  1. IceCube simulation with PPC photon propagation code Dmitry Chirkin, UW Madison

  2. Direct photon tracking with PPC photon propagation code • simulating flasher/standard candle photons • same code for muon/cascade simulation • using precise scattering function: linear combination of HG+SAM • using tabulated (in 10 m depth slices) layered ice structure • employing 6-parameter ice model to extrapolate in wavelength • tilt in the ice layer structure is properly taken into account • transparent folding of acceptance and efficiencies • precise tracking through layers of ice, no interpolation needed • precise simulation of the longitudinal development of cascades and • angular distribution of particles emitting Cherenkov photons

  3. Updates to ppc since last meeting • PPC: • LONG: simulate longitudinal cascade development • ANGW: smear cherenkov cone due to shower development • Corrected ice density to average at detector center • Made the code scalable with the number of GPU multiprocessors • The flasher simulation now uses the wavelength profile read from file wv.dat • Randomized the simulation based on system time (with us resolution) • Modified code to run CPU and GPU parts concurrently • Added option to disable a multiprocessor • Added the implementation of the simple approximate Mie scattering function • Added a configuration file "cfg.txt" • New oversized DOM treatment (designed for minimum bias compared to oversize=1): • oversize only in direction perpendicular to the photon •  time needed to reach the nominal (non-oversized) DOM surface is added • re-use the photon after it hits a DOM and ensure the causality in the flasher simulation nominal DOM oversized DOM oversized ~ 5 times photon

  4. Timing of oversized DOM MC xR=1 default  64-48 Flashing 63-50  63-48 xR=1 default do not track back to detected DOM do not track after detection no ovesize delta correction! do not check causality del=(sqrtf(b*b+(1/(e.zR*e.zR-1)*c)-D)*e.zR-h del=e.R-OMR  64-52

  5. Photon angular profile from thesis of Christopher Wiebusch

  6. New ice density: 0.9216 mwe T=221.5-0.00045319*d+5.822e-6*d2-273.15 (fit to AMANDA data) handbook of chemistry and physics T.Gow's data of density near the surface Fit to (1-p1*exp(-p2*d))*f(T(d))*(1+0.94e-12*9.8*917*d)

  7. Simplified Mie Scattering Also known as the Liu scattering function Introduced by Jon Miller Single radius particles, described better as smaller angles by SAM

  8. New approximation to Mie fSAM

  9. ppc icetray module • at http://code.icecube.wisc.edu/svn/projects/ppc/trunk/ • uses a wrapper: private/ppc/i3ppc.cxx, which compiles by cmake system into the libppc.so • it is necessary to compile an additional library libxppc.so by running make in private/ppc/gpu: • “make glib” compiles gpu-accelerated version (needs cuda tools) • “make clib” compiles cpu version (from the same sources!) • link to libxppc.so and libcudart.so (if gpu version) from build/lib directory • this library file must be loaded before the libppc.so wrapper library • These steps are automated with a resouces/make.sh script

  10. ppc example script run.py if(len(sys.argv)!=6): print "Use: run.py [corsika/nugen/flasher] [gpu] [seed] [infile/num of flasher events] [outfile]" sys.exit() … det = "ic86" detector = False … os.putenv("PPCTABLESDIR", expandvars("$I3_BUILD/ppc/resources/ice/mie")) … if(mode == "flasher"): … str=63 dom=20 nph=8.e9 tray.AddModule("I3PhotoFlash", "photoflash")(…) os.putenv("WFLA", "405") # flasher wavelength; set to 337 for standard candles os.putenv("FLDR", "-1") # direction of the first flasher LED … # Set FLDR=x+(n-1)*360, where 0<=x<360 and n>0 to simulate n LEDs in a # symmetrical n-fold pattern, with first LED centered in the direction x. # Negative or unset FLDR simulates a symmetric in azimuth pattern of light. tray.AddModule("i3ppc", "ppc")( ("gpu", gpu), ("bad", bad), ("nph", nph*0.1315/25), # corrected for efficiency and DOM oversize factor; eff(337)=0.0354 ("fla", OMKey(str, dom)), # set str=-str for tilted flashers, str=0 and dom=1,2 for SC1 and 2 ) else:

  11. ppc-pick and ppc-eff • ppc-pick: restrict to primaries below MaxEpri • load("libppc-pick") • tray.AddModule("I3IcePickModule<I3EpriFilt>","emax")( • ("DiscardEvents", True), • ("MaxEpri", 1.e9*I3Units.GeV) • ) • ppc-eff: reduce efficiency from 1.0 to eff • load("libppc-eff") • tray.AddModule("AdjEff", "eff")( • ("eff", eff) • )

  12. Todo list from the last meeting • need to: • verify that it works for V02-04-00 of simulation • add code to treat high-efficient DOMs correctly • verify that it works for IC59 • improve flasher simulation (interface with photoflash) • figure out the best way to compile All done! Done?

  18. Typical run times • corsika: run 3232: 10493 10.0345 sec files • ic86/spx/3232 on cuda00[123] (53.4 seconds per job) • 1.2 days of real detector time in 6.5 days • nugen: run 2972: 9993 200000-event files; E^-2 weighted • ic86/spx/2972 on cudatest (25.1 seconds per job) • entire 10k set of files in 2.9 days  this is enough for an atmnu/diffuse analysis! • Considerations: • Maximize GPU utilization by running only mmc+ppc parts on the GPU nodes • still, IC40 mmc+ppc+detector was run with ~80% GPU utilization • run with 100% DOM efficiency, save all ppc events with at least 1 MC hit • apply a range of allowed efficiencies (70-100%) later with ppc-eff module
