protons will NOT give a good depth-light curve.<br />
<br />
== Existing Issues ==<br />
*The macros, e.g. <code>inter.mac</code> attempt to define aspects of the detector geometry, but fail do so. It appears that GEANT4 defines a geometry based on <code>PTDetectorConstruction</code> and then does not allow the macro to update the geometry. See <code>ProtonSimulation.cc</code>: the macro is called after the geometry is defined. Find some code where a macro redefines the geometry successfully to find out where to place the macro-defined geometry parameters. Probably needs work in the Messenger source files or <code>PTDetectorConstruction::UpdateGeometry()</code>.</div>

=== ISDI Sensor Instructions ===<br />
'''General Sensor Configuration'''<br />
*Base Configuration is 14 x 1 Bit<br />
*Resolution is 1030 x 1536 pixels<br />
*For selecting pixel rows in centre: Use horizontal offset (ignore DVAL to activate field) and horizontal resolution<br />
<br />
'''Increase number of frame buffers'''<br />
*To increase the number of frame buffers to the allowed maximum, start XCAP as administrator.<br />
*Select Capture/Sequence Capture/Video to Frame Buffers/Driver Assistant<br />
*Tick box in left field, then set number of frame buffers here.<br />
<br />
'''Serial Terminal instructions for ISDI sensor'''<br />
*Find serial terminal in PIXCI(R) tab of sensor control software.<br />
*In Controls/Options: Make sure "Send string with CR" is selected. Should be default.<br />
*In Controls/Setup: Select Serial Port: Enabled. Baud rate has to be 115200<br />
*Set low full well mode using W000300000<br />
*Set high full well mode using W000300004<br />
*Read full well mode using R0003<br />
<br />
'''Continuous Field buffer setting'''<br />
*This setting makes sure that the buffer is filled with a new frame as they come in. If this option is not selected the sensor and software will not be synchronised and we *will record a lot of pitch black images.<br />
*Select Capture/Live Options//Live Mode/Live Video: Continuous All buffer capture<br />
<br />
=== DDC232 Instructions ===<br />
*Bash script <code>prog.sh</code> executes <code>FTDI.cpp</code> and <code>livePlot.cpp</code>. Execute with <code>. prog.sh 2 350 170 0 50 true Data/capture.txt</code> in the directory <code>Photodiodes</code>.<br />
**First argument is the number of DDC232s.<br />
**Second argument is the full-scale range (FSR) in pC. Choices are: 12.5, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350.<br />
**Third argument is the integration time in us. Range is 170-1455. Set in multiples of 5 us.<br />
**Fourth argument is the number of measurements to acquire. Typically acquire 5700 measurements per second. Set to 0 for infinite loop.<br />
**Fifth argument is the rate in Hz to update the file <code>average.csv</code> for ROOT/web GUI plotting.<br />
**Sixth argument is a boolean to choose whether to display the ROOT plot.<br />
**Seventh argument is the filename and destination for the output hexadecimal data.<br />
*After acquisition, close ROOT by choosing File->Quit in the ROOT window and then stopping DAQ (if in infinite loop) with CTRL-C.<br />
<br />
== Experiment Plan ==<br />
<br />
*Shoot-through measurements (back & front) for light calibration and level setting.<br />
*Range measurements between 70-120 MeV with 1mm steps with CMOS sensor and photodiodes.<br />
*High intensity range measurements between 70-120 MeV with 1mm steps with photodiodes at optimal light level.<br />
*Live measurement of 3cm x 3cm x 3cm treatment plan.<br />

**See installation guide [http://geant4-userdoc.web.cern.ch/geant4-userdoc/UsersGuides/InstallationGuide/html/installguide.html here]<br />
**Download the GEANT4 source code and copy to a convenient location, e.g. in the Applications folder: <code>/Applications/GEANT4/geant4-vX.Y.Z</code> and then create parallel directories for the build and install folders.<br />
**In the GEANT4 build folder, execute: <code>cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../geant4-vX.Y.Z-install -DGEANT4_BUILD_MULTITHREADED=ON -DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON -DGEANT4_USE_GDML=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/qmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/lib/cmake -DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_RAYTRACER_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_EXPAT=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_ZLIB=OFF ../geant4-vX.Y.Z</code><br />
**Then execute: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Then execute: <code>make install</code><br />
*Source the geant4.sh script as appropriate for your shell so that the environment is set every time a new terminal window is opened:<br />
**If using bash, in your <code>.bash_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>. <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin/geant4.sh</code><br />
**If using zsh, in your <code>.z_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>pushd <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin >/dev/null; source geant4.sh; popd >/dev/null</code><br />
*Try compiling the basic example B1:<br />
