Two identical layers double the channel count. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.
highlighted = computed this step
Layer count multiplies cell count
There are 2 layers with 4 cells in each layer.
N channels = 2 × 4 N_{\text{channels}}=2\times4 N channels = 2 × 4 Cell lattice Finite cells set the detector length. c0 c1 c2 c3 total=8 m active=6 m cellCount=4 count pitch=2 m totalLength=8 m activeCells=3 count activeLength=6 m activeFraction=3/4 ratio layerCount=2 count channelCount=8 count
The detector exposes eight channels
The exact channel count is 8.
