Production
- Dave: The first test cathode was finished using a "good" third panel. It will be tensioned nest week. The PC used for tensioning was fixed by the CC. The stringing table is now in the clean room. Some additional fixes on the strongback are needed and will be done separately outside of the clean room.
- Bill is ready with the FDC drawings needed for the review, except two on which Rich Getz is working. Dave is working on the procedures. We will post for the review all the procedures needed to start the production even if some of them are nor approved yet. The main reason is that there are some details and parameters reflecting the new design that can be establish only during the production of the first chamber layer. Still these procedures are needed for the review even if they may be changed. Bill will work on "FDC CUTTING CATHODE FOIL HOLES AND SLOTS", "FDC CATHODE GROUND FLAPS AND PANEL CONNECTIONS", "FDC END WINDOW GLUING AND TENSIONING" and also on cathode and ground tensioning, the latter require information from the tensioning done before. Dave will take care of "FDC WIREPLANE CUT WIRES AND REMOVE TAPE", "FDC FABRICATE O-RINGS", "ATTACHING THE DAUGHTER CARDS TO CATHODE FRAME", and "ATTACHING THE DAUGHTER CARDS TO THE CATHODE FOIL". We decided in the latter procedures to assume using conductive tape, of course later we can modify it if it is needed. Beni will work on "SINGLE LAYER TESTING" procedure, and Lubomir on wire position and tension measurements. Depending on the needs, Lubomir and Beni will help Dave with the other procedures, as well.