**Copy the source folder of example B1: <code><path to GEANT4 installation folder>/share/Geant4-<your version here>/examples/basic/B1</code> to a convenient directory.<br />
**Make a directory in which to build: <code>mkdir build</code> and then move to this directory, <code>cd build</code><br />
**Execute <code>cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to GEANT4 installation folder>/Geant4-<your version here>/ ../</code><br />
**Execute <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Run the example: <code>./exampleB1</code><br />
<br />
== Running QUARC Detector Simulation ==<br />
<br />
*You can copy the simulation files from this path on the HEP cluster: <code>/unix/pbt/users/sshaikh/Simulation</code> <br />
*In the folder 'build', execute: <code>sudo cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/lib/Geant4-<YOUR VERSION HERE>/ <YOUR PATH TO SIMULATION FOLDER></code><br />
*Then, execute: <code>sudo make</code><br />
*To run the simulation with the default macro, <code>inter.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation</code><br />
*To run the simulation with a different macro, e.g. <code>interactive.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation ../macros/interactive.mac</code><br />
<br />
=== Running QUARC Detector Simulation in Eclipse IDE ===<br />
*Create new makefile project with existing code in Eclipse and choose the directory containing <code>CMakeLists.txt</code> as the Existing Code Location.<br />
*Under Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations:<br />
**Create a new launch configuration and set the variables Location to <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/eclipse_build.sh}</code> and Working Directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/build}</code> (adjust paths if needed).<br />
**This will run <code>cmake</code>, which is necessary before building.<br />
**Set Refresh behaviour to refresh the workspace after completion.<br />
**Uncheck Build Before Launch<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ build: <br />
**Uncheck "Use Default Build Command" and "Generate Makefiles Automatically".<br />
**Set the build command to: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Set the build location to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation}/build</code>, adjusting path if needed.<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ General –> Paths and Symbols -> Includes, add the variables to include GEANT4 headers (for all languages and configurations, adjusting directories appropriately for your installations):<br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/GEANT4</code><br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/CLHEP</code> (May not be necessary and requires non-GEANT4 installation of CLHEP).<br />
**<code>/Applications/root_v6.20.00</code> (If ROOT is required)<br />
*Under Run -> Run Configurations, create a new configuration of type C/C++ application for the project:<br />
**Set C/C++ application to <code>build/ProtonSimulation</code><br />
**Under Arguments, set the working directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:Simulation}/build</code><br />
**Under Environment, define the variables pointing to GEANT4's data sets:<br />
***These are defined at the bottom of <code>/usr/local/bin/geant4.sh</code> under 'Export resource file paths'<br />
***e.g. Variable: <code>G4ENSDFSTATEDATA</code>, Value: <code>/usr/local/share/Geant4-10.6.1/data/G4ENSDFSTATE2.2</code><br />
***There are 11 of them in GEANT4 10.6.1.<br />
*To then run the simulation, run the external tool and then run the launch configuration (which by default will make and run the application).<br />
<br />
== General Notes ==<br />
<br />
* In output file <code>EdepAccurate</code>, each number represents the energy deposited in the user-defined sheet thickness, divided by spatial resolution (not in file name)<br />
** e.g. <code>EdepAccurate_252.7MeV_200x2_500mustep_100p_refl.out</code> represents 252.7 MeV beam, 200 sheets of 2mm thickness, 500 micron StepMax, 100 protons, reflection allowed. <br />
** StepMax represents the minimum resolution in GEANT4’s tracking of particles, characteristics are calculated in distance intervals. If undefined, GEANT4 will choose a step size that represents the finest increment required by the various physics lists. Default value might be ~2mm.<br />
* Can choose to record number of photons produced or number of photons that reach the edge of the scintillator. In the latter, allowing reflections is necessary.<br />
** Number of photons produced is stored in <code>NPhoton</code><br />
** Number of photons that reach edge of scintillator is stored in <code>NPhotonTop</code><br />
* In file Hits, there is a list of all protons produced in simulation with their energy, 2 mystery numbers and their stopping depth. <br />
** Small numbers are indicative of a nuclear interaction, which results in a proton being deflected sufficient to warrant a new particle ID.<br />
* The parameter <code>rangeCut</code> defines the minimum range of a secondary particle (electrons, positrons & gammas) such that it is tracked until it stops. Such particles with ranges below <code>rangeCut</code> just have their energy deposited in place and are then deleted. This is such to avoid long-computation times.<br />
