User-Interface Coding For The Cern/Geant Nuclear Physics Program, David L. Roetzel, Wilfred J. Braithwaite
User-Interface Coding For The Cern/Geant Nuclear Physics Program, David L. Roetzel, Wilfred J. Braithwaite
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Explanations will be given of the various user-written routines required by the Monte Carlo detector-modeling program GEANT, developed by CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. User-written routines must be linked with the CERN library to accomplish the researcher's intentions. Examples will illustrate how GEANT passes information to subprograms needed to model events. Various data structures used by GEANT library calls and included in each user routine, are similarly illustrated. Both computational-speed and memory-size limitations need to be factored into the construction of a simulation model. This will constrain the calls used in the user-written routines. Examples are provided of …
Monte Carlo Director Modeling And Display, Using The Cern Laboratory, Christine A. Byrd, Charles M. Byrd, Wilfred J. Braithwaite
Monte Carlo Director Modeling And Display, Using The Cern Laboratory, Christine A. Byrd, Charles M. Byrd, Wilfred J. Braithwaite
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Detectors for high energy nuclear physics experiments are being modeled using programs developed and maintained at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. These programs include data handling and display routines, as well as those using random-sampling Monte Carlo techniques to calculate energy depositions for high energy particles as they pass through the various parts of the detector system. The complete CERN library has been imported for use with our Workstation computers in a multiple user environment. The enormous CERN Monte Carlo program GEANT(French for GIANT) tracks the progress of a particle through a detector on a simulated event-by-event basis. …
Time Projection Chamber's Efficiency, Obtained Using Cern's Geant Code, Christine A. Byrd, Charles M. Byrd, Wilfred J. Braithwaite
Time Projection Chamber's Efficiency, Obtained Using Cern's Geant Code, Christine A. Byrd, Charles M. Byrd, Wilfred J. Braithwaite
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Geometrical acceptance and reconstruction of tracks have been carried out for a Time Projection Chamber (TPC) used in Experiment NA35: the 35th experiment in the North Area of the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS), located at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). NA35 used the SPS at CERN to produce 6.4 TeV beams of 32S for central collisions with Au nuclei. The TPC modeling effort used a modified version of CERN's Monte Carlo program GEANT, which simulates the response of the NA35 TPC to output from CERN's primary event generators. GEANT was used to simulate three-dimensional pixel data in the …
Ultraviolet Spectra Of Acetic Acid, Glycine, And Glyphosate, J. Scott Mcconnell, Rose M. Mcconnell, Lloyd R. Hossner
Ultraviolet Spectra Of Acetic Acid, Glycine, And Glyphosate, J. Scott Mcconnell, Rose M. Mcconnell, Lloyd R. Hossner
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
The influence of pH on the ultraviolet spectra of 0.001, 0.005, and 0.010 M glyphosate, glycine, and acetic acid was investigated. Each dilution of each acid was adjusted to acidic, neutral, and basic pH values. Ultraviolet spectra were recorded from 300 to 200 nm for each acid-dilution-pH combination. The wavelength of maximum absorption (Lambdamax) of glyphosate and glycine was slightly higher in the high pH solutions than in the neutral and low pH solutions. The Lambdamax of acetic acid was apparently unaffected by changes in ph. Molar extinction coefficients (epsilon) at Lambdamax increased with pH for all three acids. Regression …
