Hi KK,<br>
<br>
Those are raw data out of the latest FLUKA and out of one trial run.
I assume that FLUKA has state of the art cross sections in it, but,
to be confident in the results, one needs to check if the results
agree with existing experimental data and GEANT.<br>
This requires higher statistic to separate the results into
different channels. <br>
Acceptance in the graphs is slightly larger than 5 to 17 mrad just
to see beyond the limits. <br>
The gap is a result of the fact that the cross section is linear in
solid angle or cos(theta), and since I plotted equidistant binning
in cos(theta) as non-equidistant binning in theta one binning was
skipped. <br>
So it is just a way it was plotted not that there is a gap in
physics. <br>
0.15% is what we use to estimate the ratio in rates between pions
and electrons and, I guess, in the way you defined.<br>
<br>
The idea of this exercise is to speed up the simulation by dividing
it into stages where the output of one stage becomes the input into
the other. <br>
<br>
For example, the spectral distribution of the particles coming out
of the target can be the input into simulating the background due to
the beam dump. This will speed up the simulation by orders of
magnitude. <br>
<br>
Cheers, <br>
<br>
Neven<br>

HI, I won’t be able to call into the meeting. What generator are
you using? Also our acceptance is 5 to 17 mrad or so. I don’t
understand why you have no electrons between 0.4 and 0.5 degrees.
The 0.15% estimate is for pions generated in the target in the
target (prompt electro or photo production) that go through the
primary acceptance collimator, compared to the Moller rate through
that collimator. No punch throughs have ever been properly
simulated (yet). Perhaps I am mistaken about what you call 0.15%.

I do not know if we will have time to discuss it today,
but I am looking into pion/electron rates. <br class="">
In all our simulations we assume that the pion rate is
~0.15 percent. <br class="">
Attached is my first preliminary simulation of
pion/electron rates as a function of the particles angle
and energy.<br class="">
I have to carefully recheck this numbers, change binning
a little, and increase statistics.<br class="">