** This does not however apply to any other secondaries, e.g. neutrons or alpha particles.<br />
* Notation: e.g. <code>/control/multiply x {y} {z} </code><br />
** x = y times z<br />
** Brackets are required when using previously defined variables<br />
* Positional origin of simulation is in middle of scintillator<br />
* It is more important to have sufficient numbers of protons in simulation in order to accurately simulate the energy deposition curve. While in reality approx. 10000 photons per MeV lost in protons is produced, this would take far too long to simulate and would require reducing the number of protons. However, the depth-light curve can only ever be as good as the energy deposition curve – so sampling more photons with only few protons will NOT give a good depth-light curve.<br />

== Existing Issues ==<br />
*The macros, e.g. <code>inter.mac</code> attempt to define aspects of the detector geometry, but fail do so. It appears that GEANT4 defines a geometry based on <code>PTDetectorConstruction</code> and then does not allow the macro to update the geometry. See <code>ProtonSimulation.cc</code>: the macro is called after the geometry is defined. Find some code where a macro redefines the geometry successfully to find out where to place the macro-defined geometry parameters. Probably needs work in the Messenger source files or <code>PTDetectorConstruction::UpdateGeometry()</code>.</div>

<p>SaadShaikh: /* Local Installation of GEANT4 on MacOS */</p>
<hr />
<div>This page contains information on the Geant4 code that form the Proton Calorimetry detector simulation. <br />
<br />
In order to run Geant4 simulations, you will either need to download and install the software yourself or make use of the existing installation on the UCL HEP Linux cluster. <br />
To use the existing installation, follow [http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/pbt/wiki/Software/Geant4 this dedicated page].<br />
<br />
== Local Installation of GEANT4 on MacOS ==<br />
<br />
''Tested on macOS Ventura 13.3.1''<br />
<br />
* Install Xcode 13 or higher from the Mac App Store and install command line tools by executing in a terminal window <code>xcode-select --install</code>. Agree to the Xcode license: <code>sudo xcodebuild -license</code><br />
* Install XQuartz [https://www.xquartz.org/]<br />
* Install MacPorts appropriate for your system [https://www.macports.org/install.php].<br />
* Install CMake using MacPorts: <code> sudo port install cmake </code><br />
* Install Qt5 [https://www.qt.io/download-open-source]<br />
** You will need to register for an account as an open-source developer.<br />
** Only need to install the latest version of Qt5 (5.15.2)<br />
*Install GEANT4 [http://geant4.web.cern.ch/support/download]<br />
**See installation guide [http://geant4-userdoc.web.cern.ch/geant4-userdoc/UsersGuides/InstallationGuide/html/installguide.html here]<br />
**Download the GEANT4 source code and copy to a convenient location, e.g. in the Applications folder: <code>/Applications/GEANT4/geant4-vX.Y.Z</code> and then create parallel directories for the build and install folders.<br />
**In the GEANT4 build folder, execute: <code>cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../geant4-vX.Y.Z-install -DGEANT4_BUILD_MULTITHREADED=ON -DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON -DGEANT4_USE_GDML=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/qmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/lib/cmake -DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_RAYTRACER_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_EXPAT=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_ZLIB=OFF ../geant4.X.Y.Z</code><br />
**Then execute: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Then execute: <code>make install</code><br />
*Source the geant4.sh script as appropriate for your shell so that the environment is set every time a new terminal window is opened:<br />
**If using bash, in your <code>.bash_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>. <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin/geant4.sh</code><br />
**If using zsh, in your <code>.z_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>pushd <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin >/dev/null; source geant4.sh; popd >/dev/null</code><br />
*Try compiling the basic example B1:<br />
**Copy the source folder of example B1: <code><path to GEANT4 installation folder>/share/Geant4-<your version here>/examples/basic/B1</code> to a convenient directory.<br />
**Make a directory in which to build: <code>mkdir build</code> and then move to this directory, <code>cd build</code><br />
**Execute <code>cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to GEANT4 installation folder>/Geant4-<your version here>/ ../</code><br />
**Execute <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Run the example: <code>./exampleB1</code><br />
<br />
== Running QUARC Detector Simulation ==<br />
<br />
*You can copy the simulation files from this path on the HEP cluster: <code>/unix/pbt/users/sshaikh/Simulation</code> <br />
