Tentative Agenda

  1. Announcements
    • Starting next week, we will move the Bcal Readout meeting and Cal Working Group meetings to TUESDAY 11:00
  2. Review of Action Items
  3. Calibration
    1. Concept for Fcal settled
    2. Discussions on Bcal option underway
      • Will present concept to this group at next meeting (Mar 29)
      • Modifications include daisy-chaining LED boards together
      • Use CAN bus to communicate with control boards
      • Consideration for optimum placement of LED boards on detector, including possibly attaching 2 fibers to each LED
      • UofR will come up with some sketches that can be passed on to our designers to verify geometry
  4. BCAL
    1. Construction Status: builds, fibre QA
    2. First article testing (Yi) Result Page
  5. FCAL
    1. Construction Status: mechanical, bases - no report
    2. Drawings for Fcal structure (Tim) Sketches for comments on FCAL structure
    • Following the last meeting, Tim, Wayne, Matt and John met to go over details
      • Decision to stiffen support structure. Tim and Wayne have had discussions with designers of the support frame for the JLab Big-Cal support structure, who provided feedback to our concept
      • IU will build a prototype to test the layout with two rows of 20 bars, which will take 4 weeks.
      • Fabrication of parts will follow after incorporating feedback from the prototype.
  6. Simulations
    1. Readout segmentation (Andrei)
