Add incident angle dependence to DIRC mirror reflectivity #191

Open jrstevenjlab opened 3 years ago

jrstevenjlab commented 3 years ago

At today's DIRC meeting we discussed the need for applying an incident angle dependent reflectivity for the DIRC mirrors to match the data we've collected for the borosilicate/UV enhanced mirrors with an air gap. Currently a single reflectivity vs wavelength for each mirror is provide in the material description in hdds.

Adding this issue to the stack so we don't lose track of it and mentioning @rdom, since he had some suggestions on how to include this in the SteppingAction. And as a reminder to myself that the normal vector to the mirrors is computed already in the hit processing here https://github.com/JeffersonLab/HDGeant4/blob/49f42c364ae0530b9cd21e07dca2b14c52345cd0/src/GlueXSensitiveDetectorDIRC.cc#L191
