| − | From the geometry it is given that xdist, the distance between the line of intersection of the two end-plate planes and the target position, is equal to 8.298 cm and th_min, the angle from the target vertex to the the same line, is 4.694 degrees. Using this knowledge we can simulate this situation by having the end-plate planes intersect at the beam line axis. This action in effect would grant the sector to measure angles below ~5 degrees, which we can account for by limiting angles theta within the accepted detector range. The quantity dist2tgt, the distance from the target to the first guard wire plane along the normal of said plane, is given as 228.078 cm. Using the previous understanding of the distances between planes within a Superlayer:

| − | This gives us the distance to level 1 from the vertex (0,0,0) as 228.078 cm+3(0.3861) cm=229.2363 cm in the positive z direction along the beam line. Using the fact that the wire planes are at 25 degrees to the beam line, we can approximate sector one as triangle that intersects with a line perpendicular to the beam line at the vertex position of (0,0,0) along the bisector of the triangle. While this is beyond the physical constructs of the experimental design, we do this mathematical simplicity. This again is acceptable in that angles beyond the physical limitations of 40 degrees will not be simulated. From the geometry of a hexagonal pyramid, we can see that the quantity h should be

| − | When the scattering angle theta, which is measured with respect to the beam line, is held constant and rotated through 360 degrees in phi, a cone is created. Using Mathematica, we can produce a 3D rendering of how the sectors for Level 1 would have to interact with a steady angle theta with respect to the beam line, as angle phi is rotated through 360 degrees.

| − | Here we will make use of Dandelin spheres to help determine the ellipse components with reference to the cone created at a constant theta. The basic construction of using Dandelin spheres is that within the cone, there are two spheres which are tangent to the plane as well as tangent to the cone as shown below in the xz plane. The Dandelin method picks an arbitrary point,P, on the intersection of the cone and the ellipse's plane. Drawing a line from the cone vertex through the point P, the directrix lines are intersected as shown below at D1 and D2. From the geometry as shown in the xz plane, it is shown that the line segments F1P=D1P and F2P=D2P since they share a common line segment, all three angles, and both have a the respective Dandelin radius as parts of the triangles they form.