*In the folder 'build', execute: <code>sudo cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/lib/Geant4-<YOUR VERSION HERE>/ <YOUR PATH TO SIMULATION FOLDER></code><br />
*Then, execute: <code>sudo make</code><br />
*To run the simulation with the default macro, <code>inter.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation</code><br />
*To run the simulation with a different macro, e.g. <code>interactive.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation ../macros/interactive.mac</code><br />
<br />
=== Running QUARC Detector Simulation in Eclipse IDE ===<br />
*Create new makefile project with existing code in Eclipse and choose the directory containing <code>CMakeLists.txt</code> as the Existing Code Location.<br />
*Under Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations:<br />
**Create a new launch configuration and set the variables Location to <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/eclipse_build.sh}</code> and Working Directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/build}</code> (adjust paths if needed).<br />
**This will run <code>cmake</code>, which is necessary before building.<br />
**Set Refresh behaviour to refresh the workspace after completion.<br />
**Uncheck Build Before Launch<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ build: <br />
**Uncheck "Use Default Build Command" and "Generate Makefiles Automatically".<br />
**Set the build command to: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Set the build location to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation}/build</code>, adjusting path if needed.<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ General –> Paths and Symbols -> Includes, add the variables to include GEANT4 headers (for all languages and configurations, adjusting directories appropriately for your installations):<br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/GEANT4</code><br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/CLHEP</code> (May not be necessary and requires non-GEANT4 installation of CLHEP).<br />
**<code>/Applications/root_v6.20.00</code> (If ROOT is required)<br />
*Under Run -> Run Configurations, create a new configuration of type C/C++ application for the project:<br />
**Set C/C++ application to <code>build/ProtonSimulation</code><br />
**Under Arguments, set the working directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:Simulation}/build</code><br />
**Under Environment, define the variables pointing to GEANT4's data sets:<br />
***These are defined at the bottom of <code>/usr/local/bin/geant4.sh</code> under 'Export resource file paths'<br />
***e.g. Variable: <code>G4ENSDFSTATEDATA</code>, Value: <code>/usr/local/share/Geant4-10.6.1/data/G4ENSDFSTATE2.2</code><br />
***There are 11 of them in GEANT4 10.6.1.<br />
*To then run the simulation, run the external tool and then run the launch configuration (which by default will make and run the application).<br />
<br />
== General Notes ==<br />
<br />
* In output file <code>EdepAccurate</code>, each number represents the energy deposited in the user-defined sheet thickness, divided by spatial resolution (not in file name)<br />
** e.g. <code>EdepAccurate_252.7MeV_200x2_500mustep_100p_refl.out</code> represents 252.7 MeV beam, 200 sheets of 2mm thickness, 500 micron StepMax, 100 protons, reflection allowed. <br />
** StepMax represents the minimum resolution in GEANT4’s tracking of particles, characteristics are calculated in distance intervals. If undefined, GEANT4 will choose a step size that represents the finest increment required by the various physics lists. Default value might be ~2mm.<br />
* Can choose to record number of photons produced or number of photons that reach the edge of the scintillator. In the latter, allowing reflections is necessary.<br />
** Number of photons produced is stored in <code>NPhoton</code><br />
** Number of photons that reach edge of scintillator is stored in <code>NPhotonTop</code><br />
* In file Hits, there is a list of all protons produced in simulation with their energy, 2 mystery numbers and their stopping depth. <br />
** Small numbers are indicative of a nuclear interaction, which results in a proton being deflected sufficient to warrant a new particle ID.<br />
* The parameter <code>rangeCut</code> defines the minimum range of a secondary particle (electrons, positrons & gammas) such that it is tracked until it stops. Such particles with ranges below <code>rangeCut</code> just have their energy deposited in place and are then deleted. This is such to avoid long-computation times.<br />
** This does not however apply to any other secondaries, e.g. neutrons or alpha particles.<br />
* Notation: e.g. <code>/control/multiply x {y} {z} </code><br />
** x = y times z<br />
** Brackets are required when using previously defined variables<br />
* Positional origin of simulation is in middle of scintillator<br />
* It is more important to have sufficient numbers of protons in simulation in order to accurately simulate the energy deposition curve. While in reality approx. 10000 photons per MeV lost in protons is produced, this would take far too long to simulate and would require reducing the number of protons. However, the depth-light curve can only ever be as good as the energy deposition curve – so sampling more photons with only few protons will NOT give a good depth-light curve.<br />

