SiPM Meeting

We reviewed notes from last week's Conference call with Hamamatsu representatives.

• Mark spoke with Werner Boeglin earlier in the week. Werner had reviewed the notes from the meeting and did not have any issues with the general direction we agreed on. He mentioned that the 4-device configuration with no light guide would probably do no worse than an arrangement with more complete coverage requiring a light guide. He also endorsed Carl Zorn's suggestion that we use 100 micron pixels for this application.
