The plot is empty, and the requested binning (20×20) seems to be ignored.

LSCAN doesn't seem to work in the Pisa/Geant-3 environment, but see added notes below on the equivalent Root procedure.





(Added 31 Oct 2008:)

From Zhengyun You, using the root GeoManager:

    root -l fvtxgeom.root (see these instructions)
    PHENIX->GetVolume("SIEN")->LegoPlot()
    or for more control:
    PHENIX->GetVolume("SIEN")->LegoPlot(20,0.,180.,  60.,0.,360., 0.,100.,"")  
                        ranges:            theta        phi          r
    To get it in a plain 2D plot, as shown here:
    TH2F *h2 = PHENIX->GetVolume("SIEN")->LegoPlot....
    h2->Draw("lego")
    
    
Volume SIEN is the overall VTX/FVTX enclosure.

This plot shows the barrel between θ=65-120°. This is slightly asymmetric, so you can see the barrel φ structure, with gaps top (90°) and bottom (180°). Also visible is a small 1/cos(θ) dependence, and at θ=120° some more material kicks in.

From Maki Kurosawa, VTX software meeting 31 oct 2008 ppt, this plot (in black):

I added in blue the θ-range shown in the lego plot. Thickness is 9-10%. If I take a slice from the lego plot between 124°-214°, and lay it over this graph (red) I come out a few percent higher (probably beam pipe, outer enclosure?).

A good match.
