Items for followup from previous meeting(s)

  1. Monitoring
    • USM: Send drawings of guides to be machined (soon). Send 4 unpolished guides to UofR and 2 unpolished guides to Athens.
    • Bcal: Testing to see if LED sources can be viewed by pmts on both sides of the module (UofR/UofA).
  2. Fcal
    • Decision on rad hard detectors
    • Ashot to send type of Hamamatsu pmt used for PRIMEX
    • Elton and Ashot to meet and resolve any discrepancies between the simulations.

Discussion of Options for Radiation-Hard Insert

Options for Radiation-Hard Insert

Tentative Agenda

  1. Announcements
  2. Review of Action Items
  3. FCAL
    1. Construction status
    2. To shashlyk or not to shashlyk.
  4. BCAL
    1. Construction Status
    2. Cosmic-ray normalization runs
  5. Update on SiPM radiation hardness (Elton)
    • Time @10^8 g/s for Dark rate to increase x10 is 3.25 years (10^7 s/year) x factors
    • This corresponds to a fluence of 10^9 1MeV neutron eq/cm^2.
    • factors = self-annealing x cooling x DR/10 x temperature annealing
    • self-annealing = 2 (Measured in HallA irradiated samples, needs checking for cooled AmBe irradiated samples)
    • cooling = 3 (For non-irradiated samples DR -> 0.3 DR between 20 and 5 deg C, needs checking for irradiated samples)
    • DR/10 = 0.5, Study of degradation of threshold with dark rate. See Media:Plot threshold1.png with reference to Matt's resolution calculations
    • temperature annealing = ? (additional annealing gains by raising temp ~ 80 deg C, needs checking)
  6. Simulations
  7. Other Updates
