The scripts python/asteria/simulation.py and phython/asteria/detector.py have been adapted to include the IceCube-Gen2 geometry and the effective volume of the mDOM. LOMs and other sensors will be included in the future. Wavelength shifters (WLS) are included in the form of WOM-Traps by scaling the effective volume of the mDOM by a scaling factor (similar to how the HQE DOMs in DeepCore are treated).
For an example of how to use these new features please check out scratch/sim_tester_Gen2.ipynb.

Two minor changes python/asteria/simulation.py have been made:

  • The function avg_dom_signal now calculates a weighted average of the effective volume based on the number of sensor of that type.
  • The function _compute_deadtime_efficiency now applies the scaling based on a 1s binning instead of a 0.5s binning that was used before.

…ed loading of Gen2 simulation from config file
…or detector_signal, detector_hits, and significance calculation in simulation.py
…modification in detector.py for mixing_scheme = 'CompleteExchange'
… that allows arguments om_type and det_type, doubled WLS noise to account for both tubes
…me efficiencies in _compute_deadtime_efficiency for DOM and mDOM, use weighting of dead time efficiency based on the number of sensors in avg_dom_signal
