General Meeting Summary 1/7/20

STATUS OF SUBCONVENER INVITATIONS

• 15 people were invited for the subgroups (tracking, PID, calorimetry, Far-forward detectors, Central detector integration and magnet, forward detectors/IR integration, DAQ and electronics, detector complementarity)

• Received 9 positive responses so far - one more positive response after the meeting

• some questions for clarification, e.g. about the role of subconveners, connection to the R&D Consortia, etc. - these will be addressed by email/phone or in the first meeting of Conveners+Subconveners
• Silvia: 2 phone calls (PID, DAQ&electronics)
• Ken: 1 contact (far-forward detectors)

• 5 subgroups (out of 8) have a complete set of subconveners

• Tracking
• PID
• Calorimetry (e+h)
• Forward detector/IR integration
• Detector Complementarity

• Send reminders to the remaining subconvener candidates if no response by 1/10

• Silvia: 2 emails (central detector integration, DAQ & electronics)
• Tanja: 1 email (far-forward detectors)
• Peter: 1 contact (tracking)

LIST OF CONTRIBUTORS

• Received email input from BNL, JLAB, Los Alamos, ANL, LBL, some of the R&D Consortia, and some university groups with contributor names and interests

• Information is being compiled into a list to be expanded by the subconveners

• Discussion and assignment of Conveners to respond to emails received most recently

• Silvia: ANL, LBL, Saclay
• Tanja: eRD22, BNL, SC guidance

WORKING GROUP WEB PAGE AND MAILING LISTS

• EICUG Detector Working Group web page is now available

• Ken will follow up with Thomas on details of the mailing list requests

SOFTWARE GROUP COMMUNICATIONS

• subconvener and ex-officio - Tanja replies to this email

• both roles are needed and important
• same person could do both

• Meetings with the software group - Silvia replies to this email

• core group: 22 January - suggest 12pm (ET)
• wider group: 23 January - suggest after quarterly meeting, e.g. 12pm (ET)

• valuable to meet with the simulation team to inform of the current status of the detector working group
• overall philosophy and progress on organizational structure

• Possible requests to the software group to be presented in two upcoming meetings

• Tutorials like those scheduled are the kind of support that is needed
• Important to realize that not all groups may be able to align themselves with the official software on short timescale and may present results with a temporary software
• Support with the translation of possibly new pieces of detector into the global software would be helpful
• Capability and support for substantial event generation for data sets to be specified

NEXT MEETINGS:

• MEETING WITH SUBCONVENERS MONDAY 13 JANUARY AT 12PM (ET)
• DETECTOR WG MEETING TUESDAY 14 JANUARY AT 12PM (ET) AS NEEDED
