- Announcements
- Review of Action Items
- Monitoring Update (Athens)
- Found new LED to be used for monitoring
- Previous tests with Winston cones gave a ratio of Far/Near ~ 3.5
- New tests with trapezoidal guides measured ratio F/N ~ 4.1 - 6.4
- LEDs are non-focusing, so gluing or grease seems to increase collection.
- Zisis: There seems to be sufficient light, so propose to place LED in hole without grease but secure the board to the light guide.
- Light guides from Chile have been processed though customs and checking with boards for space requirements. Will double check the space and position of the holes.
- Christina: request that we send them more SiPM for further detailed testing. They request 4-6. Elton said that sensors may not be the problem, but we need to check on availability of electronics.