*Gave presentation on analysis on PARTREC beam test, slides can be found [http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/pbt/wikiData/presentations/2023/SS230315_PARTREC.pptx here].<br />
**Beam quality worsens at lower energies, possibly due to aluminium beam degrader.<br />
**Appear to have linear scaling of average charge measured with beam current.<br />
**Fit results do vary with different beam current: effect is more pronounced at lower (worse) energies, best results still have 0.1-0.2 mm difference in range.<br />
**There is some interplay with Birks' constant and range – worse values of Birks' constant give worse range results.<br />
**Possibly have 0.8mm systematic offset from reference data, but need more reference data to confirm.<br />
*Programmed flash memory on USB104 board so that device is programmed with DDC232 code on power-up.<br />
**Updated Raspberry Pi and loaded latest versions of DAQ code: set up works with Sonia's GUI.<br />
*Will start PBT journal club with Sonia to start consolidating research from other groups on scintillators for proton therapy & ionisation quenching.<br />
*Organised first meeting of UCL HEP Climate Change projects and drafted a call for proposals for 4 small funded projects for PhD students.</div>

*Delivered update on Geant4 simulation development, slides can be found here.<br />
**Found a list of values for Gaussian energy straggling to produce curves similar to those measured at UCLH, across clinical energy range.<br />
**Added detector messenger to allow Birks' constant to be set at runtime.<br />
*Gave presentation on analysis on PARTREC beam test, slides can be found here.<br />
**Beam quality worsens at lower energies, possibly due to aluminium beam degrader.<br />
**Appear to have linear scaling of average charge measured with beam current.<br />
**Fit results do vary with different beam current: effect is more pronounced at lower (worse) energies, best results still have 0.1-0.2 mm difference in range.<br />
**There is some interplay with Birks' constant and range – worse values of Birks' constant give worse range results.<br />
**Possibly have 0.8mm systematic offset from reference data, but need more reference data to confirm.</div>

<br />
=== Present ===<br />
<br />
'''Saad Shaikh''', '''Simon Jolly''', '''Sonia Escribano''', '''Maya Maciurzynska''', '''Andreas Korn'''<br />
<br />
=== [[ELogs/SaadShaikh|Saad Shaikh]] ===<br />
*Reviewed notes from Sonia on QuARC paper and implemented them.<br />
*Met with Sarah Osman and Andreas Kyprianou from MaThRad to discuss interest in expanding Bortfeld model to describe heavy ion depth-dose relationships<br />
**They may be able to provide support with a PhD student to work on Geant4 simulation.<br />
*Will provide Sonia with live fitting and replay scripts for use with new version of web GUI.<br />
*Met with Ruben to discuss progress on Maya's MSci project:<br />
**Will reach out to Charles-Antoine to discuss way to reduce optical artefacts in DSLR images.<br />
**Will write a script to plot simulated Geant4 depth dose data alongside UCLH reference data to help calibrate depth and determine appropriate beam settings for simulation.<br />
**Sonia to investigate scoring LET in Geant4 simulation.<br />
*FLASH abstract accepted for oral presentation at PTCOG61!<br />
**Clatterbridge abstract accepted for a poster.<br />
*Blocked out broad structure of thesis, wrote first draft of introduction and now making a start on chapter on detector design.</div>

<br />
=== [[ELogs/SaadShaikh|Saad Shaikh]] ===<br />
*With assistance from the Geant4 forum, implemented a new way of counting photons in simulation, giving more physical results and fixing issues with V11.1 and on Apple Silicon.<br />
**Opened a new topic on the forum to discuss best way to collect light in photodiodes.<br />
**Will chase NUVIA for material data, though Ruben suggested there are other people that can be contacted if NUVIA cannot help.<br />
*Stepped in for Simon to give a talk on the QuARC at the MaThRad workshop.<br />
**Tristan Pryer (from Bath) seemed keen to foster collaboration, specifically on implementing a numerical routine for quenched heavy ion curves.<br />
*Got confirmation from Stan that department will be able to provide 3 months additional funding – plan to submit thesis at the end of June.<br />
**Submitted examination entry form via Portico and viva nomination form to Stan.<br />
*Will go over Sonia's notes on the QuARC paper tomorrow.<br />
*Making a start on thesis...</div>

<br />
=== [[ELogs/SaadShaikh|Saad Shaikh]] ===<br />
*Investigating optical issues with Geant4:<br />
**Implemented a way to import optical material properties with increasing energy vectors – gives different results. Asking questions about this on [https://geant4-forum.web.cern.ch/t/issues-with-optical-properties-in-g4-v11-1-0/9854 Geant4 forum].<br />
***Might find a better way to collect photons.<br />
**Seems that refractive index and bulk absorption length data are the most important properties to define for proper behaviour.<br />
***Have reached out to NUVIA to request new figures for refractive index, bulk absorption spectrum and wavelength shifting absorption/emission.<br />
**Will investigate getting Geant4 simulation working on Apple Silicon.<br />
*Reviewed Bristol seminar slides with Sonia.<br />
