CPP Meeting, April 28, 2021

  • Rory presents note on construction. tries for comprehensive document, a gluex doc by the afternoon
    • electronics, schematics, parts choices, Humiseal
    • grounding scheme
    • assembly and construction
    • testing procedure
    • testing results, drift time relationship measurements with different gasses
    • operation
    • appendix with mechanical drawings
  • Rory: get eighth detector going
    • first window for coming down: week of collab. meeting
    • solo trip initially, drop off chambers
    • send Albert later (first visit to JLab for him)
  • Elton: updated ERR response document
    • cleanup done
    • incorporate ? from Ilya
    • timeline for publication
  • Elton: schedule review
    • now stuff: mechanical ordered,
    • Hai finished stuff on test stand for trigger
    • microscope: confirm high end of microscope decided, distance from window, GlueX 9 mm fro focal plane, but on focal plane for 6 GeV, does not effect maufactured pieces, still set
    • software: middle of geometry (Beni) and reconstrcution underway (simon)
  • Elton: publication schedule
    • Rory: time-scale driven by simulation, what we have is reasonable
  • Elton: responsibilities
  • Simon: pushed tracking changes to github
    • made geometry change in HDDS repository, not in CCDB yet
    • Beni will do that
  • Elton tried muons with mcwrapper, crashed early on
  • Beni: test area prep
    • EEL 126: contact made with Walt Akers and Jack Segal
    • want chambers horizontal to use scintillators as trigger
    • 90/10 by volume at STP, 5 cc/s
    • Rory will bring HV power supply
    • Need low-voltage power supply at/from JLab
  • Elton: need a meeting on electronics with Fernando, Chris, Hovanes
    • use next week Wed. 9 am slot
  • Beni: get Tim’s crew involved in physical moving of stuff
  • Andrew:
    • FCAL elasticity
    • difference between kinfit energy and measured, as a fucntion of energy
    • do a fit for an empirical correction
    • elasticity looks much better
    • at beamline meeting eugene questions a 0.04% pion contamination
