Table of component values:

Machtay_20200831_Asym_Length_and_Angle    10 individuals
Machtay_20200911_Symmetric                             10 individuals, fewer neutrinos
Machtay_20200914_Asymmetric_50_Individuals  50 individuals, fewer neutrinos
Machtay_20200929_Asymmetric_test_2               50 individuals, fewer neutrinos, broaden parameter range

This is a plot made from the AREA project with full Arasim implementation. It can be seen that the Veff of any individuals is not what I would consider "good", nor is it really rising, it is quite flat. This is because in this version of AREA, the gain pattern at each frequency is generated differently than each other frequency, there is no correlation. This is known and actively being corrected. This plot is of old data and was just made for two reasons: to make sure that the violin plotting script works for AREA, to display this early form of AREA that has been adapted for full Arasim.

This run was done with 50 total individuals per generation, across 36 generations. Each individual was tested with 4 seeds of 10,000 neutrinos, for a total of 40,000 neutrinos. For each new generation, 25 individuals were created with roulette crossover, 8 with roulette mutation, 9 with tournament crossover, and 8 with tournament mutation.

This plot is further detailed in Julie Rolla's doctorate thesis.

individual 32 in gen 20 and individual 35 in gen 27 look promising (they have Veff > 8)

1. Fix the functions for the SLPC, SCPL, and PLSC L networks (change the paramaters to match with the format of our data)

2. Write the PCSL function

3. Create a function to find the number of L networks necessary (N) given a source and load resistance as well as a frequency range.

4. Write a function to broadband match two impedances given a source, load, central frequency, and N. (return a list of capacitances and inductances for the L networks)

Installing IceMC:

I: Getting anitaBuildTool

Clone the anitaBuildTool repository (https://github.com/anitaNeutrino/anitaBuildTool) to your user.

• git clone https://github.com/anitaNeutrino/anitaBuildTool

II: Get the Anita.sh file onto your user.

 Either copy the file from /users/PAS1960/dylanwells1629/Anita.sh

• cp /users/PAS1960/dylanwells1629/Anita.sh ~

or create a new file Anita.sh with the following code

# .bashrc

# Source global definitions

if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then

. /etc/bashrc

fi

#this modules were originally loading in both the env.sh, and bashrc_anita.sh files. This was redundant so it was added here, and removed from the others.                                          

 module load gnu/7.3.0

Then source the file

• source Anita.sh

Note: You will need access to PAS0654 for this step or you will get a permissions error.

III: Running the build tool.

Go into the anitaBuildTool directory

• cd anitaBuildTool

And run the building script

• ./buildAnita.sh

Note: There will be an error if you source files for running Ara in your .bashrc

Comment these out and restart your terminal before running the build. (remember to source Anita.sh before running the build tool. You could also source Anita.sh in your .bashrc)

Error if you source files for running Ara:
