- FDC
- We talked shortly about the FDC efficiency vs drift time as discussed in the Geant4 meetings. Lubomir plans to simulate it using Garfield. Latest results from the gas measurements show much higher Oxygen contamination or Argon in the second package (0.3%) compared to the first one (0.02%). Possible explanations are high contamination (unlikely) or much lower flow due to problems with the MFC of the second package.
- CDC
- GEM-TRD
- There's progress with the large-scale GEM-TRD prototype - finalizing parameters, budget.
- Other
- Starting from the "gap" calorimeter we discussed all possible and impossible detector upgrades for GlueX.
