The beam enters from the left in this figure, and passes through the 5-mm hole in the active collimator (the left half of the figure) before reaching the front face of the primary tungsten collimator located at the vertical midplane in the figure. The inner steel insert is inside a 5-mm hole through a tungsten block, which in turn is placed inside the larger lead collimator that surrounds it. The figure shows a beam photon that interacts in the steel collimator and generates a shower that gets absorbed in the collimator material.}}{3}{}} \newlabel{colgeom}{{1}{3}{}{}{}} \newlabel{LastPage}{{}{3}} \@writefile{lof}{\contentsline {figure}{\numberline {2}{\ignorespaces Simulated photon beam spectrum for all photons exiting the diamond radiator (left) and for all photons that reach the GlueX liquid hydrogen target (right) with the steel insert installed in the 5-mm tungsten primary collimator. }}{4}{}} \newlabel{beamspectra}{{2}{4}{}{}{}} \@writefile{lof}{\contentsline {figure}{\numberline {3}{\ignorespaces Spectrum of the 3\% of all particles in the photon beam that reach the GlueX liquid hydrogen target, having been generated through interactions somewhere between the radiator and the GlueX target.
