FCAL - no report
BCAL
- Timing resolution; no questions
- Richard's report. It was agreed that Andrei, Beni and Richard (and anybody else interested) would connect through video conference to discuss this work. Zisis will post the time and date to halld-cal.
- Zisis gave a report on MC activities in Regina. A talk will be given at the collaboration meeting.
Fiber specs:
- We need to order more fibers, and now 4-m length ones for more reliable extraction of attenuation length.
- George and Elton will work together on the fiber specs to include the testing protocol.
Action Tracker/Costbook
George and Zisis are going to Alberta on April 28-30 to discuss the MOU and all related details for the construction of the BCAL modules.
- Costbook: nothing specific, but there are concerns on currency fluctuation and prices of European and Japanese items. The project has contigency for these things.
Calibration: George V. gave a report. Most parts are in and tests should start soon. George V. ran through the plans and hopes to have results in a few weeks.
