[Gate-users] PHOTOMULTIPLIER TUBE

[LORENA VAZQUEZ CANELAS]

Hi Gate Users!

Sorry for all my doubts ...
I wonder if there is any way to implement the photomultiplier tubes to
simulate more realistically my PET form.
I am using a CylindricalPET, but I don't know if I have to define a
"different world" and repeat on the blocks. I have 4 tubes per block.
It would be something?

/gate/world2/geometry/setXLength       400. cm
/gate/world2/geometry/setYLength       400. cm
/gate/world2/geometry/setZLength       400. cm

/gate/world2/daughters/name                     PMT
/gate/world2/daughters/insert                     cylinder
/gate/PMT/placement/setTranslation           0.0 0.0 0.0 cm
/gate/PMT/geometry/radius                         0.2 cm
/gate/PMT/geometry/halfz                           35 cm
/gate/PMT/setMaterial                                  Aluminium
/gate/PMT/vis/forceWireframe                     1
/gate/PMT/vis/setColor                                 blue

#    REPEAT PMT
/gate/crystal/repeaters/insert                             cylinderArray
/gate/crystal/cubicArray/setRepeatNumberX     1
/gate/crystal/cubicArray/setRepeatNumberY     2
/gate/crystal/cubicArray/setRepeatNumberZ     2
/gate/crystal/cubicArray/setRepeatVector          0 0.2 0.2 cm

- I'd have to put a repetition vector (0,0.2,0.2) because the dimensions of
my crystals are (2,0.4,0.4)cm³.

Thank you in advance.
 Best regards,
