FDC Weekly Meeting
Date: August 30, 2006
Participants: Daniel, Brian
Next Meeting: Wednesday, September 6, 2006 @ 1:30 p.m.
1). Cosmic Ray Chambers:
Simon has checked the cosmic chamber signals now that alcohol has been added. Things look much better now. Several chambers are being read out and a crude calibration is in place. More work will be done when Simon gets back from vacation.
2). Small-Scale Prototype:
Comparison of chamber resolution with stretched cathodes shows now change from before (i.e. compared to the old wrinkled planes).
3). Mechanical Drawings:
Brian showed his first mechanical drawing. Not much to talk about as drawing was 0th order. Brian will continue to work on this.
4). FDC Budget:
- Brian suggested that we discuss the FDC budget for next year at
our next FDC meeting. We can then decide what we want to purchase.
- DSC will send Brian the R&D budget numbers after the meeting.
5). Circuit Board Design:
DSC reviewed with Brian details from the meeting on 8/28/06 with Chris Cuevas and Elton regarding who will work on the FDC circuit board design.
6). Load Calculations:
We agreed that it is time to start to perform the load calculations for the frames supporting the wires.
Minutes prepared by Daniel. Send any comments or corrections along.