*Will now start writing thesis.</div>

*Merged Raffy's fix for step limiting into Geant4 simulation and updated visualisation colouring scheme.<br />
**Next steps for development is to fix photodiode light collection and fix energy vectors for scintillation properties not being in ascending order.<br />
*Started adding plots and analysis into QuARC paper, should be ready for review later this week.</div>

'''Saad Shaikh''', '''Simon Jolly''', '''Raffaella Radogna''', '''Sonia Escribano''', '''Maya Maciurzynska'''<br />
<br />
=== [[ELogs/SaadShaikh|Saad Shaikh]] ===<br />
*Abstracts submitted to PTCOG 61.<br />
*Provided data file for GUI tests to Sonia and Geant4 screenshots/plots to Simon.<br />
**Raffy has fixed stepping observed in depth-dose curve by limiting step length in simulation.<br />
**Will update simulation and re-run to provide new plots.<br />
**May want to change colouring scheme of visualisation.<br />
*Live fitting and live plotting of photodiode data now accepts up to 4 stack configuration files for calibration.<br />
*Added majority of references to QuARC paper, now will do a pass to add figures and plots.<br />
**Hopefully can invite collaboration next week.<br />
*Sent Simon form for requesting PhD extension funds, needs a statement and to be submitted by the end of the month.</div>

<p>SaadShaikh: /* Local Installation of GEANT4 on MacOS */</p>
<hr />
<div>This page contains information on the Geant4 code that form the Proton Calorimetry detector simulation. <br />
<br />
In order to run Geant4 simulations, you will either need to download and install the software yourself or make use of the existing installation on the UCL HEP Linux cluster. <br />
To use the existing installation, follow [http://www.hep.ucl.ac.uk/pbt/wiki/Software/Geant4 this dedicated page].<br />
<br />
== Local Installation of GEANT4 on MacOS ==<br />
<br />
''Tested on macOS Big Sur 11.6.5 and Monterey 12.3''<br />
<br />
* Install Xcode 13 or higher from the Mac App Store and install command line tools by executing in a terminal window <code>xcode-select --install</code>. Agree to the Xcode license: <code>sudo xcodebuild -license</code><br />
* Install XQuartz [https://www.xquartz.org/]<br />
* Install MacPorts appropriate for your system [https://www.macports.org/install.php].<br />
* Install CMake using MacPorts: <code> sudo port install cmake </code><br />
* Install Qt5 [https://www.qt.io/download-open-source]<br />
** You will need to register for an account as an open-source developer.<br />
** Only need to install the latest version of Qt5 (5.15.2)<br />
*Install GEANT4 [http://geant4.web.cern.ch/support/download]<br />
**See installation guide [http://geant4-userdoc.web.cern.ch/geant4-userdoc/UsersGuides/InstallationGuide/html/installguide.html here]<br />
**In the GEANT4 build folder, execute: <code>cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<path to GEANT4 installation folder> -DGEANT4_BUILD_MULTITHREADED=ON -DGEANT4_INSTALL_DATA=ON -DGEANT4_USE_GDML=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_QT=ON -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/qmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to Qt installation folder>/5.15.2/clang_64/lib/cmake -DGEANT4_USE_OPENGL_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_RAYTRACER_X11=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_EXPAT=OFF -DGEANT4_USE_SYSTEM_ZLIB=OFF <path to GEANT4 download folder></code><br />
**Then execute: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Then execute: <code>make install</code><br />
*Source the geant4.sh script as appropriate for your shell so that the environment is set every time a new terminal window is opened:<br />
**If using bash, in your <code>.bash_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>. <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin/geant4.sh</code><br />
**If using zsh, in your <code>.z_profile</code> (in your home directory, press CMD+SHIFT+. to make the file visible) add the line <code>pushd <path to GEANT4 installation folder>/bin >/dev/null; source geant4.sh; popd >/dev/null</code><br />
*Try compiling the basic example B1:<br />
**Copy the source folder of example B1: <code><path to GEANT4 installation folder>/share/Geant4-<your version here>/examples/basic/B1</code> to a convenient directory.<br />
**Make a directory in which to build: <code>mkdir build</code> and then move to this directory, <code>cd build</code><br />
**Execute <code>cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<path to GEANT4 installation folder>/Geant4-<your version here>/ ../</code><br />
**Execute <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Run the example: <code>./exampleB1</code><br />
<br />
== Running QUARC Detector Simulation ==<br />
<br />
*You can copy the simulation files from this path on the HEP cluster: <code>/unix/pbt/users/sshaikh/Simulation</code> <br />
