- Announcements
- Review of Action Items
- Talks at the Collaboration Meeting May 21-23
- Looked at proposed agenda.
- Shortened Fcal status to 15 min.
- Added two talks from USM. Will request additional 15 min for our session from Curtis.
- Update from USM
- Production manager report (Javiera Quiroz
- Plan is to ship first 400 tested units to JLab on Friday May 18
- Insurance has been purchased for the shipment
- The PDE determinations in Station 3 are not consistent. For the first shipment the PDE for all units have been measured in Station 2
- Expectation is that the PDE measurements in station 3 will be sorted out, but for now a larger fraction of units are being measured in station 2, which is producing reliable measurements
- A study of PDE from station 3 (Orlando Soto)
- Systematics of the PDE measurement in station 3
- Light source is being calibrated by fitted functions to determine the PDE, but results are not consitent
- Yi: Jlab is making a table look up for the light intensity across our setup
- Serguei: the LED and SiPM are in the same volume and affected by the same temperature changes, so they may be seeing light intensity variations of the light source.
- Light Guides (Iñaki)
- Question about the tolerances on the planar surface note on Rev 3 of the drawings. The tolerances are determined by the dimensions on the light guide
- USM is proceeding with a schedule to produce sets of 40 light guides, which populate one end of the Bcal, which will help JLab with the gluing schedule
- Fabrication of the jig for light guide A is complete and in use
- Design and fabrication of the jigs for other light guides is underway to accommodate the new schedule
- The machine for polishing is being assembled, and polishing should start next week
- The polishing is by hand, but the machine is setup with 3 types of plates corresponding to 5 micron, 1 micron and 0.3 micron polishing solutions
- The machine has a motor to regulate speeds
- Description of the setup will be prepared for the collaboration meeting next week
- USM Web Interface to DB
- Production manager report (Javiera Quiroz
- Status of Testing at JLab
- Hall-D ELOG.
- The production testing has started and 100 units have been tested. The measurements determine the PDE, DR and breakdown voltage at 15 deg C
- Monitoring (George)
- Boards for control boards (3) have been received in Athens are being populated. Will ship 2 control boards to JLab next week. One will be kept in Athens for tests.
- The new board design has protection against power surges
- A silk screen has been added so that the boards themselves are self-explanatory
- BCAL Beam Tests 2012
- Updates (Elton)
- Run 597:Event 16 (Andrei)
- Discussion of data and additional work needed
- Considerable discussion followed on the latest results from the beam test, especially related to possible effects of spectra with different biases turned on
- Yi was going to investigate the time dependence of the spectra
- Andrei: Requested that we fix the one side of the trigger paddle that had failed if there is an access. Then retake data with all biases on at Vover=1.2 and 0.9 V.
- Elton: Hope to take data with single biasses at Vover = 0.9V.
