DETECTORS AT JLAB

  • Aerogel Cherenkov Detectors (Arthur, Vardan, ...)
  • Setting up two data acquisition systems, one for NPS prototype tests in TEDF clean room, the other in EEL for HMS aerogel Cherenkov detector testing
  • communicate list of available components and what is still needed to Steve/Brad - TH send email, Arthur follow up
  • Working on SP-11 tray cosmic data taking
  • S2 hodoscope plane not fully functional, not in trigger - temporarily setup single scintillator for data taking
  • Neutral Particle Spectrometer and Compact Photon Source (Tanja)
  • Magnet corrector coil sent to JLab - should go into TEDF in space in front of cleanroom
  • Main coil should arrive end of July at JLab
  • Two experiments (WACS and K_Long) being reviewed by PAC45
  • Brief discussion of Compact Photon Source Concept and conceptual design status - more details in 6 July NPS meeting and special presentation at PAC45
  • Gluex detectors (Greg)
  • High magnetic field runs to test how magnetic field impacts sensors of the EIC DIRC detector planned for August at JLab
  • Optimization of monitoring system for transporting Babar DIRC boxed to JLab ongoing - recent changes include cameras, mounting structures
  • A 3-layer (3 refractive indices) EIC DIRC lens prototype has been ordered - test beam at CERN in August to test the optical performance


PBWO4 STUDIES AT CUA (Richard, Blessed, Casey)

  • Discussion about prototype assembly
  • mechanical assembly completed, calibration tests ongoing (vibration, rotation, weight sensors)
  • thermal assembly ongoing
  • Crystal characterization continuing
  • light yield
  • chemical analysis
  • impact of crystal surface nonuniformity on resolution/detector performance


DETECTORS AT CERN (Rishabh)

  • Discussion of an event that is tracked through the detectors including tracker, pixel
  • track alignment in software ongoing - may be related to positioning of multiple detector layers
  • Discussion about material budget analysis with CMS9 software
  • red=phase 1 upgrade, blue=phase 0


DATA ANALYSIS AND SIMULATIONS (Andres, Salina)

  • Discussion of CUA's kaon experiment in context of Hall C running over next year
  • SHMS optics commissioning and further detector checkout
  • Fall commissioning experiments may have data for initial calibration checks (need to check and negotiate kinematics)
  • Discussion of software setup and aerogel detector data analysis from KPP run in preparation for fall running (Andres)
  • Discussion of initial results from DVCS deadtime analysis (Salina)


NEXT MEETING: WED 5 JULY AT 10:00 AM (EDT)
