- //Photoelectron statistics:
- // The light yield is a poissonian distribution of the number of
- // photons created in a plastic layer, calculated using following formula
- // NumberOfPhotons = EnergyLost * LightYieldMean* APDEfficiency *
- // exp (-LightYieldAttenuation * DistanceToPINdiodeFromTheHit)
- // LightYieldMean is parameter calculated to be over 100000 photons per GeV (a guess)
- // APDEfficiency is 0.02655
- // fLightYieldAttenuation is 0.0045 a guess
- // TO BE FIXED
- //***** Need a method in geometry to retrieve the fiber length corresponding to each layer
- //***** See the step manager for the light attenuation calculation
- // The number of electrons created in the APD is
- // NumberOfElectrons = APDGain * LightYield
- // The APD Gain is 300
