Yield losses at tile boundaries
•Scan with the beam across the tile boundary. As expected, the yield is affected over a few mm in the vicinity of the boundary. •A simple model (all photons hitting the boundary get lost) accounts for most of the dependence
How to design radiator tiles: check losses at the tile boundary.
Reduce the fraction of tracks close to tile boundaries and corners.
