Add Pass2 2021 detector with a coarse alignment #901
Conversation
Ok, the detector is correct in the branch now. |
Please provide some additional information on how this detector was aligned, e.g. which detector was used as a starting point, which alignment parameters were allowed to float, what constraints were used, etc. |
Here is a link to the slides for the talk I gave today on this detector: |
It is unclear to me what you mean by "mature". I would say it is more "mature" than HPS_Run2021Pass1Top, and also every other 2021 geometry currently available. Looking at the number of detectors available for each year in master, it seems the precedent is to put snapshots of the detector into master as progress is made. |
I don't ever plan to update this particular detector, and future improvements will be submitted with a new detector name. |
The talk you referenced does not mention this detector by name, so it's not clear what went into this alignment. The presentation also contains a number of qualifiers, which is why I asked whether this detector will be developed further. Still some improvement to be made |
Why is this detector being merged into master? This is a 2021 detector and until the Run2021 branch gets merged into master this geometry will conflict with the hard-coded geometry parameters in the 2019 code base. |
I can point out several other detectors in master than have similar or worse issues. There is clearly no precedent for only putting fully 100% good detectors into master. |

My comment above in this PR makes it clear this detector is the one the talk is about. There are still some improvements to be made to the 2016 geometry, but that didn't stop anyone from putting in the many versions of the 2016 detector into master. |
This PR just adds a new detector after some work has been done to improve alignment. The biggest improvement with this detector is a much closer momentum scale for electron tracks in the bottom volume.
