GLAST Detector Description Documents

Tables derived from XML description

last rtag
Combined (all subsystem) constants Combined (all subsystem) constants, segmented CAL Detector materials summary Detector materials summary, finer ("Recon") geometry Overlaps diagnostic

Warning: "last rtag" should be taken with several grains of salt: it's often out of data. Similar information can be found for earlier tags. For latest constants output, see recent Release Manager HEAD or tagged builds of GlastRelease. Click on a particular Linux build and look for a link labeled xml geometry parameters.
