General Meeting Summary 10/24/13

MRI PREPARATIONS:

• Small budget scenario for a hybrid spectrometer

• Uses 208 PbF2 from DVCS/HA and ~630 PbWO4 crystals
• Option for sufficient active high performance bases for all PbWO4 crystals

• Existing PbWO4 crystals

• HyCAL - during HD running about 600 crystals available
• CMS unused crystals (Pawel/Rolf following up on this)
