  1. Summary from NIU Workshop and PragueS. R. Magill Workshop on simulation, energy-flow algorithms, and software for the Linear Collider November 7 – 9, 2002 Physics and Detectors for a 90 to 800 GeV Linear Collider:Third Workshop of the Extended ECFA/DESY Study Prague, 15th-18th November 2002

  2. Agenda of the NIU Workshop Web site -http://nicadd.niu.edu/ws/ • Day 1 : Simulation and Analysis Tools • LCD software – JAS and LCDROOT • European perspectives • GEANT4 Status • Demos and Tutorial with JAS • Day 2 : CAL Reconstruction/E-Flow Algorithms • ECAL/HCAL issues • Approaches to E-Flow Algorithms • Discussion on Simulation/Software Priorities • Day 3 : Wrap-up, new simulation/analysis plans, etc.

  3. Simulation/Analysis Tools Highlights • Working towards - GEANT4 for everyone • In the spirit of 1 Linear Collider • -> 1 G4 executable worldwide? • What is needed to achieve this : • Common input format from generators • Output compatible with analysis packages • –> interfaces for existing packages - JAS, ROOT, etc. • Common Geometry description package • -> all existing detectors, new designs, easy modifications to existing models • Common data definitions • -> E-Flow record

  4. Reconstruction Simulation Analysis Common Geometry Access (CGA) API Geometry database DGDL A general discussion: towards a Geometry Description Language? New sub-detectors • “Specifications for a detector geometry description language” athttp://polype.in2p3.fr/geant4/tesla/www/index.html#dgdl • Could generate GDML code (see the “Geometry Description Markup Language” project at gdml.web.cern.ch) • Missing human resources to seriously start it!

  5. CAL Reconstruction/E-Flow Highlights • E-Flow Algorithms – variety and complementarity • Clustering – emphasizing “traditional” calorimeter analysis techniques • Fuzzy clustering (minimize cal cell “distance” to combine into clusters) • Cluster ID neural network (using cluster properties to define E-Flow objects) • Track extrapolation – linking cal cells to found tracks • Analog version for ECFA TileCal (SNARK) • Digital version under development (many places) • Hit density gradient – defining digital clusters • Split/merge clusters • Find cluster boundaries • Particle reconstruction in CAL models • Photons (known cluster shape) • Muons (calorimeter MIP tracking) • Neutral hadrons (Analog/Digital energy resolution) • Alternatives to SD/LD detectors - See web site for all the details

  6. Programme of the Prague Workshop (of interest to the Calorimeter Working Group) NEW Web site – http://www-hep2.fzu.cz/ecfadesy/ECFA-DESY_Praha2002.htm • Calorimeter Working Group • Progress in hardware/electronics development – ECAL/HCAL • Approaches to E-Flow • Testbeam prospects • Simulation Working Group • Move to G4 • Continued analysis with fast MCs • Worldwide compatibility • Overall Detector Performance Presentations • Global tracking performance • E-Flow results

  7. Calorimeter Working Group Highlights - See web site for many hardware details

CALICE W-Si Rint~170 Pad 1x1 cm SD-LCD W-Si Rint~120 (SLAC-Oregon) Pad 0.5x0.5cm ECAL :Sampling tungsten-silicon Sampling radiator-tile HCAL : Sampling radiator-scintillator tiles Sampling radiator-gas detector n LCCAL 5x5cm tiles (Italian labs)3 silicon layers ACFA choice 4x4cm tiles 2 layers fibers Staggered tile Rint~160 (Uni. Colorado) tile 5x5cm CALICE tile-HCALprojective tiles 9 layers CALICE DHCAL ( Pad 1x1cm 1bit-readout 40 layers And some exotic proposals (crystal ECAL,…)

  9. CALICE performances studies include Performance variation with dead wafers, with inter-calibration(Only ECAL), with pad size (DHCAL), perf. on jets with HCAL resolution, with variation of X0 in tungsten plates,… Electronics readout performances,noise,etc…is included (ECAL only) Performance with jets (at Z peak for both HCAL option) Performance with jets at high energy (numerical values for tile HCAL) Studies of DHCAL performance (single track) with radiator (steel, tungsten,…) , with pad size. Electron, muon ID. for isolated particle/in jets (better than ALEPH…) TO DO Almost everything - performances with pad size, with layer numbers (partly done for ECAL) - performances at high energy (including boson mass) - input for the electronics (HCAL mainly) - input for Lumi. measurement (end-cap), input for TPC T0 calibration. …………

  12. Simulation Working Group Highlights

  13. Overall detector performance WG • Common language Reconstruction data model included in the general/common framework coordinated by simulation people i.e. Ties Behnke & Franck Gaede Next month Before end of 02 • Collect the existent developments • Make them public available • Fill the missing holes • Welcome new comers • Go ahead to Amsterdam involving different sub-detectors e.g. Tracking, EFLOW, Flavor ID First Intermediate meeting Early beginning of January 03 MINI-WORKSHOP Very Short Term Priorities Following data model presc. and feed back to Franck & al. Full list of items on Web page

  14. A preliminary list of items we may discuss during this Mini-Workshop • Reconstruction data model (improvements, feed back to simulation people) • Status of what exists (enlarge the vision e.g. CMS, Belle VTX algo. As commented during this session) • How to make them public available if not yet (time scale, effort needed, performances, contents, algorithms involved, detector based on, …) • How to move to a or a various event reconstruction packages merging tracking reconstruction w/ ‘eflow’ reconstruction clusters, include ID flavor (missing pieces, foreseen improvements, effort needed, what one side need from other sub-detectors, e.g. hits information from back track interaction not coming from IP, as commented during this session) • What are the benchmark processes we want to exam at first priority (Which key numbers) • How we intent to perform the comparisons and share the work. • Comparisons to test the various sub-detectors options, test the sub-detectors parameters in a whole detector context e.g. numbers of layers, pad size, VTX techno, added options, TPC geometry, Quad position, …

  15. Impact on Future Work Plan to have future workshops focussing on CAL simulation and analysis emphasing E-Flow algorithms At NIU and Prague, started discussion that could lead to a very flexible, maintainable, and compatible simulation/analysis environment for worldwide LC detector study/design. At Prague, new study group organized to address specific issues of E-Flow reconstruction, etc., across subdetector boundaries.
