Minutes

Attending: Alex, Beni, Elton, Rory, Ilya, Mark, Jose

  1. Announcements
    • JLab seminar at noon is on g-2
  2. Action Items
  3. Experiment Update
  4. CPP and NPP Readiness Review
    • Elton reviewed paragraphs related to MWPC rates and data rates.
    • The draft was updated based on feedback from Ilya and Rory.
    • Beni noted that the thresholds for the TOF are well-below the Landau Peak and are already as low as possible above noise to maximize efficiency. We do not expect to lower them for CPP.
    • We drafted a response to the question about data rates, using the typical rates from GlueX I, which should be typical for CPP. No changes are expected due to TOF thresholds.
  5. X-rays in beam, see Log Entry 3618696
    • We sent some time on the GlueX experience with X-rays in the beam
    • It is unclear how this background may affect CPP, as it is heavily shielded by iron absorbers. Also the Pb target may be an effective filter.
    • We might wish to add a test plan during commissioning to study this background
    • Rory mentioned that Mainz has some experience with "hardening photon beams" by adding material as generate a low-energy photon cutoff.
  6. Theory Update (Jose)
    • Jose plans to complete work and document effort for the proposal.
    • He should be able to update us toward the end of the summer.
    • There are two promising undergraduates students that will work with him next fall. They will complete any unfinished calculations and fill in the documentation. It should be a nice project for them.
    • Status and plans for documenting theoretical work
  7. Calculations by Sergey Gevorkyan
    • Gevorkyan et al PRC 80 (2009) 055201
    • Elton: Sent comments via email this morning. The draft is converging. Keeping the appendix may be useful for consistency and support of detailed equations.
    • Rory: Should review the discussion around Eq. 6, where the limit is taken for large 2pi mass.
    • Rory: suggests to add data points to Fig. 3, which would add credibility to the calculation.
    • Ilya is in touch with Sergey, who is responding to several small questions.
  8. Trigger
  9. Other business
    • Rory: Eugene responded to inquiry about procedure for moving MWPCs to JLab. Here is his response
As far as I understand:
- The visit and work on site has to be approved by AD
- They have to follow the registration procedure
- In order not to stay in a local quarantine after arrival they need to be fully vaccinated 
       (the certificate may need to be presented to the Occupational MED)
- They have to do all the training including the MEDCON training, TOSP, and follow the rules 
       (masks, distancing etc)
- One has to figure out if they need to work at <6ft distance from each other. In such a case 
       PPE is needed (another training etc).
- To start the paperwork we need a more or less detailed plan.
Regards,
Eugene
