Three slices the individual Shockley-Ramo weighting potential for a U, a V and a W wire, placed together.

Note: this package is still a work in progress!

Note: this documentation is still a mish mash and may not represent reality!

This package:

• models simple parametric 3D geometric objects such as needed to describe electrodes in a LArTPC.
• generates a 2D mesh on a scene composed of one or more 3D objects.
• allows defining surface potentials on the domain of these objects.
• uses Boundary Element Method to solve the integral of the Laplace equation on this domain.
• evaluates the solution at points in the volume.
• interprets solutions as 3D electrostatic potential producing an Electric drift field.
• interprets solutions as 3D Shockley-Ramo weighting potentials and associated drift field.
• steps through the drift field using adaptive Runge-Kutta evaluating the weighting potential and collecting instantaneous currents induced on the electrodes.
• provides data provenance, bookkeeping, conversion and visualization for these above steps.

More information is provided under ./docs/ including:

• Install the software.
• Run the command line interface.
• Configure the steps.
• Exporting the data into different formats.
• Interactively using the package.
• Speed can be an issue.
