Agenda

• Preparation of parts for ECAL modules -- Sasha
  • Crystals:

    - Received 70 crystals from SICCAS. Visual inspection: 4 dim crystals, 8 with many chips (consider to send them back to SICCAS) [1][2]

    - Plan to send back about 10 crystals

  • Received 1100 short signal cables [3]
  • Procurement parts for the LMS:

    - Waiting for 7,600 ft of optical fibers. PR department prepared PO but forgot to send it out

• Module fabrication -- Sasha
  • All modules have been fabricated, checked, and inventorized (about 1610 modules in total)
• Ongoing projects -- Sasha, all
  • Visual inspections of fabricated modules [4] - done
  • All crystals moved to Hall D[5] [6][7] - done
  • Tested, labeled, and bundled all 100 (+ 2 spares) [8] signal cables connected from the flash ADC to the patch panel [9] - done
  • Test and label 1100 short signal cables - ongoing
  • Tested fabricated modules using LMS [10] - done (need to update the wiki page)
  • Cutting optical fibers and gluing plastic caps [11], waiting for 7600 ft of optical fibers
  • Work on refurbishing LG modules rejected during installation

    - Fixed about 120 modules with different small issues: soldering compound bumps on the brass assembly, small bubbles on silicon cookies, small issues with wrapping

  • Detector installation page
  • Updates from the meetings with Tim's group [15]
  • Discussion of the FCAL2 installation procedures [16]
  • Final mapping of low-voltage cables
  • Mindy continues with wrapping crystals and soldering wires to sockets.
  • Projects for summer students
  • Summer Students (2023)
• Light monitoring system -- Arshak
• Discussion on the budget request for 2024 -- Sasha (all)
