Items for followup from Sep 2 calibration meeting

1. Each subsystem must complete blanks in specification table.

Items for followup from Aug 18 meeting

1. George: report on trip to Edmonton
2. Estimates of pedestal width (electronic noise, etc.) for FM PMTs. The dark rate should be negligigle in this case.
3. Resolution studies with up-to-date geometry (Blake) ONGOING
4. Resolution studies with different segmentation for the outer section. - LOWER PRIORITY
5. Add F100 rad hard glass to simulation. - Matt will do this
6. Decision on Bcal sampling fraction needed by Sep. - Work by Stamatis (on vacation) will be summarized upon his return.

Documents to Review

1. Please place documents here for review in advance of meeting

Tentative Agenda

1. Announcements
2. SiPM: A35H vs A20HD 1mm devices (Media:PDEgraph.pdf)
3. Results on study of increased sampling in Bcal (Media:frac.pdf)
4. Status of simulation tasks and discussion of priorities
   • Improved simulation of resolutions
     • Include realistic threshold for FM option
     • Studies of timing resolution
   • Study impact of inactive material at the end of Bcal on acceptance
     • Inactive material includes light guides, light detector, cables, dark box or cover, etc.
     • Comparison between SiPM and FM options
     • How many (which) changes in geometry should be studied?
5. Final agenda for collaboration meeting
