upgrade R&D meeting
BNL room 2-84 PO, at 14:15 (GMT), duration : 00:00
As advertised earlier the main purpose is to have presentations, and discussion on various R&D project for the future, both for the later part of the decade and the eSTAR/EIC era.
Of particular importance are plans and ideas that fall within the STAR plans for the next decade as outlined in the decadal plan document, and the eSTAR era. This encompasses, as examples tracking, calorimetry, PID for STAR forward upgrades in the later part of the decade, and electron tracking and identification in the eSTAR era (i.e. low momentum (1-6 GeV/c) at backward rapidities.
The meeting will have short presentations, and there will be amble time for discussions.
Agenda
Welcome & Introduction
Oleg Tsai, UCLA
“R&D for ScFi calorimetry andSTAR forward instrumentation upgrades"
Nikolai Smirnov, Yale
“Upgrade in the Forward Direction”
Bernd Surrow, MIT
“GEM Tracker Ideas”
Zhangbu Xu, BNL
“DAQ10k for STAR”
Open Forum and Discussions:
Ernst Sichterman, LBNL
“eSTAR Needs and Ideas”
The latter talk also forms the basis for the STAR presentations at the EIC workshop on the 11th of March.
Speakers Please add your talks as file attachments.
