Agenda

Preparation of parts for FCAL2 modules -- Sasha
- Available crystals:
  1450 (modules)
  
  32 (ready for fabrication)
  
  40 (installed on CCAL) available on March 20
  
  (some CCAL crystals from the inner part will not be used for the FCAL2)
  
  95 expect to receive from CRYTUR in May [1]
  
  Total 1617
- Wrapped crystals: 32 (Mindy)
  - George (DSG group) finished with disassembling CCAL modules and removing LMS caps. Will work on preshaping ESR reflectors for CRYTUR. The oven will be ready in a week.
  - Mindy (DSG group) solder wires to sockets (while waiting for crystals). More crystals will come from the CCAL after the run in the end of March.
  - Parts. 60 remaining PMT housings and cylinders have been ordered by Tim; should be ready for fabrication in about 2 months
Module fabrication -- Sasha
- Fabricated modules: Total 1455 (5 modules fabricated since last week)
  Currently available for fabrication: 27
Testing of PMT dividers -- Sasha / Arshak
- FCAL2 modules with dividers installed on the CCAL [2]
Installation of the FCAL2 detector -- Sasha / Arshak
- Detector installation page
- Updates from the meetings with Tim's group [3]
- Manpower and division of tasks
- Projects for summer students
- Summer Students (2023)
Light Monitoring System -- Arshak
- Update on LMS
