We will meet in TL 2221 on Wednesday August 5 at 3:30 pm EST.
For those calling in we'll use the Blue Jeans [1] audio conference system.
Phone number: 1-888-240-2560 Meeting ID: 3528502673# Moderator Passcode: 5978# Meeting URL: http://bluejeans.com/3528502673
Agenda:
1- Bubble Chamber progress at JLab
2- Laser Shuttering
- Would like to use a mechanical shutter (100% extinction); John will build a control box that uses TLL signal on BNC cable (TTL=high=close=beam OFF, TLL=low=open=beam ON)
- Alternatively use an electro-optic shutter (>1000:1 extinction, but fast rise/fall times <5ns)
- repurposes cell in optical path, so more invasive and more work installing HV driver, control circuit)
