Photos of first PrototypesTwo focussing lightguides still assembled from polishing sandwiched between thin protective plates. Some polishing material has squeezed into the gaps. Disassembly will take place once one has decided one does not want further polishing. Each acrylic glass lightguide is 50mm thick.

Optimisation routine for lightguide coefficients
End of June 2006 I have asked our Edinburgh workshop to build two of the lightguides as shown as dark blue line in the drawing to the right, each will be 50mm thick. Slight changes like a few added holes suggested by the workshop people do not affect the optical focussing.
To obtain the shape I used a macro routine to actually optimise the lightguide shape.
Run the macro from within PHYSICA. The optimisation is one iteration only, check the quality in feeding the out values into a second iteration as input values.

I still think that the Barrel can probably be read out with Time-of-Propagation.
But if photon angle measurement is required, the end of the bars
could possibly look like this with a focussing lightguide, and maybe one can get
away without correcting the fused silica dispersion: I am not happy with the focussing (sigma=0.3-0.5mm, quick hand optimisation only), and the vertical focal plane is not the best orientation either, only a compromise propagated from the Disc calculations above. Getting the focal plane perpendicular to the magnetic field may be necessary, which is good news as best focussing is achieved with somewhere between 60-80degrees and not the 90 degrees. No constraint for the focal plane orientation would be even better news... -- KlausFoehl - 06 May 2006 This page is part of DesignItems. | |||||||||
