PARTICIPANTS: Hakob, Hamlet, Josh, Yeran, Petr, Tanja, Vladimir
ON-SITE PERSONNEL
- Hakob is on site
- middle October Arthur at JLab
- Josh taking classes, but can come ~1 time per week (Fridays)
- Yeran anticipated to have EAD within the next week - will be on site at JLab then, but needs to complete required trainings and hall walk-through
- Petr is local to JLab area
- Hamlet, Vardan, Tanja are off-site
OVERVIEW OF THE BEAM TESTS PLANNED
1) SciGlass + PMT
2) SciGlass few blocks with SiPM
3) PWO + SiPM readout (Fernando) - Sasha and Vladimir
4) PWO + SiPM readout (Crytur) - CRYTUR
DEADLINES
- Complete characterization of individual blocks by 1 October (Josh, Yeran, Hakob)
- Transmittance measurement (Yeran, Josh) - complete Friday 16th
- Dimensions (Hakob) - complete by Wednesday Sept 21st
- Module assembly (Yeran, Hakob, Josh) - complete (must be ready) by Sept 27th
- Beam test with 12x1 - aim to install by 28th Sept (Yeran, Hakob, Vladimir)
- By Thanksgiving (November 23rd) complete beam test with 3x3 SciGlass array
- Selection of blocks - central block should be the one with the best characteristics
- Assemble blocks (Hakob, Yeran, Josh, Arthur)
- Test with cosmics before going into the hall (Hakob, Yeran, Josh, Arthur) - in aerogel room, dark box
- Install into the hall and QA in hall up to root file - prototype must be ready October 31st
- Coordination with Hall D (Vladimir)
- hit central, in coincidence with hodoscope, measure energy resolution
- Simulations (Petr, Vardan)
- do simulations with optical effects for 1x1, 3x3, 5x5 (Petr, Vardan)
- address issue with GEANT4 on the farm (Petr)
- additional updates to simulation (e.g., changes in emission spectrum, transmission, other characteristics) - Petr/Vardan
- CRYTUR prototype test will likely be in the last week of October
ACTION ITEMS
- Start on the items above working towards the deadlines
- Further develop the details of a test plan for beam test
NEXT MEETING: TUESDAY 27TH AT 10:00AM ET