*In the folder 'build', execute: <code>sudo cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/lib/Geant4-<YOUR VERSION HERE>/ <YOUR PATH TO SIMULATION FOLDER></code><br />
*Then, execute: <code>sudo make</code><br />
*To run the simulation with the default macro, <code>inter.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation</code><br />
*To run the simulation with a different macro, e.g. <code>interactive.mac</code>, execute: <code>./ProtonSimulation ../macros/interactive.mac</code><br />
<br />
=== Running QUARC Detector Simulation in Eclipse IDE ===<br />
*Create new makefile project with existing code in Eclipse and choose the directory containing <code>CMakeLists.txt</code> as the Existing Code Location.<br />
*Under Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations:<br />
**Create a new launch configuration and set the variables Location to <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/eclipse_build.sh}</code> and Working Directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation/build}</code> (adjust paths if needed).<br />
**This will run <code>cmake</code>, which is necessary before building.<br />
**Set Refresh behaviour to refresh the workspace after completion.<br />
**Uncheck Build Before Launch<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ build: <br />
**Uncheck "Use Default Build Command" and "Generate Makefiles Automatically".<br />
**Set the build command to: <code>make -jN</code> where N is the number of cores your machine has.<br />
**Set the build location to: <code>${workspace_loc:/Simulation}/build</code>, adjusting path if needed.<br />
*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ General –> Paths and Symbols -> Includes, add the variables to include GEANT4 headers (for all languages and configurations, adjusting directories appropriately for your installations):<br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/GEANT4</code><br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/CLHEP</code> (May not be necessary and requires non-GEANT4 installation of CLHEP).<br />
**<code>/Applications/root_v6.20.00</code> (If ROOT is required)<br />
*Under Run -> Run Configurations, create a new configuration of type C/C++ application for the project:<br />
**Set C/C++ application to <code>build/ProtonSimulation</code><br />
**Under Arguments, set the working directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:Simulation}/build</code><br />
**Under Environment, define the variables pointing to GEANT4's data sets:<br />
***These are defined at the bottom of <code>/usr/local/bin/geant4.sh</code> under 'Export resource file paths'<br />
***e.g. Variable: <code>G4ENSDFSTATEDATA</code>, Value: <code>/usr/local/share/Geant4-10.6.1/data/G4ENSDFSTATE2.2</code><br />
***There are 11 of them in GEANT4 10.6.1.<br />
*To then run the simulation, run the external tool and then run the launch configuration (which by default will make and run the application).<br />
<br />
== General Notes ==<br />
<br />
* In output file <code>EdepAccurate</code>, each number represents the energy deposited in the user-defined sheet thickness, divided by spatial resolution (not in file name)<br />
** e.g. <code>EdepAccurate_252.7MeV_200x2_500mustep_100p_refl.out</code> represents 252.7 MeV beam, 200 sheets of 2mm thickness, 500 micron StepMax, 100 protons, reflection allowed. <br />
** StepMax represents the minimum resolution in GEANT4’s tracking of particles, characteristics are calculated in distance intervals. If undefined, GEANT4 will choose a step size that represents the finest increment required by the various physics lists. Default value might be ~2mm.<br />
* Can choose to record number of photons produced or number of photons that reach the edge of the scintillator. In the latter, allowing reflections is necessary.<br />
** Number of photons produced is stored in <code>NPhoton</code><br />
** Number of photons that reach edge of scintillator is stored in <code>NPhotonTop</code><br />
* In file Hits, there is a list of all protons produced in simulation with their energy, 2 mystery numbers and their stopping depth. <br />
** Small numbers are indicative of a nuclear interaction, which results in a proton being deflected sufficient to warrant a new particle ID.<br />
* The parameter <code>rangeCut</code> defines the minimum range of a secondary particle (electrons, positrons & gammas) such that it is tracked until it stops. Such particles with ranges below <code>rangeCut</code> just have their energy deposited in place and are then deleted. This is such to avoid long-computation times.<br />
** This does not however apply to any other secondaries, e.g. neutrons or alpha particles.<br />
* Notation: e.g. <code>/control/multiply x {y} {z} </code><br />
** x = y times z<br />
** Brackets are required when using previously defined variables<br />
* Positional origin of simulation is in middle of scintillator<br />
