sPHENIX discussion of software

[shimomuramaya <maya AT cc.nara-wu.ac.jp>]

Dear Chris and others, 

Last Tuesday at sPHENIX software and simulation meeting 
(https://indico.bnl.gov/event/21969/), INTT team was asked if the support 
structure of INTT is already in sPHENIX GEANT4 or not. 

The support structures for INTT have been already |eta| <1.1 in GEANT as 
Genki presented in the same meeting two years ago. 

Here is the indico and his presentation.

As you can see in the slide, support structures are in and the materials are 
carbon (CFRP).  

I confirmed the above and the following with Genki, who implemented these. 

- cooling water and cooling tube which are at |eta|>1.1 are not implemented. 
- the cylinder which has the same amount of the material as bus-extender has 
is implemented. 

Therefore, most of the material related to INTT in the sPHENIX acceptance 
(|eta| <1.1) is already implemented. 

Best regards, 

Maya on behalf of INTT
