Mu2e experiment: Simulation of the Production Target
The Mu2e experiment will search for coherent, neutrinoless conversion of muons to elections in an aluminum stopping target. A simulation program is used to experiment and design the production target of the Mu2e experiment. The module uses programing languages and libraries to work. The program called the Offline uses C++ as the programing language in the module. To construct the simulation, the Geant4 library constructs shapes and uses them in the simulation program, ROOT. The offline program simplifies the creation of the tube by organizing them into parameter objects and nesting them with other variables required to construct the tube-like center point, material, or if it is allowed to conflict with other solids. The parameter varies for every solid tube. The geometry file uploads the parameters by declaring and organizing the parameters in C++ using the configuration tools. The author describes the development and the future of this project.
