Possible issues with lead glass module

1. Broken lead glass, see Fig. 1 (module taken from the FCAL prototype)
   • some problems can be seen by looking on the lead glass block from the side opposite to the PMT
   • lead glass module has to be disassembled; the glass block has to be replaced.
2. Issues with wrapping:
   • small damages (holes) in the Aluminized mylar, see Fig. 2. This can be fixed by using Al sticky tape, thickness < 20 um
   • Aluminum layer in the wrapping foil peels off or adheres to the glass block (penetrates into the block):
     • Fig. 3 and Fig. 4: Aluminum layer peeled off resulting in some transparent holes in wrapping.
     • Recommend to disassemble and re-wrap the lead glass block
