SUMMARY NOTES
FRAME (Carlos)
- Discussion of assembly status and temperature control system
- proposed numbering scheme: start with bottom left and go up (view from back of detector)
- Good progress with the assembly
- getting ready to ship towards end of the year
- some issues, e.g. pipe material and flexibility, with cooling identified and resolved
DSG UPDATES (Aaron)
- All cables ordered
- CAEN HV testing
- all channels so far respond as expected
- EPICS screen development ongoing
- Control screens
- numbering should be consistent with the one proposed by Carlos
- Interlock system
- temperature scanning system
MECHANICAL/DESIGN (Steven)
- Making good progress - some of the ordered parts are starting to arrive
- Paulo has been working with Walter about storing location
FAST ELECTRONICS GROUP UPDATE (Brad S.)
- Full update at next meeting by Chris Cuevas
- Cables:
- RG58 cables - vendor started fabrication (2200 cables), should be ready end of year
- All HV equipment should be there
- Work in SHMS hut
- need two racks, one additional rack has to be moved in
- Reflector shaping tool - waiting for update from Vladimir/Josh
- Chiller unit placement - proposal: on beam left of SHMS, length of chiller lines is 8.2m (detector moving back and forth - need flexible lines), needs less shielding this way
- Space for assembly: need sketch for space needed - Brad can make a first draft
NPS SOFTWARE (all)
- shower clustering, recon done by Ho San - standalone
- worked in Hall A framework
- Action: upload shower clustering/recon codes to github, bring in Steve Wood to compile into Hall C ANa, test with some older calorimeter data
- fADC250 analysis still missing, raw waveform (not currently available)
- possible suitable codes have been used for SBS, decoding for fADC250 - could perhaps be recycled - there should be a github with that
- Action: review and make available the fADC decoding
- Performance of software
- NPS has blocks than Hall A - consider developing performance checks
COLLABORATION MEETING (All)
- Focus on discussions (identify missing pieces) rather than formal presentations
- Proposal: two half days (February 1-2, 2021)
HIGH VOLTAGE DIVIDER
- Action: check with Fernando on anode current test plans
NEXT MEETING: THURSDAY 12 NOVEMBER 2020 at 9:00AM ET
