Review of minutes from the February 13 meeting
We went over the minutes.
- Thomas did the ML training on Ashley's labeling. It does well, though it could benefit from a larger training sample for some low-probability cases. Still it is 95 to 96% accurate. He will present some slides next time.
- The slides that Ashley Ernst showed at last week's collaboration meeting on Richard's simulations of the shield had received another iteration from Richard beyond what was shown at the last meeting. Both conditions were done without the DIRC[?].
DIRC "Shielding"
Sasha showed a slide where he plotted the ratio of scaler rates in the horizontal TOF counters between two runs, with-DIRC and before-DIRC, with-DIRC rates in the numerator, before-DIRC in the denominator. Note that the inner four counters had their HV turned of during the with-DIRC run. The shadow of the DIRC is clearly visible. He will be doing further studies to extend these results.
Upgrade Plan
Sasha reported that Paul Eugenio has been ordering material for prototype light guides.
