This package contains a collection of optical properties of materials used in the LEGEND experiment.
As a common interface, each optical property gets its own defining function in
the material's module. Those functions can be used directly to just retrieve the
value(s) of the property. Most property definitions contain unit information via
the pint package. For a full list of defined
properties refer to the
package documentation.
To ease the use in Geant4-based simulations, every module also provides
functions to be used with pyg4ometry.
These functions' names are always prefixed with pyg4_. All other functions of
this module can be used without having pyg4ometry installed.
Note
The provided functions for interoperability with Geant4 generally only support Geant4 version 11.0 and later..
