This PR changes the voxelization scheme used by the optical library (hybrid mode). The voxel boundaries in the previous library didn’t match the active volume edges (mismatch ~4 cm). This can lead to an overestimation in the number of detected photons produced by
pdfastsimout
.A new library using a redefined voxelization scheme has been generated by @ggamezdiego. The wrong visibilities reported in issue #243 were fixed by hand (taking advantage of the detector symmetry along the drift direction). A comparison of the visibility map at X~-208 cm and its symmetric configuration for the corrected library can be seen in the following figure:
NB: the new optical library can be found in ‘/sbnd/app/users/gamez/SBND/New-LibHybrid/SBND_OpLibOUT_v2.00New.root’. The library in ‘sbnd_data/OpticalLibrary’ needs to be replaced with the new version.
