TEAM ACTIVITIES PRESENTATIONS
IJCLAB-ORSAY (Carlos)
- Much expertise with calorimeters design and construction - one of the most recent projects: Neutral Particle Spectrometer; also active in EIC eRD1 calorimeter consortium crystal/glass project
- Specific expertise in scintillators include:
- simulations and component characterization (light yield, transmittance, etc.) - full test bench available
- EM irradiation facility (0.01-100 Gy/min)
- Interest in readout, e.g., development of backend and frontend electronics - experience from ATLAS ASIC development
- Expertise in design and engineering
- machine shop and prototype development and fabrication
- Possible contributions to EEEMCal R&D
- mechanical
- prototypes
- (micro)electronics development
- ACTIONS:
- EEEMCal specifications - collect on the Wiki
- Prepare list of R&D items
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN CALO DESIGN (Cristiano)
- Have built a model based on observation of detector response
- detector - multi-dimensional combinatorial problem
- AI can suggest next set of parameters to investigate at each point
- Expertise
- Bayesian optimization - including early stopping criteria to optimize computing resources
- Multi-Objective Functions - Pareto front, simultaneous optimization not dominated by either objective
- Examples of ongoing projects
- AerFi - mechanical reinforcement of aerogel tiles
- EEEMCal - crystal/glass material selection optimization
- optimization could be extended to include barrel
- tracking may also need to be considered
NEXT MEETING: MONDAY 22 FEBRUARY 2021 AT 9:00AM ET
