Abstract:

This document provides a set of one-page summaries for each of the
major systems in the GlueX detector. These are not meant to be
detailed, complete discussions, but rather a quick overview of the
entire detector. These summaries briefly outline the
purpose of the system, the requirements placed on the system by
physics goals of GlueX, and a brief description including channel
count. This continues with a discussion of the expected raw signals
as well as needed amplification and final readout of the detector.
A brief discussion of the current stage of R\& D is given with
outstanding questions pointed out. Finally, the groups and manpower
needed for final construction of the element are identified as
well as an estimate of the required construction time.
