DISCUSSION TOPICS

  • Design models, stress/thermal calculations
  • Engineering analysis and planning
  • TCS Updates
  • Other


PARTICIPANTS: Amy Comer, Arshak Asaturyan, Bogdan Wojtsekhowski, Rolf Ent, Gabriel Niculescu, Hamlet Mkrtchyan, Hovanes Egiyan, Josh Crafts, Tanja Horn, Steven Lassiter, Vardan Tadevosyan


CPS MAGNET/ABSORBER CONCEPTUAL ENGINEERING DESIGN (Steven)

  • Stability and controls of magnet power supply: 0.1% (100 ppm)
  • Action item: check for existing power supply
  • Magnet weight: 5 tons (without shielding)
  • Coils - no spare needed - anticipate no accessibility to magnet during experiment
  • Design for possible water leaks in copper absorber - main goal is to minimize the risk for any leaks
  • Discussion procurement tungsten copper
  • Action item: 90:10 or 80:20 - get quotes, check machining capabilities (Bogdan)
  • Aim for sending out by end of May
  • Lead blocks - at JLab in lead storage area
  • 20 tons
  • Action item: Schedule with Walter to look at some samples for surface quality etc. (Josh)


TCS UPDATES (Vardan)

  • Good progress on beam background (rates look manageable)
  • Know rates, so know what technology for GEM --> pixel based, can handle rates, but need certain threshold
  • Still need to evaluate physics background (exclusivity)
  • Action items:
  • Progress and status - key plots
  • Compare PAC comments - in proposal needs to be addressed line by line
  • Proposal draft - originally first draft was requested by May 1
  • PAC proposal submission deadline: 24 May


NEXT MEETING: FRIDAY MAY 14 AT 8AM ET
