Analytical study of energy and spatial resolutions for JUNO detector
Tasks
1)MC simulations of events using JUNO official code; 2)Study of the PMTs response in PMT-based frame (coordinates), constructing of the PMT response function (light collection map); 3)Developing fast MC on the base the light collection map, comparing it to the "full" code; 4)Selecting optimal energy estimators using fast code; 5)Applying new ideas for the position reconstruction