* It is more important to have sufficient numbers of protons in simulation in order to accurately simulate the energy deposition curve. While in reality approx. 10000 photons per MeV lost in protons is produced, this would take far too long to simulate and would require reducing the number of protons. However, the depth-light curve can only ever be as good as the energy deposition curve – so sampling more photons with only few protons will NOT give a good depth-light curve.<br />
<br />
== Existing Issues ==<br />
*The macros, e.g. <code>inter.mac</code> attempt to define aspects of the detector geometry, but fail do so. It appears that GEANT4 defines a geometry based on <code>PTDetectorConstruction</code> and then does not allow the macro to update the geometry. See <code>ProtonSimulation.cc</code>: the macro is called after the geometry is defined. Find some code where a macro redefines the geometry successfully to find out where to place the macro-defined geometry parameters. Probably needs work in the Messenger source files or <code>PTDetectorConstruction::UpdateGeometry()</code>.</div>

*Under Project Properties –> C/C++ General –> Paths and Symbols -> Includes, add the variables to include GEANT4 headers (for all languages and configurations, adjusting directories appropriately for your installations):<br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/GEANT4</code><br />
**<code>/usr/local/include/CLHEP</code> (May not be necessary and requires non-GEANT4 installation of CLHEP).<br />
**<code>/Applications/root_v6.20.00</code> (If ROOT is required)<br />
*Under Run -> Run Configurations, create a new configuration of type C/C++ application for the project:<br />
**Set C/C++ application to <code>build/ProtonSimulation</code><br />
**Under Arguments, set the working directory to: <code>${workspace_loc:Simulation}/build</code><br />
**Under Environment, define the variables pointing to GEANT4's data sets:<br />
***These are defined at the bottom of <code>/usr/local/bin/geant4.sh</code> under 'Export resource file paths'<br />
***e.g. Variable: <code>G4ENSDFSTATEDATA</code>, Value: <code>/usr/local/share/Geant4-10.6.1/data/G4ENSDFSTATE2.2</code><br />
***There are 11 of them in GEANT4 10.6.1.<br />
*To then run the simulation, run the external tool and then run the launch configuration (which by default will make and run the application).<br />

== General Notes ==<br />
<br />
* In output file <code>EdepAccurate</code>, each number represents the energy deposited in the user-defined sheet thickness, divided by spatial resolution (not in file name)<br />
** e.g. <code>EdepAccurate_252.7MeV_200x2_500mustep_100p_refl.out</code> represents 252.7 MeV beam, 200 sheets of 2mm thickness, 500 micron StepMax, 100 protons, reflection allowed. <br />
** StepMax represents the minimum resolution in GEANT4’s tracking of particles, characteristics are calculated in distance intervals. If undefined, GEANT4 will choose a step size that represents the finest increment required by the various physics lists. Default value might be ~2mm.<br />
* Can choose to record number of photons produced or number of photons that reach the edge of the scintillator. In the latter, allowing reflections is necessary.<br />
** Number of photons produced is stored in <code>NPhoton</code><br />
** Number of photons that reach edge of scintillator is stored in <code>NPhotonTop</code><br />
* In file Hits, there is a list of all protons produced in simulation with their energy, 2 mystery numbers and their stopping depth. <br />
** Small numbers are indicative of a nuclear interaction, which results in a proton being deflected sufficient to warrant a new particle ID.<br />
* The parameter <code>rangeCut</code> defines the minimum range of a secondary particle (electrons, positrons & gammas) such that it is tracked until it stops. Such particles with ranges below <code>rangeCut</code> just have their energy deposited in place and are then deleted. This is such to avoid long-computation times.<br />
** This does not however apply to any other secondaries, e.g. neutrons or alpha particles.<br />
* Notation: e.g. <code>/control/multiply x {y} {z} </code><br />
** x = y times z<br />
** Brackets are required when using previously defined variables<br />
* Positional origin of simulation is in middle of scintillator<br />
* It is more important to have sufficient numbers of protons in simulation in order to accurately simulate the energy deposition curve. While in reality approx. 10000 photons per MeV lost in protons is produced, this would take far too long to simulate and would require reducing the number of protons. However, the depth-light curve can only ever be as good as the energy deposition curve – so sampling more photons with only few protons will NOT give a good depth-light curve.<br />
<br />
== Existing Issues ==<br />
*The macros, e.g. <code>inter.mac</code> attempt to define aspects of the detector geometry, but fail do so. It appears that GEANT4 defines a geometry based on <code>PTDetectorConstruction</code> and then does not allow the macro to update the geometry. See <code>ProtonSimulation.cc</code>: the macro is called after the geometry is defined. Find some code where a macro redefines the geometry successfully to find out where to place the macro-defined geometry parameters. Probably needs work in the Messenger source files or <code>PTDetectorConstruction::UpdateGeometry()</code>.</div>
