1. Is the blueprint in Gabor's repository up-to-date? (https://github.com/pgpapp/pcT-ReadOut/blob/main/CarbonCarrierWithCables_B.png)
  2. The blueprint states a height of 165.9 mm for the chip area. This does not make sense in any of my computations. The bottom part goes out to 83.15 mm, while the top ends at 83.05 mm, leading to a height of 166.2 mm. Is it just a mistake in the blueprint or am I missing something?
  3. In the blueprint, the vertical position is asymmetric. When rotating the second half layer, there is an offset of 0.1mm, increasing the total height to 166.3 mm. Is this how it is interpreted or is the vertical offset from the center not being rotated with the second half layer?
  4. What readout rate should we assume for conversion (5µs)?
  5. How to combine multiple readouts in the same layer and what are the foundational theories for this? Helge simply sums the edep and averages the position, is this fine for now?
  6. When a readout happens at a point where there is overlap, do we simply duplicate the edep to both chips? This would magically create energy, but it may be negligible compared to what is lost in the aluminum absorber.
  7. What happens to hits in areas not directly covered by pixels? Should we still create a cluster and activate the pixels that are reached by that cluster or simply ignore the hit?
  8. There is technically an air gap between front and back chip layers. If the particle comes in at a certain angle, it may hit only one of the chips despite the position being in an overlapping area. Should this be accounted for or do we ignore the air gap and assume the chips to all be in the same z-position?

Conclusion: We need to clarify the measurements in order to create a more accurate simulation setup and then most of the other questions are clarified
