Minutes

Attendees: Bill, Zisis, Phil, Tegan, Sasha, Jon, Azizah, Axel, Karthik, Liping, Jane, Olga, S.T.

• Simon gave an update on η→π0γγ signal/background studies using updated island code
  • Two parameters play off merging vs. splitting of clusters
  • Liping pointed out that Igal's presentation from previous week showed sharp cut-off in efficiency below 4 cm cluster separation
  • Igal and Simon will check for consistency, also look at quality of energy sharing between clusters
• Two technicians working on brazing brass assemblies, 2 new students working on module preparation and fabrication
• Some early modules being refurbished
• Module fabrication stalled due to missing components
  • PMT housing have all been used, new ones being annealed
  • Light guides
  • Grand total fabricated modules up to 1064
• 50 Crytur modules arriving/month
• Moving to new lab week of August 1
• 25 PMT dividers have been prepared, put on COMCAL in January?
• Student manpower for next year: Phil to look into SULI
• Liping encouraged students to apply to present contribution to FCAL2 project at upcoming DNP
  • Deadline August 2
