Detector (John)


Alignment

-detector aligned

-need to add appropriate units to plots

-need to look at pedestal vs. time

Gain Balancing/Resolution

-gain balancing using Minuit

-resolution ~22%

-need to study stability

-break up data into groups and by detector

-see if signal's peaks are similar

Timing

-width of time difference between trigger and signal ~1.5 ns

-need to look at timing between pairs of blocks in same events

-is there an effect of pulse height?


DAQ (Alex)

-need thresholds and pedestals to run in pulse modes

-start using pulse modes now

-scalars should be done soon, will need FPGA reprogramming

-will integrate with Hall B DAQ when Sergey returns

-need to add additional remote scintillators before Hall B integrated running

-need to think about how to trigger/timing will work with Hall B integrated running
