Future Plans

Most probably on Thursday (October 27 2022) will be an access to the Hall-D. We are planning to change the HV dividers (to those with no pre-amplifier) and increase HV (from 1000 V to 1100 V) on the 3x3 prototype in order to improve the photodetection efficiency. Everything is ready to go to the Hall. Since there is no paper-based instruction for all this procedure, I'll try to make one for the future tests. https://userweb.jlab.org/~yeran/SciGlass/Towers+5mm+3mm.pdf
